RE: @zackwhittaker@mastodon.social

True story: many years ago working at an agency, one customer was Littlewoods Pools and they had a MySpace page. We managed to persuade MySpace to allow us to point to a JS file we hosted on our server, which then hijacked the page and completely replaced it - to then have an Adobe Air installer on it

Still amazed we got away with it 😅

In two minds about this. Myself I have an entirely local Ollama -> Trellis2 -> Blender MCP pipeline that I'm working on that works on my M3 - still some challenging parts, but the end to end works fine - because I'm not an artist and I need rough one-shot elements.

AI + Blender, done as part of someone's own pipeline can have it's benefits too 🤷🏼‍♀️

This article really struck a cord because in almost every employer I've had over the last few years - onboarding has been the thing they constantly fail on. My previous employer literally threw me into the worst office politics within the first two weeks, which eventually lead me to burn out really badly. Even my current one wasn't great (although we got passed it and I'm now at least trying to do something about it)

"When someone struggles, most teams reach for the easiest explanation first. Maybe the hire was not as strong as they seemed. Maybe they lack urgency. Maybe they are too dependent. Maybe they are not senior enough.

...

Once that happens, the damage compounds. The hire is judged through a distorted lens. The team learns the wrong lesson. The environment stays broken. And the next person goes through the same ritual again, with the same predictable results."

Of all the absolutely terrible things Trump and this US administration has done, the thing I personally hate the most is:

A) I don't care about this Moon stuff, and I was a big space kid

B) Even if aliens are real, Trump is absolutely the worst person in the world to disclose - I'd rather not know.

Basically these fuckers have destroyed the joy in so many things
