in an era when carnivore diet influencers are in charge of the american nuclear arsenal we have to admit the "annoying vegan" stereotype barely ever actually existed and the "all meat diet guy" is real, increasingly omnipresent, and way more annoying and inconvenient to actually be around

new ancientjames project just dropped and does not disappoint. stellar execution
"Animated Bokeh" has been on my whiteboard for a long time, and this is the result.

I thought it would just be for cheesy novelty effects, but it also does lightfield manipulation that was cooler than I expected.

inspired by CLAUDE.md, I’ve started putting markdown files named after coworkers into work code repos so I can remind them to stop doing shit to the codebase that annoys me

for some reason they’re all mad at me now, which means ill be adding commands to JEREMY.md for an attitude adjustment

Can anyone *imagine* what would have happened if it had become public, at the height of the financial crisis, that Mandelson was leaking to Wall Street, and advising bankers to threaten his own Government? To stop a tax on bankers' bonuses!

Would the Government have fallen?

It's getting very difficult to find #CreativeTech / #GameDev roles that don't require AI experience, and I simply refuse to engage in that.

I am actively looking for new creative projects, and I would love to work with a small team.

every time i see a white guy in their fifties radicalized by the twitter algorithm into racism and extremism i think about how it's a total failure of the youtube algorithm to instead radicalize him into home brewing, elaborate A/V setups, or DIY solar

this is a great (albeit wordy) article that really gives you pause for thought about how crap the workflows are in most creative apps. ikennd.ac/blog/2026/01... worth a read if you make any kind of creative tool

This perfectly demonstrates the pernicious nature of BBC two-sidism.

It almost always benefits the side with the most power.

In this case that's the side which is murdering peaceful protesters in the street, on camera, and then lying about it
The BBC coverage is absolutely terrible.

It leads on "sharply contested narratives"

It has a dramatic skew to the US government

It has posted the video but has failed to report on what it shows: it shows the US govt account is untrue
