As LLMs make it increasingly convenient to get answers without understanding how stuff works. I think P5 is more important than ever. I learned by experimenting and figuring stuff by myself. If you did as well, please consider donating to the P5: processingfoundation.org/support/donate/

The upcoming 4.4.5 release of Processing includes as many new contributors as all the releases since 4.3.1 combined 🥳 We’ve been working hard to lower the barrier to entry, so seeing this many new folks jump in is really encouraging and honestly makes us a bit emotional. Thank you 💙
Screenshot showing a list of new contributors to the Processing 4.4.5 release, each with a link to their first pull request. Usernames listed include @marioguzzzman, @thisizaro, @ovaline, @jd-boyd, @Vaivaswat2244, @JSdCool, @AhmedMagedC, @pnngocdoan, @joshgiesbrecht, @ThexXTURBOXx, @jdebou, @toniab, and @aj-m.

Retro Waves #shader #wccchallenge
This image was made using a shader. It shows a cloudy moon in the sky, behind snowy mountains, reflected in a wavy sea, with three birds flying in the center towards the mountains. The colours go from dark blue to bright red and all the way to the white of the snowy mountains.
