From according to yt, that was him in 2017. This is the clearest I could (quickly) find, others are just low res webcam things.

Subtle dig on Nick Land not being relevant anymore considering that drawing is of him 30+ years ago.

Lol yeah I was thinking about either posting about cognitive dissonance or mentioning that trying to find the kernels of corn in shit still means you are digging through shit. Cognitive dysentery is so much better.

Wonder if the sinister look was demanded by the clients or the person doing the design.

I have strong feelings on research students who are not able to learn how to write bash and python etc scripts.

A humanoid robot with a cloth cover feels really iffy. That thing will smell like hell.

It has some usage if your don't care about quality or consistency. See the vibe coders. Firing most of your team because a lot of unimportant stuff can be vibe coded (and your customers are locked in and nobody in management knows what a Trust Thermocline is), and then suddenly openAi drives up prices, causing the secondary company to go poof or also raise prices. And suddenly you are left with a garguantuan mess that you can no longer properly afford. A technical debt accelerant. I mean people are using this shit, even if we know it is shit (and they might also knwo it but it is forced from above).

Of course if you believe in markets these badly run companies will go under invisible hand etc etc.
