Are contemporary technologies like GPS, phones, and AI deskilling the human body ? “In surrendering to a quick technological fix, we are, moment by moment, doing less sensing, navigating, remembering, walking, choosing, and attending.”

Let’s get this out of the way: Olivia Colman will be great as Mrs. Bennet in the new Pride and Prejudice series; here’s the trailer . But the rest of it has some awfully large shoes to fill — both the 1995 and 2005 adaptations are rightly beloved.

Ted Chiang : “There’s no way to write fiction and guarantee your readers will understand it correctly. There is no way you will ever be able to write something so straightforward that Elon Musk will understand it the way that you intend it.”

DoorDash Will Photograph Your Menu Free, Claim a 44% Sales Lift, and Bar the Pictures From Uber Eats

DoorDash's help center lays the deal out in plain language: a professional photographer comes to your restaurant for a 1.5-hour session, shoots up to 20 menu items plus one header image, and DoorDash pays the photographer.

Why You Don't Need Focus Stacking for Every Landscape

Focus stacking has become close to a default step in landscape work, with plenty of people blending 20 or even 50 frames so every rock and grass blade is sharp from front to back. Whether that effort shows up in the final image, or whether a single frame focused at the hyperfocal distance would look the same, decides how much of your time goes into focus while the light keeps changing.

The Case for Photographing the Place You Already Know

The places you see every week are the ones you're least likely to photograph, since they feel too familiar to bother with. Familiar doesn't last, and the village fair or street corner you skip this year is exactly what someone will want to see decades from now. [ Read More ]

The Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.4 Pro Is Sharp in the Corners Wide Open

The Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.4 Pro sells for $829, and it brings a metal body, weather-sealing, and a clicked aperture ring at that price. Few focal lengths stay on a camera as long as a 35mm does, so how a lens like this behaves wide open, in the corners, and while tracking a moving subject affects a big share of everything you shoot.

Fog in the San Francisco Bay Area can bury a scene in seconds and hand it back a minute later with trees, towers, and light arranged in ways you won't see again.

Film Quote of the Day: Professor X’s Most Moving Lesson on Hope and Finding Your Way

I absolutely adore the X-Men movies . They were sort of the first foray into whether or not people would take these blockbusters seriously, and they absolutely rocked. As the franchise continued into the 2010s, we saw characters across time, with the ultimate team-up movie being X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014). It merged both timelines of the X-Men movies into one. Bryan Singer directed the movie, and Simon Kinberg wrote it, and it functions as both a prequel and a sequel at the same time. The stakes are the entire world, and you get cameos from some of the most memorable and best characters

What Happened to the Mid-Budget War Film?

I am old enough to remember when we got at least one theatrical war movie a year, and maybe even a couple more indies that got a limited release. These were often disguised as action movies or another genre, and usually gave an actor a chance to get their face seen by a lot of people, or a director a chance to show their teeth before demanding a higher budget. Examples include The Hurt Locker (2008), Three Kings (1999), and even Platoon (1986). These films relied on gritty realism and morally complex screenplays to draw in audiences. Sometimes, they made big bucks at the box office and could b
