Reposting to wrap up the year. Humbled to see these materials being used by many more people than I ever expected. Truly grateful for all the support and collaborations through this work. Thanks!

finally published this visual article on dithering (part 1)!

I had so much fun and learned a lot while making this. not only about dithering, but also about @threejs.org shaders.

as usual, animated with @animejs.com

enjoy!

looking forward to the “slow code” movement: typing artisanal code one letter at a time, reading poorly maintained documentation, fixing bugs on your own.

Link rot as a forgetting function for humanity's digital memory. What's important will stick around (by being searched for repeatedly and replicated if necessary), while the rest just disappears.

I'm amazed by this new breed of #datavis "explainer" blog posts that don't contain _a single example_ of the chart in question.

An interesting shift in perspective: LLMs not as replacements for individual workers, but as replacements for the output of a whole industry (from maxread.substack.com/p/will-ai-wr...)

OK, so I just got really obsessed with a very arcane question. There are 'land' and 'water' hemispheres that maximize the amount of each (below). But can you divide the earth into two hemispheres that are each 29% land, 71% water, just like the earth as a whole? The LLMs said no… but I persisted.
