Several people have asked about whether it's ok to use this for a paid project/addon/asset pack etc.
Yes so do feel free. Code is under GPL tho so you will want to respect that, but the .blend file is dedicated to public domain (cc0) so do whatever u want

So, I made a hair shader that doesn't require any specially made meshes or textures.
Initially I made this work by sampling many normal directions rotated around the hair strand direction, but I eventually got an approximation working that doesn't rely on multi-sampling.

Was trying to capture https traffic of an android app.
However I don't have a rooted device (necessary to install sys level cert), so I turned to an emulator.
At first I picked some toB emus, regretted immediately.
Even worse I found it might have anti-tamper protection, crashes in many emus.

So, I get a lot of questions about generating procedural environments, but I was never great with the whole "show your work" thing in school, so let's try something: if you got questions, ask them here and I'll try to answer them* because learning is fun.

Was considering making a tool related to Steam web API. Thought trying out tRPC this time. Opened docs, "1. Create a router instance". But I'm developing client-only for a third-party rest api? *(No answer)*. Okay, mission aborted.

TIL in HTML, child element of `<pre>` element will only apply its padding to the first line of its children. If there are linebreaks in its children, the other lines will just ignore the padding, causing a weird first-line padding.
