I did not know much context about the specifics, and I just informed myself, and I have to see I entirely disagree with you. Betrayal, control and alienation are exactly what informs Kafka's request . Faith (in his friend, in art) and

I think more than curiosity, in a case like this, it's the matter of the artistic merit. I don't think the sons would have published this if they didn't feel it was worth doing so. Good Black Mirror premise tho.

I don't think it should be surprising, I'd say good artists often enjoy a wide variety of styles, and it's not unusual for their favorite artists to be their complete opposite, perhaps that's precisely why they're t

Would you say that honor is worth more than now having the works of Kafka available for all of humanity to read? What would human kind have gained from not having read The Metamorphosis or The Trial and so many others?

Slow is good, it's covering spans of millennia. This is not the book-endorsement I was looking for but I won't shun it either.

Regardless of that, not being able to select multiple layers at once (in GIMP) is downright inexcusable.

I know the film sequel is shunned (and I presume rightfully so) but does the same apply about the book?

I spent a long time searching, and then trying to invent my own "perfect" system. Where to archive done items, how to organize item priorities, what date format to use, etc. I saw the system as this external thing that if I could

There should be a collective shift towards making art for art itself, and for one self, in the same way that yoga and meditation are encouraged. Comparing end products and foregoing the process itself, people don't know what they'

What's fairly clear to me is that it's not designed to be read. At least my own, it's just too easy to end up with an almost doctor's hand writing. I refuse that on principle. I had a similar click as you describe in sta

And they've yet to release season 3 of Nirvanna the Band the Show. Unacceptable.

Completed your inner journey? I don't think there's an end to the inner journey.

ime it's a journey of knowing yourself. If you adopt this person's workflow it won't work for you, but if you try something similar, start small and gradually add more organization, you might end up with something that works

From electron instances everywhere, to the niche suckless philosophy, so much of software seems to be programmer-first. Truly missing the forest for the trees.

First of all no one declared themselves a virtuous pacifist. People don't participate in murder and they think others shouldn't either. People don't participate in wars (which are essentially large scale murder) and they thin

I mean, the same applies to scams, scams only work if people believe them.

That's kind of like saying that not being a murderer only has moral value if you're constantly under mortal threat yourself.

Thanks for the details. I'm very far away from this world but it's always been my suspicion that that is what it takes. As for your last point, I think if you amass a certain amount of money then you can eventually just get out of
