Thank you, 1993 Dennis, for documenting this low-resolution (the background image was 640×480 pixels with 16 colors) simulation so thoroughly. I hope to bring it back to life and upgrade it to 3D soon.

No one’s ready for this: Our basic assumptions about photos capturing reality are about to go up in smoke.

Everyone who is reading this article in 2024 grew up in an era where a photograph was, by default, a representation of the truth. A staged scene with movie effects, a digital photo manipulation, or more recently, a deepfake — these were potential deceptions to take into account, but they were outliers in the realm…

The ‘Liar’s Dividend’ is dangerous for journalists. Here’s how to fight it.

  The Liar’s Dividend suggests that in addition to fueling the flames of falsehoods, the debunking efforts actually legitimize the debate over the veracity. This creates smoke and fans suspicions among at least some in the audience that there might well be something true about the claim. That’s the “dividend” paid to the perpetrator of…
