Rude, but correct.

That’s just because they bundle it all into one file and minify it. In reality it’s 7 billion files each exporting one 3 line function

I’m a web developer and I definitely don’t do this anymore. With http/2 there isn’t really a great reason to do this.

Kubrick did actually film a fake version of the moon landing, but he was such a perfectionist that he made them film it on location … thus making the fake moon landing real

In all seriousness, who was this really? Wasn't she some computer science pioneer or something?

I’m a little offended at referring to her as the director’s assistant, given what she actually did. It could have been just as good a shitpost if she had been referred to as his screenwriter and not diminished how instrumental she was.

False, that’s Daniel Radcliffe in one of his quirky post HP roles

Ah right, thanks!

She was a lead computer engineer at NASA and kinda invented the field of software engineering.

This is Chloe Sevigny reviewing the blow job scene in Brown Bunny.

See, it was a hoax. There’s the script for the fake landing footage

We finally have proof
saltesc@lemmy.world 2 months ago
The proof was always the fumbled with “bringing back” rocks and not mizithra.

I didn’t know Capricorn-1 was a Kubrick movie, TIL.

All that work and Neil Armstrong STILL fluffed his lines!

You can tell they didn’t have the money to do it for real
They’re propping the door open with a coat rack

That’s the first draft script of 2001, as written by an old-fashioned AI ‘expert system.’
Kubrik decided it was more cost-effective to just have HAL sing ‘Daisy, Daisy.’

If Kubrick had filmed a fake moon landing the conspiracy wouldn’t exist. The nimrods that believe that shit couldn’t begin to fathom how much of an insane perfectionist he was, he’d have created his own moon
AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 months ago
He’d have faked it, buthed have insisted on filming on location to fake it

Exactly, Stanley did a lot of things, good and bad. But he wasn’t gonna half ass it that’s for fucking sure
SpecialSetOfSieves@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I like your way of thinking here. I’m honestly not sure if the actual geologists working on lunar soil simulants today are more hardcore than Kubrick was back then.
With all the cuts to NASA and the American scientific enterprise generally, we could use this kind of angel perfectionist director these days. I wonder if Denis Villeneuve could be convinced to forget about Arrakis for a while and work closer to home…

Real talk: I heard somewhere that this is Jack Black’s Mom.
SwingingTheLamp@piefed.zip 2 months ago
Easy to confuse, but Judith Love Cohen was an electrical engineer who worked on the Apollo program, as well. She’s credited with work that saved the Apollo 13 astronauts. She later became Jack Black’s mom.

The connections she made on set are how Jack Black got his start Hollywood

I wonder why that script could fill almost a dozen books. Must have been really long and complicated!

I heard there’s a lost director’s cut where Armstrong meets an alien

Is the alien made of rock?

That is not correct… that picture is ALL OF HER OWN ACCOMPLISHMENTS, not a movie script…

You’re in a shitposting community, most of us know who this is, all of us are aware that it’s nonsense.

It’s only one of her accomplishments. She has more.

Yes, she just turned 90. Amazing career even after the Apollo program

She’s also in a Lego set!
