Some data is terrifying "employees using Microsoft 365 are interrupted every 2 minutes by a meeting, email, or notification".
No wonder everyone has a hard time focusing and almost everyone I know experiences ADHD-like symptoms.

I'm organising a technical art meetup at Develop: Brighton! ✨
I found it hard to find others last year so wanted to try running a little group this time. Even if you can't join, do share so others can see it.

So disappointed hearing about Firewalk closing, the team killed it despite such an uphill battle in a difficult to break in space. If you or anyone you know is looking for work, TNM is hiring a number of roles still

Let's fill the timeline here as well:

A few months ago I released Asset Cooker, a build system aimed at game assets, with a UI.

It is using the USN journals from Windows to robustly keep track of file changes, and only cook what needs to be cooked.

I'm gonna try to completely get rid of my twitter usage. It's such a cesspool and with the AI push, I just can't knowingly continue to even use it, even passively! So, I'm Nyla and I'll post art, travel and food 😍

I made a starter pack of tech artists and tech artist adjacent people. Basically if I follow you and you post about shaders or graphics you're in it.

Started setting up a starter pack for technical and vfx artists here!

It's not conclusive yet, I'll update it as I go, but it should be a great start to find some awesome artists ✨
