working on saying no to new projects, i have a tendency to fill up all the time i have available with startups or creative ideas.

thinking about taking dancing lessons instead, maybe afrobeats.

market this on the design aspect instead of the technical aspect! can imagine a lot of design studios would use design like this, it's clean, quirky and stands out.

but they don't do very much

no no no, different elements have different behaviours. for example, a button automatically has accessibility features like being able to tab to it and select with Enter key, which is essential for a screenreader. do that with a div and you end up building the functionality from scratch.

if all you care about is the visuals, sure, there's little difference, but once you scratch the surface you will have a poor product by not using the correct elements (where there is a clear "correct" ofc, sometimes it's subjective).

Alan Turing took his own life on purpose or by accident, he wasn't murdered

and what do you think of him?

conflicted - people who have admired Elon in the past, how are you feeling about him now?

I am the author of this blog post. thanks for reading and mentioning me, but I also believe it is not the right post.

I made this helper function to navigate my projects, recursively, it will list them if there are more than one, but defaults to the first one unless you give it a number.

syntax:

  projects <project-name> <match index>

  function projects() {
    if [ -z "$1" ]; then
      echo "please provide a project name"
      return
    fi

    local allMatches=$(find ~/Documents/projects -maxdepth 2 -type d -name "*$1*" -print)
    local firstMatch=$(echo "$allMatches" | head -n ${2:-1} | tail -n 1)

    if [ -z "$firstMatch" ]; then
      echo "no matches found"
      return
    else
      if [ $(echo "$allMatches" | wc -l) -gt 1 ]; then
        echo "matches found:"
        echo "$allMatches" | awk '{print NR ") " $0}'
      fi
      cd "$firstMatch"
    fi
  }

you may still have adhd. eating well, having good habits and receiving accountability from your environment are all factors that manage the negative effects of the disorder.

also would be interesting to know your time frame for how long you've done this - to rule out the honey-moon phase

I wonder why nerds are obsessed with Game of Life. I know I am one of them, but I still don't quite get why it hits the spot so well

go right ahead! i can make a repo for it if you have any trouble copying.

PLEASE, for the love of god, send it to me later. I am extremely interested (not just saying that). tomomyrman@proton.me or reply here

or, let's collab!

It was shown how easy it is to create a XOR texture, which makes the XOR texture useful to test if a texture renderer is working.

However, it's not suitable for applications such as art or games.

uhhh why not suitable for art? I'm digging into it right now and made some trippy stuff!

metatags are html, yes

I sent you 20eur. It's not much but what I can spare right now

not really for analysis but I built a tool that auto-generates some SEO metatags and it has a really thorough checklist to go through, along with linking to useful tools. check it out:

while your idea has value, I think the point being made is that this is an issue with views on human rights and liberty, not technology.

any sense in porting a v4 project to 5?

so do you look at the users data?

Skip the job applications entirely (really, put 0% effort there) and go to tech networking events. Especially if you have some social skills. Worked for me at least.

I always thought that I should put as many people in the photo as possible in group settings, because more lively energy = better right? but my brother is a trained photographer and he encouraged me to focus on one or two people at most, to create a more interesting photo. it becomes a character study instead of a bunch of people where you don't know where to look.

on big festivities like new years i always leave one light on because burglars probably expect a lot of people to leave their house.

what was the rubric they missed?

were you born this rude or was it a conscious choice?

in my experience, your submission does not have to be a carbon copy of what you end up making. you can check the boxes to make them trust your artistic ability - then you can make it yours, within reason. the money controls the art outcome, until you're banksy. a lot of great artists are able to stylistically and thematically change their art on a whim, by studying the materials/style and putting conscious effort in. this is not rare. modern art does not require mastery by any means and some of the more successful artists actively avoid perfectionism.

i have a friend who is great at this, so i picked her brain a bit. she does this method and i see her booking show after show without a social media presence. she does 90% studying the brief, 8 percent presenting her submission in a structured way (think: explain the idea, what lead up to it, how it will benefit the show, who she is, and even visualises how it will look by photoshopping her art into their space) and 2% submitting beautiful work.

I'm in the art scene, and when it comes to submitting proposals for exhibitions and being in art/film festivals and such, competing against other people being picked is surprisingly easy when you realise that most people don't study the brief that tells you exactly what the organisations is looking for. make sure you nail everything in the brief and you're in the lead, even if your art is terrible. I feel this is similar in nature, but taken to its extreme.

I just watched videos of vigilantes fixing potholes and creating flyers for local businesses that look better (for free). any other similar stories of people taking matters into their own hands?
