Relatedly, if you use Figma for work like I do, and Future You wonders how it all got so shitty? This IPO will be the reason why.

Nothing ruins product direction faster than "growth hacking".

Markets do not build. Markets extract.

stock price for Figma on first day of trading.

Apparently, there are still a large number of people who did not get the memo that trading on IPO day is also "trading on stale good news".

"Star Trek" is a Utopia because they never invented social media.

oh god no

Of course there's the "count the fingers and toes" comparison, the "confident liars" comparison, and so on. Magical jin granting corrupted wishes.

"Don't mess with the Fae", shows up in many cultures.

"The Fae as an analogy for AI agents. Seem helpful at first, but the bargain grows out of control"

...todays plot thought.

Can we export models to fbx or the like?

This is a really good set of concepts for any UI design project, not just games. Nicely done.

This is a lovely little video on some basic UI design concepts. It's composed for games, but applies to screen interfaces in general.

Listening to my partner explain how "Neuschwanstein" castle was like a raging FFVII fan had named their fantasy castle 'Cloud Strife' after the lead character.

Wagner wasn't necessarily a fan of his "Swan Knight" having their own fan-castle.

he had friend with him.

yellow rotary phone. almost identical to the one we had growing up.

the old ways where better.

this was a fun ride.

new module just dropped.

the little frog buddy in the blackberries startled me.

"Do you even loaf, bro?"

We are going to see complete and utter ruin unless this despot can be removed.

I kind of want an autoblock rule that can look at follow count ratios and nuke the accounts with tens of thousands of followers and a hundred reposts. this seems easy.

you're not a real person, and if you are a real person? we certainly don't need to connect. ever.

I seem to be attracting a very large number of bot followers who "love life and photography" lately.

which is irksome because there are also photographers on here who love life that I _am_ interested in following back.

they just happen to be human.

Oh for sure. I am fully owned by my possessions at this point.

Anyway, as a fellow self-taught overachiever... *tips-hat*

that's where i've arrived after years of hardware and other physical projects. pretty thrilled that the latest obsession is entirely encompassed by the digital domain, tbh.

Sad I never made it to the Smithsonian before it stopped being a museum 😢

Aah they grow up so fast.. 🥹

This represents almost 5 years of me improving my skills in #Blender3d in the form of Orc characters!

I finish projects, but I have a shipping container that is mostly sedimentary layers of past projects and hobbies from front to back.

too many things to learn in this modern world.

do you find it difficult to stick with things because there's always a new thing to figure out once the shape of the current thing has mostly resolved itself?

just woke up from a "rushing to pack to catch a plane and my bag is full of precious and fragile mementos falling out and i have to leave them behind" dream.

Was talking about using baguettes as weapons over dinner and then my partner went and asked, "what happens if it gets wet?"

So. Yeah.

Understanding this is key to understanding a lot of things about the tech industry and its many, many problems.

killing millions of people is fine and acceptable if you can do it with a trolley lever that makes your shareholders insanely wealthy.
