Amazing write up from @charlotte.fyi. I guess it turns out the hard line between the past and future might be tight coupling with specifically ARGB 8bit textures.

note: this work is still *super* early and experimental, but i'm excited about our progress goals of bringing processing closer to the broader open source ecosystem. gltfs in processing? it may be closer than you think!

it's so telling that Cuomo is resorting to gutter racism in the final days of this race, but let's please not make the same mistake as with Trump & assume this is disqualifying.

The trailblazing transgender rights activist Miss Major has passed away at the age of 78.
Miss Major was a lifelong organizer and participant in the ballroom scene. She took part in the 1969 Stonewall Riots and was injured by the police — but she kept fighting.

The thing about AI PRs and code reviews I struggle with is this:
If you're coming up and getting it done with AI, or reviewing it with AI....then I can do it myself? Like why does anyone need your contribution?

Just realizing that during my talk at NYU, someone asked me which creative coding artists inspire me, and I replied with [paraphrasing] "I'm inspired by my soldering iron, and anarchists who are teaching each other how to do things in a decentralized way"

Hello~ i wrote something for @theverge.com about the surreal horror of online transness in a fascist surveillance state.
it’s time to change tactics and make ourselves less legible to this machinery of death — but *without* sacrificing our connection and community.

The internet once helped trans people connect and organize. Now it’s a dangerous liability. What comes next?

Open source software is entirely about community. The politics of the maintainers do matter, and should guide your decision making. If someone's politics is transphobic for example, then I have zero interest in supporting a loser.

This week, the Global Sumud Flotilla tried to deliver life-saving aid to Gaza.
Instead, 461 people—including New Yorkers—have been detained by the Israeli military.
They must be freed at once. And the deliberate starvation of Palestinians must end now.
