I have spent the day at war with markdown parsing, print CSS, and browser PDF rendering but I have a basic pipeline working. This post is a message... and part of a system of messages... pay attention to it!

been working with my *incredibly* talented artist friend Voodoo Val who did 52 unique illustrations (!) for all the cards- here's a sneak peek of two
Illustration of the "Mimic Chest" card, showing a mimic chest with eyes peeking out of the opening, and walking on green arms.Illustration of the 5 of Clubs "Fish Wife" card, showing a mermaid with human legs and the upper half of a fish, singing.

spent the better part of a week on optimizing my delaunay/voronoi implementation and all I got was this sick-ass visual so actually completely worth it potch.me/toys/delauna...

encounter prototype for a game project
initial code sketch of a combat encounter screen- player and foes are represented by grid-shaped boards divided into ability regions. the boards contain dice that supply value to the different regions. action options are things like "attack" "defend" "heal".

been playing with a set of scripts for "every vote mapping", in which (surprise), every single vote gets a dot. Ran them for latest LA Mayoral Primary data- It's great for "land doesn't vote" arguments as well as avoiding marking any single area as one "color" (or candidate).

reminds me of the International Energy Agency's solar capacity projections
a chart showing solar deployment additions by year plotted with the IEA projections starting at that date. for every date, the IEA projections are flat or lowering, and the actual curve is near parabolic or exponential, showing the contunued disconnect between the projections and reality
