So I overslept because I had a big idea in my head involving my Markov Text Generator: if I can store the first gram of each string in a story into a separate MTG, I can not only replicate replicate word patterns at the word level, but I can also do so at the paragraph level.

Do i need to explain what a Markov chain is...?

Well, not to me obviously - and anyone else who is puzzled can always google :D

And yet, our culture makes fun of or distrusts those who have knowledge or intelligence - idiocracy is a documentary...

What examples come to mind

Governments (such as the UK and US) disbanding their scientific advisor panels because they keep telling politicians things they don't want to be true, Reactions to global warming, that sort of thing.

That's true sadly... but likely to change

Still waiting for you to try and rhyme asphalt :)

Seriously though, what has gotten you so down ? Finals not going well?

Being done with finals hasn't given me the free time to draw, but that's not the problem.

My chronic lack of feedback made me consider an ultimatum: keep sharing what I have for feedback or never share anything again. Then I got reminded of the other talents I had to abandon because I felt they had no value to them.

You *did* get feedback - you got appreciation, which is more than many artists get - but what you didn't get was any constructive feedback (hence, my rather extended comment on your status)

I find more comfort in posting-and-running rather than staying to see what others say; I'm guess I'm scared to know the outcome of what I share, whether it be praised or left in the dust.

Perhaps it's better to revert back to how I did things between 2016 and last year: no art threads, no asking for feedback/critique, just sharing what I have when I can to a select few.

Its not like you are the only artist nervous about the reception of their art :)

And this isn't the first time I felt like I had a useless talent.

Would it have been better to have instead go for masters level computer science instead of balancing CS and game dev? I don't like abandoning something that I'm not only good at but feel like I can connect to (mentally or emotionally or both).

Meh; Artists don't "want" to do art, they NEED to do art - its an expression of their soul, and leaves their soul a bit stunted if they are denied it.

But correspondingly, exposing an expression of the soul leaves you feeling vulnerable and nervous, so this too is normal.

Any fool can do computers (and many do)

Perhaps this is why I'm so reluctant to share anything, only doing so if it's absolutely necessary. And why I'm so scared to try anything new, because if I'm good at it, I'll never get used to the feedback.
