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.

I actually finished this recently, and to me, the old abilities were almost completely irrelevant. There are legitimately times where you might think that wonderwing is the solution to something, but arbitrarily is programmed to not work.

I still really like BT, and even prefer it over the first in some aspecta. However, it is a perfect example of how powerups were implemented poorly back then (and even today). Instead of powerups enhancing the core gameplay loop, they are just keys to solve shallow puzzles. "Oh, there's a crack in the wall? Shoot it with a grenade egg." This is why Mario games have much more emphasis on evolving gameplay through level design rather than character abilities.
