cutups··on AI promised less work. I've never worked more
I'm more productive, but yeah, not working less. It's really going to come to a head when our team is due for a raise and we've done 4-5x* the work with the same team over the past year.

* That number isn't vetted, but it's my guestimate.

cutups··on Why Scrum is stressing you out
Ill say that for me and my team, implementing SCRUM has worked well and overall reduced stress.

We have a lot of control about what we pull in and the issues in out backlog, and if we need to designate prep work, we put it in as a spike.

The only time i really have work stress is when we have to many interrupts, but SCRUM has a process for buffering for that and I find that very effective for telling the story when that happens.

So it sounds like I am a SCRUM fan, and I am, but i would def be open to hear about other systems that teams use who have tried SCRUM and prefer their new solution.

cutups··on The Mystery of the Bloomfield Bridge
I wonder how many "Bloomfield Bridges" there are in the world. I saw this headline and wondered if it was about the Bloomfield Bridge in Pittsburgh, PA. I clicked on the article and saw the pedestrian bridge, which looks extremely similar to a pedestrian bridge that ends right by the Bloomfield Bridge in Pittsburgh, but clearly just happenstance
cutups··on Make-A-Video: AI system that generates videos from text
I was thinking about something like this site, but also taking some randomized existing plot outlines to generate specific stills from each part of the plot. Might require isolating character archetypes too?

Great work with this as is!

cutups··on Than Average
I could imagine somebody who is pretty self aware could judge their taste in music to be worse than average, if they really only ever buy music from artists that they are later embarrassed by.

But in general, I think this would skew towards people having the preference for their preference.

cutups··on Than Average
Went through these, and I wish I had an "about average" response for many of them. Pleasant interface for this sort of thing!
cutups··on Building a personal website in 2021
Sometimes I wish I had a website that was just a collection of everything I've shared or written on other platforms, just fully under my control and backed up for later. Is there anything that can spider content based on providing integration creds with various platforms?
cutups··on Massively Multiplayer Online Drum Machine
So the input to this is posts at their twitter account from your twitter account?
