Work: Can you still manage to do x, y and z before you knock off today?
Me: That depends on how many questions you're gonna ask me before I knock off today?

Say what you want about the royals, they don't tolerate Epsteinery. This is how this should work. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

I saw this photo recently and was mesmerized by it. I couldn't place him at first. I thought he was one of The Who or something.

I binged through The Chair Company and it's so much fun. This is the liminal space between corporate office carpet and the small print on a website. It's pure Kafka. Tim Robbinson is a genius.

Here's another experiment with the illusion of motion. It's kinda like hacking your brain, which is already using hacks like edge contrast and motion blur to make sense of the physical universe. @sidefx.bsky.social #houdini

Amazon announces 14,000 job cuts in continued AI push

The job cuts are reportedly the first wave that could affect as many as 30,000 corporate jobs, which the Jeff Bezos-owned company boiled down to ‘staying nimble’

Same with music. People can use AI to spit out some slop resembling a decent song but do they understand it? Could they change parts at will? Can my clients tell the difference. Probably a big no.

My music taste went in a variety of different directions in the 80s. This was one of them. Missed that 🍌 the first time around. 🤦‍♂️ #spooky #80smusic #DeadOrAlive www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZKN...

Antagonist or role model? I could never quite tell. 💔

I’m not trying to avoid you. I’m only here to drop my kid off at school and haven’t had the required dosage of caffeine yet.

In PS you turn a stack of photos into a smart object. Then you choose how it comps them all together. ‘Mean’ calculates the average value of each pixel so stationary objects look the same but moving objects get smeared out. Median is another mode you can use to remove moving cars/pedestrians.

Float / Fall - an optical illusion I made inspired by the mind bending illusions of graphic artist Jagarikin (on X). Nothing is really moving. @sidefx.bsky.social #houdini #illusion

My 5yr old was in bed and came up with a really cool song hook. After 3 lines she stopped. I offered a 4th line that rhymed perfectly. She turned around, looked at me and said, “No.”

I think she’s ready to face the music industry now.

My wife was describing a sea scene where there was more than one octopus and she was searching for the plural term. I offered up "Octopussies?" and we agreed that's the term we'll use from now on.

I did a "long exposure" with my iPhone by taking 30 photographs resting on a rock and calculating the 'mean' (average) image in Photoshop. It's pretty cool as the alternative is an SLR, tripod and an 8x ND filter to stop down the daylight.

Walking in London
#photography

A solitary pedestrian walks along a sidewalk in front of an old brick wall and industrial-era buildings with bricked-up windows. Behind the buildings, numerous tall white construction cranes loom in the background against a pale sky, suggesting rapid urban development in contrast to the stillness of the foreground.

Apple, please give us "delete and report spam" option on the lock screen. Why I clear a text and then go to messages later and see it still unread?

I've gotta swipe each "BREAKING NEWS: RACHEL MADDOW DROPS A BOMB ON TRUMP!!!" text twice.

Took my 40 yrs of recording to realize that warm or 'vintage' records don't have no high frequency information. They just have less emphasis on them. It's a gentle roll off but it's still there. Arguably older recordings have more air than new ones.
