the other cool thing is you can just plug your phone in and CC can remotely install, run and test the package directly on-device by itself
there were a few stumbles but it's working now!

Made the Token Beam plugin feel a lot more native inside Blender.
Any heavy @blender.org users around who’d be up for giving it a spin and sharing some honest feedback?

fun fact: even the palm trees in horizon drive are based on speedtree trees
I imported the highpoly realistic tree and then manually traced over the frond shapes to make the low poly mesh, and then the shader is just a green leaf gradient and a tan trunk gradient

so recently nova launcher updated and now includes ads right at the top of the app drawer which is, obviously, _disgusting_ at every level
but APKs have no real encryption and our friend CC can make any change you want to 'em
I might end up drunk on this power

@words.bsky.social I saw a dog out while walking and reflexively called it a "words dog"

I have the corollary problem where I'll buy the nicer more expensive version of something, designed to be more robust, but because it's so nice and expensive I use it less / baby it more when the whole point is that it _does_ stand up to more use and abuse than the cheaper version would
Jevons object: Something well-crafted that's so satisfying to use that you use it a lot more than you'd use something not built quite as well, thus causing it to wear out faster.

fun fact, dominos also has an API such that you can order pizza directly from command line
you could save your fav pizza order as a claude skill and it automatically fires if you've been in there for 6+ hours

This might be the first hot take on how technology tells us how to live our lives, destroying our ability to make human decisions.
The technology in question is the sundial.
From a 3rd century BCE Roman adaptation of a Greek play, as discussed in Kerr’s “The Ordered Day”
(It isn't wrong, though)

people are confusing average art (the quality level is median) and average art (novelty found in the middle space between other existing art)
because we can describe basically all human art this way too
name a book, movie or band and we can point at their influences; their venn diagram of priors

This is really stupid.
This person made a very usable web app to make animations with. People loved it…. Until they found out it was vibe coded. 🙄
Anyway, this is impressive. More artists should attempt to vibe code tools for themselves and others.
