   Fun that they had an octopus playing a piano. I made the same thing the old fashioned way. Mine can actually play though. https://twitter.com/LeapJosh/status/1423052486760411136 :P

   According to their graph it looks like there's more peaking in the winter.

   Neat tech coming out of the UE world. I made something similar for the weird Lovecraftian text editor I'm making. My goal's to eventually let people fill a wasteland with flora by doing creative writing around it. Mine's more

   Code that serves as a highway I try to make as clean as possible. Code that serves as a cul-de-sac just has to work.

   The consolation is that, if I remember correctly, docx is just a zip file containing xml. I made an xlsx exporter in actionscript3 (lol) years ago and it worked like this. What I ultimately did was made a "template" document, and

   This is very cool . I wish I could use it in unity! Going to take a few minutes to scope out what a port would take...

   Signed distance fields _are not that bad_ (thank you Inigo Quilez) Once you have your primitives, it becomes basic math and union, subtraction, intersection for the most part. I made this shader a few days after learning the basics -> h

   I made the text editor I used to write the first draft. Just a weird piece of trivia.

    It's a shame filter: custom() died. It would be easier to skip shader-like and just go right to shader.

    Answering "why use maya instead of blender?" is more challenging to answer than it used to be. Replace maya with zbrush / houdini and it's easier to answer but gets harder every update. I say this with a decade of unity

    A realsense camera, 2 hours worth of dev and OBS virtual cam and I could make a scattery POC of this :p

    I've been working on a 3d first person creative writing RPG where you're a Tentacle Monster with a magic mechanical typewriter. You learn ritual magic based on what you write and it can export .txt files. It even has printer &quot

    Thank you. I'm deliberately going to be readonly (and most likely only filenames unless the user requests contents) When I'm walking around the filesystem. Thank you for the info.

    I've been wondering about this -- I'm making a text editor RPG, and in the medium term I want to make a file picker that builds a procedural dungeon based on your file system. I know such a thing would have been trivially fine in

    That sentence stuck out to me too. It makes me wonder if the nature of America's representative democracy lowers the threshold by which our elected officials actually have to do a good job / serve the will of the people. They cons

    My pleasure. I hope it earns a place in your collection when I'm ready to release. (Trying my best for a demo this month.) I think one of the coolest features is that you learn different spells depending on what you write. For example,

    If I may, I'd like to mention a text editor that I am making as an example of relevant skeuomorphism. It's called Tentacle Typer. It makes regular ol' .txt files in mostly the traditional way, but you write text documents as

    This is cool. I could see myself adding support for this in Tentacle Typer. It's a text editor with a similar just-save-plain-text philosophy, main difference is that it has more tentacles. Giving a tentacle a paint brush for mid text

    35 pounds of butter will provide enough calories for you to walk to space. Butter based diets make a basket life for even a family of 14 trivial. Think about it. https://what-if.xkcd.com/126/

    This is a challenge but I'm trying. I have a long and sordid history of overworking on things that did not give back anywhere near what I put in. I'm testing the thesis that it was because of power dynamics and ownership. I'm

    This is a very platform specific question. https://web.dev/gpu-compute/ This gets into it for web development. I've never used this though. https://web-dev.imgix.net/image/vvhSqZboQoZZN9wBvoXq

    They've all kind of blurred together. Anything that was effectively just map/filter/reduce operations but were too slow. I've done it on a C#.net ERP frontend, a local search function in a wargaming app, a real time web
