It'll probably take some time for the Powers That Be to figure out that AI is not the tool to address it.

DuckDuckGo allows you to turn all AI off--at least, it seems to, I haven't checked its work. Obviously, it'd just be turned off in the search results themselves, it wouldn't do anything about whatever pages you landed on.

It's a kinda tossed off line in Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, a (IIRC) Classical radio station programmer gets cornered by a logician and a semantics professor who team up to prove that the phrase "too much Mozart" makes no logical sense. Or something similar. I often pair it with...

Fair, but in comparison to the hard vacuum, the environment on Earth is much more damaging to many thing.

I suppose it was a deep cut, but I was referencing Douglas Adams. Though I can see getting to either or both of those.

"Too many crime novels" makes as much sense as "too much Mozart."

Not voting because there's too much overlap and it's not clear I can vote for more than one thing. A) I just level the PCs up, we don't bother with XP. B) I level the PCs up after they accomplish things in the narrative. C) I usually make an effort to get the PCs to level 2 by the end of the...

I might not have been clear. My wife has read several of Leong's books and enjoyed them all. Turns out she's also read Durst. Vernon might be a possibility, though.

My wife has enjoyed those books immensely. I'll forward your recs to her. Thanks!

What I was getting at was that both of those are very much "story genres," and it's ... well, it was certainly beyond the capabilities of the author of the books I saw inside of to fulfill both of them adequately, if that makes sense. A given novel only has so much story-space, and the two story...

Maybe it's a rakshasa?

I gotta admit, that wasn't the misconception I was expecting, given the subject and area.

Yeah, professionals with full schedules tend to strongly dislike folks who blow off an appointment without calling.

I'm not the person you're replying to, but Romance and ... Supernatural Thriller (not Horror). I've seen that attempted and the attempts I've been unfortunate enough to see inside have been (metaphorically) pulled apart by trying to please both masters (so to speak). Like, because each...

That hardly seems like something they'd hate. No-showing seems more detestable.

The idea that "farmer" is inherently something like "Old Order Amish" is obviously wrong and probably a problem.

OR AT LEAST PUNCTUATION

I have in my head that there are genres of setting and genres of story. Hartwell's point, as you describe it, seems like a different way to express that idea. Hartwell was an excellent anthologist, as well as a superb critic (not reviewer, critic) and I'm happy to have somehow had a thought...

It's not wildly unusual, in Horror, for the stories to get less interesting when the monsters explicitly show up.
