Wildwood would have been incredible even if it was made only with 3D CG, the fact that it’s stop motion only makes it 10 times more impressive. Laika really outdid themselves again. Truly an incredible piece of art. A handmade masterpiece desperately needed in a time where A/I runs so rampant.

Here's Discord's article about the specifics of the changes they're rolling out that will index the text of public-facing channels in discoverable servers. Most servers aren't discoverable (and communities have to opt in to be that anyway), and this never applies to DMs, group chats, etc.

Someone ran a hello world program through Claude, and because the dogshit can only yes, and and then regurgitate stuff statistically similar to what was stolen to train it, it kept endlessly complicating and over-engineering the *one line* program into an unmaintainable clusterfuck.

the way the user has to go back and forth with the bot to get something resembling desired output looks suspiciously like something you'd design if your target audience were gambling addicts
