As someone who develops the web with a strong focus on privacy and security I call on @mark-carney.bsky.social to OPPOSE bill C-2 with its invasive surveillance measures, unchecked data collection, and vague enforcement powers that threaten the digital rights of Canadians. #NotWhatWeVotedFor #Canada

Do you make these at real-world scale?

I will have t take a look. Maya has had an indie license for a few years now that makes it very affordable, but not free. Thanks for the advice!

How is Blender these days? I remember many years ago I stopped using it because it crashed on me constantly.

It's very nice. Good job! I love modelling but I used to use Maya.

Nice work. Blender?

Don't Guess My Language If you’re still using IP geolocation to decide what language to show, stop screwing around. It’s a broken assumption dressed up as a feature.

New post on blog.

IP tells you where the request comes from, that’s it. It doesn’t tell you what language the user speaks. It looks like Google thinks otherwise, and many programmers are blindly repeating it for Google with no idea how do it properly.

What do you think? I'd appreciate your feedback. 😊

You do quality work 👍🏻

A screenshot of a YouTube home page showing videos with titles and metadata on top of their thumbnails. Some thumbnails contain text or busy patterns and when a video's title overlaps this text or pattern it is difficult to read it.

YouTube is giving a masterclass on bad UI design. Their new Android update overlays a video's title and metadata on the video's thumbnail, making things look messy and also very difficult to read—especially for those with vision impairment.

Come on, YouTube!

What about a full viewport-size "Unsubscribe" button at the top followed by the newsletter content below it. That's kind of what I wish I got in most of the junk email I get 😂

Agreed. I don't have a newsletter (yet) but thanks for the insight in case I ever decide to add one.
