there are scores of films that have achieved sales above $150M on a budget between 20 and 30M, so there's nothing special in that department either.

"Others have also succeeded; this means the very successful thing I don't like is bad." is the dumbest thing I've read so far today. (And yes that is exactly what you MEANT even if it isn't exactly what you wrote. Shut up.)

Comment Re:Why the hate for COBOL? (Score 1) 113

So why aren't people who are getting into the computer programming industry learning COBOL?

I know a lot of people who are "in the computer programming industry" and the thing is... they're all kinda really stupid. And for proof of their stupidity you can just look at computer programs: they're about 100% dogshit in the stupidest possible ways.

When they say "made modernization cost-prohibitive", what it actually means is "it's not worth it to change". It all works. It works fine (demonstrably). It's not something that needs to be changed but costs too much to change, it's something stupid people WANT to change but can't justify it to shareholders.

Comment Re:How does one distinguish AI art from non-AI art (Score 1) 45

Read the article. It assumes

* The article implies it's possible to distinguish between AI art and art made without AI. In other words, if someone at ComicCon were to present AI art as non-AI art, it would be possible to distinguish between the two. I don't know if this is true. If it isn't, then this policy of banning AI art may only result in people saying that the art isn't AI generated, when it is.

This is fine though, since if your art looks like it MIGHT POSSIBLY be "AI"-generated, it's dogshit.
