To show you what can be done in very short time. — I save easily a week’s worth of time every month by using a handful of tools for recurring processes — processes that other people do manually without even thinking about automating them. So, instead of detailed technical guides, I want to show you the tools and scripts that I use…

In 2023, Your Code Could Change The Lives Of Regular People

And I will be your first customer — 2022 was a messy year for me, I have never been so glad to see things quiet down. Over the course of this year, I have always kept my little document of notes, and realized that I myself will never get around to building the tools in this post. The…

Soft(ware) Skills That Matter More Than Writing Code

And that will help you in your career and office life in general — I think the tech world shared a moment of collective frowning when Twitter employees were allegedly judged by the number of lines of code written by the sink-carrier in chief. It doesn’t take a genius to know that is a stupid metric (and by the way: what exactly is salient…

A Huge Market For Your Programming Skills

The world of 3D very much craves automation and you could deliver it. — My fascination with 3D art is old, spanning back a decade to the days when I would watch Andrew Price after school and got excited when a guy called Jonathan Williamson posted a new video. I would check the URLs manually on my iPod Touch when I wasn’t busy playing…

Programming 3D Comic Speech Bubbles In Blender

Because the art of code allows us to code the art — Most programmers are probably unaware of how large a market waits for them in the world of 3D art. We usually think of art as something more creative rather than technical, and it is easy to overlook the huge potential for automation, scripts, addons and procedural materials. In my case…

Why I Stopped Using Python in Favor of C#

Even though Python lives rent-free in my heart — Python has a special place in my heart simply because I wrote my first useful programs in it, which made me learn more than my professional software apprenticeship did at the time. However, as of late, I have started using C# exclusively, and I want to write about why today. C# Has Become Just As Simple To Set Up …

Programming RenPy Games For Fun And Profit

And a surprisingly good creative outlet. — You may not even be aware of how big a niche Visual Novel games are — I certainly wasn’t until a few years ago.

If You Miss The Instagram Of Old, Vero Is Actually Pretty Sweet Stuff

And it looks like the community has reached critical mass — Everyone I know who is into photography has complained about Instagram in recent years, and I am certainly no example. I stopped using it about a year ago, it’s just a mess. Literally, hundreds of “Instagram alternatives” videos have popped up, and it really goes to show how far they…
