Got put onto a Comp Sci Introductory course from UC Berkeley by a coworker and fellow technical artist. Been a boost for my confidence how much I am familiar with from my personal work and college tech art club. The lectures add more context to each concept and their history.

Jesus Christ it's so hard not to engage with NSFW art on my professional main. Damn corpo prudes. Why's it gotta be so shameful in our culture. The human form and sexuality are beautiful when represented ethically. (ᵕ,—ᴗ—,) Time to purge.

I love libraries. They had these for 5$ in a sale. Sad they are selling tho. I cant't wait to record myself in Blender yapping about minutia with good lighting at night. Easy too.

this is making me realize that nobody except maybe weird tryhard wikipedia editors actually check cited sources. this realization would have made school a lot easier for me even tho chatgpt didnt exist back then
Do people realize that this is also happening with case law?

the entire debate cis people have about trans people is moronic to start but it’s also a debate most trans people don’t care about, being that if we are viewed as “real women or men” or not. no one gives a fuck. it changes nothing about the reality that transitioning rocks

placeholders should be so bad you can't miss them or so adequate it wouldn't matter if they shipped. terrible or legally unusable assets which blend in are liability and sign of negligence
also these placeholders rule

you should make placeholder graphics look incredibly shitty!! making a game is a long and complicated process and if you use ai to make placeholders that look finished at a glance you'll probably forget some of it, and then people will scour your whole game and you'll look like a fraud.

A lot of people have asked me how I created this Gastly using graphs, so here’s the link if you want to review it 🔗 www.desmos.com/calculator/3...
In the Godot Shaders Bible I explain how to transform all these functions into GDSL code ✨ jettelly.com/store/the-go...

Dirty gamedev secret: sometimes instead of building proper debug visualizations I just dump the information to OBJ and use Blender to visualize it 😅
But now at least I know my SDF dual contouring is working

I played through the first Time Crisis via MAME with a mouse and it was fun and in some cases ABSOLUTE CINEMA.

most people want, above all else, power over their own lives. the ability to live a life where they can choose their occupation, choose whether or not to have kids, whether to live in a city vs the country, etc. rich people have achieved that. and now they want that power over OTHER people's lives
most people, if they could have anything in the world they wanted, would ask for a roughly middle class level of stability and comfort, and then for other people to be also stable and comfortable. the rich want an inhuman amount of wealth beyond that and they WILL hurt others to achieve it

Kinda funny that Steam is threatening to revolutionise the console market by uh...
*checks notes*
Being honest that their machine is basically just a shit PC rather than pretening it's not?
(Also obviously a console that accesses a steam library is pretty solid as a pitch)
