Linked In post from Mike Matsel, Principle Development Lead, XBox Graphics: "The XBox Graphics team is hiring folks with experience with device drivers, GPU performance, or related validation or engineering system experience. If the positions are closed and you want to apply, please message me!" And below it is an "AI" slop that reads in white on green "XBOX GRAPHICS IS HIRING" and an image of a woman in a green sweater wearing earpods typing on a computer, except the "AI" has put the screen on the back of the monitor.

The fucking head of fucking XBox Graphics used a fucking "AI" slop image to hire new engineers but couldn't tell that the fucking screen on the fucking monitor is facing backwards.

Been a bit busy with work but I still draw the random portrait from time to time

That's not a flaw, that's map of what to improve next. Just keep at it!

Everything you make looks like it was made by you. To us, that's awesome! to you it makes all your past work become worse, and the new one become nothing new. But its a skewed view of what you make. When we see your work, we see what you can do. When you see your work, you see what you can't make.

Awesome 1 and awesome 2
Delightful work!

whiteboard sketches describing quick modeling tricks

whiteboard sketches visually describing subdivision modeling

whiteboard sketches depicting basic polygon modeling operations

one thing I miss from teaching 3d modeling is the little diagrams I used to make explaining basic concepts. Loads of students would walk up to the board to take pictures even after I said I'd provide a PDF file with the same stuff.
#3d

I think I do. I dislike how in blender I can't select vertices on the other side unless I'm in xray mode. I know what I'm doing! Its my model. LET ME!

I feel like one of my main skills in 3D modeling is being good at selecting stuff. Like a specific set of vertices or a certain pattern of edges
