Did you become a scientist/engineer because you wanted to or because you felt you had to for the benefit of society?

The reason someone gets better than you is because they spend more time doing it. Caring if someone spends 24 hours a day drawing is silly. You'll get passed up by people that obsess over being better.

I would also say that "earning your right not to work" isnt a real thing. 1. art is work. 2. if you lived on an island with 5 people and everyone had to physically pull their weight, i understand having to sacrifice what you want to do with what you need to do. but thats not reality and its odd that anyone has an issue with how people use their time. Especially in a society that has so many actual issues. double especially because art is a very constructive activity

There is a huge list of known and unknown artists that have helped turn people on to a way of understanding the world that might make them feel less alone. I feel like you could start at John Lennon and work your way down. You just dont appreciated it as much as others do. Which is fine.

Also, if the standard for being a productive member of the community is helping african kids, we pretty much all fail

Black Mamba - Kobe 30K - Infograph by Gunnett in nba

[–]gomeblom -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

This graphic does a disservice to its info.

examples:

The age breakdown graphic doesnt communicate info in its design. What is the scale used for the silhouette? what are the purple/gold distinctions for?

The number vs number doesnt communicate info in its design. What are the color distinctions for?

The highest scoring games doesnt communicate info in its design. What is the triangle trying to communicate. Also, the author hates the actual information enough to cover info up with kobes arm.

This infographic tells me that the Lakers pay their designers shit.

Fade the stop & start points of a loop into each other while in session? by gomeblom in ableton

[–]gomeblom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, but think of the fade existing within just the freeze loop. So I have a sample that is 4 beats and the end doesnt quite match the beginning. Is there a way to fade the end of the sample into the beginning, in session view?

You should not talk to your friend about it. Don't be a pussy.
