  • Yeah, the new pipeline is based HEAVILY on object inheritance and method/property calls so there is a paper trail for ALL of it. Also using Abstract Base Classes so future developers are forced to adhere to the architecture. It has to be in Python, but I am also trying to use the type hinting as much as humanly possible to force things into something resembling a typed codebase.


  • I literally told my boss that I was just going to rebuild the entire pipeline from the ground up when I took over the codebase. The legacy code is a massive pile of patchwork spaghetti that takes days just to track down where things are happening because someone, in their infinite wisdom, decided to just pass a dictionary around and add/remove shit from it so there is no actual way to find where or when anything is done.






  • The Bhor’s model is at least a useful simplification of the atomic structure. What needs taught is that everything you learn before college and intensive narrow topical courses is simplified to the point of being incorrect with the hope that you get enough of an intrinsic understanding of the concept that the less simplified explanation you get next will make sense. I say this because it will still be simplified to the point of being wrong, but will be a step closer to the truth. This is the essence of education.

    • Elementary/middle school: ice is water that has frozen solid
    • HS: ice is water that has lost enough energy that the molecules form a crystalline lattice.
    • College: there are actually 19 or 20 kinds of water ice that have been verified, but as many as 74,963 might exist.
    • Post-collegiate: There may be 74,963 kinds of ice, but I know one ICE we should definitely eliminate from this world.


  • The word copulate has been around since the late 1400’s (before the colonization of North America by Europe) and Old English had the word hǽmed which dates back to the middle ages.

    You are confusing euphemism with language and applying puritanical systemic manipulation to language. That is censorship and it does not mean that the words don’t exist in the language. Whole different can of worms.

    Yes, it has been proven that language and having words to describe things changes the way the brain processes things. There are languages without a word to describe the color Blue, and in fact the people who speak that language struggle to differentiate it from green when tested. Once teaching them a language which includes a word for the color, eventually their brain begins to be able to differentiate it. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20180419-the-words-that-change-the-colours-we-see

    Yes, yes, but we live in this timeline so the research that will be done into the mediating factors will 100% become a “breast enlargement therapy” in health spas should it even remotely be found to be repeatable, controllable and safe be damned.


  • I made this comment on a previous post. Vibe Coding is to Coding as Previsualization (Previs is to Visual Effects. (Previs description) A quick slap job that is used to make sure timing is correct, on set assets will all work, and to communicate to artists, directors, producers, and on-set operators what is expected. It is entirely separate from the final product and nothing ever crosses the barrier between Preproduction and Production.
