Ever wonder what snow in the swamp would look like? This is 5 miles into the Louisiana swamps in the Atchafalaya basin... it's unreal... having lived down there for the first 28 years of my life, we never saw anything like this. Smashed records. Curtesy of Garrett Roberts.

This is nuts. A web-based IDE for 8-bit games development, with integrated C compiler, emulator, and *source level debugger*. It all just works. 8bitworkshop.com/v3.12.0/?pla... #retro #gamedev

Actual pro tip: the best way to break into any creative profession is by helping to support and advance other creators. Your peers are not your adversaries. They are your support group.

With a possible teachers strike, and the fact that ill be laid off for a few months - I thought i'd use the time to schedule some streaming to help teach what i've learned over the years. If you struggle to get what you want with rigged anim in toonboom, mark off your calendars!

once again thinking about this passage from David Lynch's book Catching the Big Fish

I feel like you haven’t learned a new language until it changes how you think about every other language you know. I just had a moment of that in Zig while dealing with its specific number conversions. I’m seriously wondering if all my life I’ve been dealing with float / int conversions wrong in C.

Not seeing anyone talking about it on here, but Titmouse's PANTHEON finally hit Netflix today! It's a one of a kind series, got completely buried on AMC+ and now the first season is on Netflix! If you're a fan of hard/speculative sci-fi and you haven't watched it you have to check it out! I adore it

Alright, I hit the thing in zig with @cImport. Someone convince me to not write a full SDL wrapper.

Hey so, I always feel weird about posting my own products but we’re doing a Black Friday sale for my Maya Parallel Rigging course. If you are having trouble optimizing for parallel, here’s a coupon! ondemand.riggingdojo.com/offers/mB3Qi...

It’s been a weird few weeks. I finally buckled down for a “real” project in Zig and it’s been a fun adventure. After my Dark Times with C# over the past year, Zig is a welcome change.

Woke up with the intro “cinematic” song from Sonic 2 on Game Gear in my head. Don’t look at me like you have no idea. You were mad when there was no two-player mode on Game Gear, too.

I’m not sure what’s more disturbing: that I spent most of my weekend sick on the couch leveling up in Zig, or that I had an idea for a Matrix sequel that I like enough to try to write a script.

My fun Saturday: a 5km walk, followed by learning nanobind to possibly speed up some Maya scene introspection. A handful of hours later I have an importable binary that can call MGlobal. This new idea just might work.

@duncanrudd.bsky.social Hey Brad is singing your praises from BCon. You should cross-post your awesome work here too. 🤩

If you’re a blender animator you need to watch this.

@ppammes.bsky.social Yooooooo dude

My wife didn’t believe me about Pom Poko. I will now spend the next two weeks apologizing for introducing her to Pom Poko.

@axl99.bsky.social hey hey I’m over here too. Still need an icon. 🤣
