I didn't say I think it's art. I don't know if it is, and I don't really care if it is or not. I also don't care if it's called art. I'm just saying the mental gymnastics of trying to convince someone that something like programming as art is cringe.

I certainly don't disagree with the points made in the video. It in fact points out something related to what I'm saying. He states he notices that people that claim something is not art are often gatekeeping something from becoming "elevated." I'm extending the converse argument: many people trying to claim something is art are trying to elevate it to a new status.

My problem with calling programming art is not that I don't think programming is art, but rather that I think that label is not useful in this context. Programming is something that is very much valued without that label. Thus adding the label is just an attempt to tack on unneeded elevation to the craft. In some ways the video supports my viewpoint. The debate over what is art is a bit tired. It's worth having, but personally I don't think it is needed in this case.

I have put on that much muscle. I just refuse to buy any kool-aid that's being sold to me. Maybe they should bring proof instead of spreading trends blindly?

Gym bros misquote this as a gram per pound, which is just a ridiculous amount of protein.

Evil Dead is not a slasher.

Air Bud is a dog movie on the surface, but has a surpisingly well done underlying story of a boy struggling with the loss of his father.

Did you hear about updoc?

That is abnormal imo. Americans do not generally like "squishy" or "slimy" textures, which eggplant tends to have even when cooked properly. I've always thought of eggplants as being more popular among East Asians.

Eggplant (from an American perspective)

Salted Licorice

A newer one: Strange Darling

Good movie
