A very cool & clever personal blog post (hypnotic page design concept & experience) I found today. Poetic and with many insights that made me reflect on the current state of working with AI. I was hypnotized by the parallel scrolling effect on my phone of this river 🤩 🔗 www.krispuckett.com/flow

Draw with me? When I started writing shaders, I thought I needed to learn complex math first. Turns out, you don’t! As you create shaders and explore colors and shapes, the math starts to make sense on its own. 🧵 1/3 #shaders #glsl #webgl

Wanna learn with me? Drawing basic shaders, like just a gradient, helped me build a solid foundation. In my course, I break down shader fundamentals the way I wish someone had done for me—with accessible mental models and real life analogies. 🧵 1/3 #shaders #glsl #webgl

As you can see, everyone is extremely excited about this and it was definitely worth Chrome forcing through the prompt API that no other browser wants. Once this bubble bursts, we need to have a serious conversation (and litigation) about Google and their influence on the web.

Looking for Browser recommendations that are not downloading an LLM like Chrome. Unfortunately, never been as comfy with Firefox nor Safari UI. I don’t like the dev console there. I like Brave, but is a Chromium-based browser, so 😒

Hamburg friends, if you want to collect any of my high-quality giclée prints, we can arrange a local pickup to skip the delivery. Simply select it at the checkout 🙂 Worldwide friends, I’m delivering domestically & internationally ✈️ This is the poster size available in all 4 collections, 50x75 cm.

As a final homework assignment for myself to digest the course, I spent about a week recreating the example images in the banner of @ilithya.bsky.social 's #GLSL #PixelShader course. Et voilà! I even asked her for help on the final one & she guided me thru to victory. That was fun! Thanks Ilithya 🙏🏻
