I should've just pasted these images with the words "fixed" but I can never leave things unexplained haha

My PR description is so horrible too, because I'm trying to explain what normalize() is doing to a float4, which is basically reverse-normalizing the values so the square root of the sum of their squares equal 1, when we just want the sums to equal one, and I'm bad at this sort of thing explicitly

I forgot to actually commit the actual code though I'm dumb LMAO

It's kinda absurd that I can just write anything in commit fields and nobody yells at me.

No, a Bob Fosse shirt is too far LOL

This guy has done a few routines saying he's straight or something but he's wearing a Bob Fosse shirt, I call bullshit lol

Thankfully I have a few tricks up my sleeve for using the rest of the leg in a way where it being overcooked will be less problematic, but I was so sad when I cut it open 😩

I hate my meat thermometer, it's like "it's 100 degrees" and then five minutes later it's like "haha 140 bitch" I'm throwing it in the garbage immediately and replacing it with a leave-in probe.

I'm throwing the meat thermometer in the trash 😩

I'm throwing the meat thermometer in the trash 😩

I'm wife material tbh

I actually love this, it perfectly shows the solution, but it's not working because the multiplier probably needs to be cranked up more. I should expose that as a global.

Video topic handed to me on a silver platter, fucking love it.

update lmao

My entire life in game dev has been taken over by trees and foliage.

It's really funny though that the work I've been doing to get this slow-developing Shoddycast show off the ground (delayed due to work pressure, sorry!) and in-house YouTube work gave me marketable skills in a new niche lol.

It is more involved than this, our Art Director called me our unofficial Tech Artist, which actually fits my skillsets well. I threw together a proxy mesh in 30 minutes today to implement.

I actually actively develop on our game right now, but it's the most inglamourous stuff ever. Like it's just me putting pull requests in like "shrunk colliders on trees" and I spend my time running into trees in the game to see if they make me want to kill myself.

i think sometimes cis people truly have a hard time understanding that jk rowling is a living person actively using her wealth to fund the international assault on trans lives. she’s not some Complicated Author we can have a spirited debate about separating from the art with!!!!!

Poured some coke in a glass in the morning for some immediate sugar in my life and had to take my kid to the bus, so now I'm out here like

When the chips fall, they're all weak pussies at heart.

My LODs and imposters are probably my favorite little hack, but you don't need to do this if you can accept long render times and a chuggy machine.

This one is a bit of a flex on my part, I'm culling based on a simple angle calculation based on camera position mostly so my gpu doesn't melt when I'm not rendering, and there's a three-tier LOD system based on raw camera distance which is probably overkill. But AE genuinely could never.

Begging my fellow video folk who've been using After Effects for decades to learn Blender, especially if your main thing is visualizing difficult concepts. This is a scene with 200,000 dynamically generating objects in it, with well over 10,000 on screen at a time (closer to 20k). AE could never.

This is a silly use case, the actual magic is being able to use 3D geometry as a paintbrush to make our level design waaaaaaaay cooler and less laborious to put together.

This week, out of desperation for better design tools, I spent a ton of time retooling our voxel brush system so it was no longer just a player tool, but a proper design tool, including full SDF brush support, and I had an intrusive thought that turned out surprisingly well lmao

Gonna pass on that method personally

I tried.

This is the most trans thing about me by the way

I finally learned how to use compressors, busses, and sidechains, so I celebrated by mixing a 94 track mix of Megalovania to stress test my abilities. Need more practice, but I never coulda done this a month ago.
