IE. I use crockford base 32 as a human readible iterator as a mask for my UUID/ULIDs for my assets. In Postgres that conversion is very fast and simple to do in the database itself and to call and convert values in the query it self. I could do this in business rules / back end but that means more

The main thing was all the features I was missing out on and out of the box integrations. I would be using gel db or surreal db if I had a team I think, but I love my tools like Navicat, DbVisualiser, DbDiag and DbDocs and SchemaSpy. Not to mention all the run time database side automation and code.

HA! V0.3 already, chucked on a Sunayfoto pano base plate on the bottom, and now it fits in my arca swiss style tripod. Which means things like texture photography can be locked in and dont need to change the rig. HDRi macbeth infront of 90mm for Comedic Effect.

@tylerbaikie.bsky.social Thanks for the help with exposing me to the custom stuff of 'cheese plates'. Before i was looking at going through a dental rig which seemed like a nightmare in comparison to this
0.1 was the same rig but trying to make a single double 15mm rail clamp work. Not enough 1/4s!

Yeah, the people listing and follow/block lists are great but organised bookmarks are so important, especially for those of us being used to Pinterest

Cows injur and cause death more than sharks per year but, I feel trying to milk this cow would be even more deqdly.

Yep I quit Facebook when the only content was trash drop ship advertising I didn't ask for, rage / click bait communities and idiot relatives posting AI as if reality, and defending hitting share on some really toxic propaganda as it being "yeah but it's a good idea"

I wish the tour on the boat was longer. The blackwater rafting goes much longer than the casual and gentle walk through.

A great supe also told me, that you'll do a ton of stuff in your career and fall in love with different things. Finding what you dont want to do, is more important than finding the perfect match. Your own passions can brew over time through what ever you end up doing.

Yeah when you're advocating that your government is for everyone as an all encompassing sovreignty, but then dont even show up to the the qualms about it... it's pretty telling.

For me I just know I have limited time, and I’d rather collaborate with artists while I scan the world and build worlds in my head. Art is a repeated practice that you need to hunger after, and we all have our own art outlets.

I’m a world builder at heart and wish I had the time to polish my skills to be able to do these types of layouts and designs. But collaborating is just as great.
