Shakespeare sisters… not like this…
Egalitarianism was a mistake.
>>24968982Every illusion I might have held about the intelligence of techbros was dispelled by that quote, luckily.
/lit/niggas jerk off the classics because of their reputation, not their quality. Half of them haven't even read shakespeare.
Ok but seriously why in the last 400 years has nobody matched Shakespeare
>>24969081Milton did, even surpassed him. At least in one specific subgenre, Shakespeare's range also covers comedy
>>24969081Even among the really great writers, few have as wide of a range as The Bard.
>>24969081Maybe Sam Altman could use his tech knowledge to do some real research and give us an answer instead of hand-waving with "erm, that's unlikely" without engaging with the actual text whatsoever
>>24969092Milton’s imagery never approached Shakespeare, and he doesn’t show the same experimental mastery of verse as late Shakespeare
>>24968982Why does he make modern Brits seethe so much?>ummm he didn’t write it>ummm he was gay>ummm he was problematic and we have much more inclusive and brown writers todayWhy… can’t they just be proud to have been the nation that created such a great writer?
>>24968982>Gauss effect fallacy>woefully subjective criterion without likely prior establishmentYou were saved Shakespeare sista but only because the opinionable basis is trash to begin with.
>>24969110We still worship Shakespeare.>>ummm he was problematic and we have much more inclusive and brown writers todayThis doesn’t happen, except with the Merchant of Venice >>ummm he was gaySo little is known about him that people amplify even the slightest thing that could be seen as remotely biographical in his work>>ummm he didn’t write itFollowing on from that, lots of people can’t comprehend that a writer can write about things they haven’t personally experienced.
>>24969110the consequences of self-flagellating post 2016 and subwit teachers
>>24969100The Sam who said it was Bankman-Fried.
>>24968982That's because he wasnt one man but a group of people
>>24969201Nope
>>24968982Instead of all that democratic gobbledygook he could just list one person he thinks is better.

>>24968982There are over a billion people in India and 3.3 million people in Uruguay. Indians are passionate about football and really care about Messi and Ronaldo.So, from a Bayesian point of view we can guess that Indian would demolish Uruguay if their NTs played football with each other.
>>24969213I looked up that person.Perhaps it is the case that the maximum quality of a work of literature is inversely proportional to the number of people who could have possibly written it at the time of its creation.
What a fucking retarded point. >Why is the fork the best eating implement, when since the fork's creation we've made so much useless tat since then. Numerically speaking, it's more likely to be the basedbean juice opener than the fork
>>24968982Obviously the culture Shakespeare lived in was far superior for producing high culture. This soulless bugman can only think in statistics.
>>24968982yes, homer was statistical even worse
>>24969241I don’t think so, Shakespeare was just a unique genius. Your cultural determinism thinking is sort of related to his statistics point.
