Obsession + pattern recognition + not giving a f*ck + delusional optimism is the highest form of intelligence.

In a weird way, everybody is rooting for you. When you go to a job interview, the interviewer wants you to be amazing so they don’t have to look anymore. when you go on a date, the person wants to have an amazing date with you. If you make a piece of content, people want to see amazing pieces of content and they have no problem if it’s yours.
the instant you get into the mindset that people want you to do well, your entire world gets better. And you’ll be shocked to know this pattern keeps repeating in different areas of life.

This is actually kind of wild because once you hear it laid out like this you can’t unhear it. The 90s “wow… yeah” sarcasm and the early 2000s vocal fry on conference calls hit way too close to home. Armisen’s ear is disgusting in the best way.
Fred Armisen breaks down the fascinating evolution of conversational accents and speech patterns decade by decade on The Tonight Show.
"I've been working on some impressions of accents through the decades"
1900s: "the manufacturer and the farmer, people thought it was very British, but it's actually very Dutch and German"
1920s: "They start getting very aware of the microphone"
1950s: "It starts to flatten out a little bit. I'd like to on a Friday night, I'd like to read a book on a Friday night"
1960s: "Diverges a little bit where there's an official sort of news hour... and then the sort of people in interviews looked like they were in shock"
1970s: "There's a whisper to it. There's a sort of confusion as to what's going on, there's a whisper"
1990s: "Very kind of laid back, wow, the nineties laid back, yeah, very sarcastic and ironic, wow"
2000s: "You start to hear the vocal fry... guys are in a meeting and they can sort of hear that throughout when they're talking on a conference call"

Last night, @higgsfield sent @ComfyUI a cease and desist (attached)
They want the Open Source Higgsfield challenge taken down within 48 hours.
Their argument is that our use of the Higgsfield name and that using their CEO's likeness is an infringement violation (man, the irony). Claiming that it makes the event look like Higgsfield is associated with it.
This couldn't be farther from the truth, which is that Higgsfield made a promise to open source its product and never did.
For the past two weeks, builders have been recreating popular closed apps as open workflows anyone can run.
So we asked our community to deliver where Higgsfield failed: apps in the open, built by the community, for the community. We've made it clear that the challenge is organized by ComfyUI and not affiliated with or endorsed by Higgsfield.
When we started Comfy, we made the community a promise. Our product stays open, free, and yours. We’ve kept it every day since, and one letter isn’t going to change that.
The challenge stays up. Comfy and open source will win!

Werner Herzog on psychoanalysis: “If you harshly light every last corner of a house, the house will be uninhabitable. It’s like that with your soul.”
Only Herzog could make a metaphor about darkness sound this profound.
