Barrier-grid animations are a clever way to create a... moving picture that doesn’t actually move — w/o electronics. MIT's "FabObscura" software helps you produce bolder designs for these displays, which can be attached to objects in homes, stores, & more:show more

Some of you may have noticed that in #EmoteLab... you can switch animations or characters while recording 👀 We decided to keep this behavior because it can be a fun way to create some interesting results...show more

HANDLE THE BALL AGAINST PRESSURE This clip is a... masterclass in handling the ball against pressure. Most players think that the more moves they make, the better BallHandler they are. In reality, a players ability to Start-Go-Stop is what makes them productive. Do you have a starting move that can get you downhill. On that ‘go’ can you be in control under pressure. Then, do you have the ability to stop to create separation, and be comfortable in a face up so that you can make a decision and play.show more

Coaches confuse advice for beginners vs advice for advanced... lifters Many coaches will tell you that you need to pull the slack out of the bar Not true. If you’re strong enough you can be aggressive and actually create more force this way Most people aren’t strong enough to do this, that doesn’t mean pulling the slack is the only way to deadlift This is why I like Power Rows, and it’s why I’m so aggressive on my DB rows, and deadstop rows You can train your body to perform this way, which has a much higher strength ceiling IMO Calvin.Maloney on IGshow more

I build a mini site for every project I... work on at Here’s why I take the time to do it—and how these little sites bring my designs to life. 1️⃣ To tell a deeper story Each project I create isn’t just a design—it’s a story. Mini sites let me share the inspiration, narrative, and thought process behind my work in a way Instagram posts can’t. 2️⃣ To create an experience I want my designs to feel more than physical. These sites extend the experience, letting you interact with and explore the project digitally in a playful way. 3️⃣ To showcase details Instagram is great, but it’s limited. Mini sites give me a bigger canvas to share high-quality images and intricate design details in the way they deserve to be seen. 4️⃣ To gauge interest Through email signups, I can see how excited people are about a project. It’s also a great way to connect directly and offer updates or early access. 5️⃣ To build independence By hosting these sites, I’m growing a direct connection with my audience—independent of vendors or platforms. It’s a way to create a community around my work. 6️⃣ Because it’s fun! I love web design. These sites let me experiment, explore my passion for multidisciplinary work, and create something unique for every project. These mini sites bring my projects to life in ways that go beyond the physical designs. Want to check them out? Head to and explore!show more

Simulations are extremely powerful in Houdini, but even more... powerful is leveraging the procedural system to create "real-time" simulations. These effects are driven by a mix of attributes and simple operations that you can build on to create complex results. Master SOP Workflows with these courses 30% Off for the next few daysshow more

Here are the steps to create this animation: 1.... Design and model your own mech in Plasticity. 2. Import the model into the animation software 3ds Max. 3. Create the animation on your own. 4. Render and export the monochrome model animation. 5. Make the final render for reference. 6. Use Seedance 2 to re-render your monochrome model animation according to the reference render you provided. Summary: In this workflow, Seedance 2 acts as a renderer that saves you hours of rendering time. All other work has to be done manually by yourself. Don’t blindly believe that AI can fully produce mech animations for you — it simply cannot do that.show more

The trend in China is that more robotics companies... are opening stores where anyone can see and interact with the robots. It’s no longer necessary for everyone to contact a salesperson or visit the company’s office. BTW, I like the store designs of both EngineAI and AgiBot!show more

Nigerians, which way? When is this madness going to... end? Where are these people getting these resources from? How are they moving around without being tracked? If they can board planes, can't they be identified and arrested?? And is that not a Nigerian Army uniform on every single one of them? What exactly is going on in this country?show more

Republican Senator John Curtis is calling on Elon Musk... & DOGE to have more "compassion" for federal employees. "Please put a dose of compassion in this. These are real people. These are real lives. These are mortgages. It's a false narrative to say we have to cut and you have to be cruel to do it as well. We can do both."show more

I think Apple’s design direction for the iPhone is... moving away from what I would consider as “simplicity” to “playfulness” lately. I personally don’t think most of these are bad in terms of how they look (they are actually beautiful), but I feel like they just look a little off next to other iOS visual elements. For example: • Action button settings • Dynamic Island animations • Much more bouncy Control Centre animations • Redesigned iMessage attachment/“+”menushow more

(Maybe 5 pictures and 2 drone footage) Considering people are looking for great picture perfect places to snap pictures in.show more

Free housing. Free food. Free protection from predators. There... are a lot of perks for beetles and other tiny organisms that live covertly inside ant colonies. But as it turns out, there is a potential downside, too: no way out. Researchers report that a species of rove beetle has taken a one-way evolutionary journey, evolving a clever way to disguise itself that it’ll never be able to undo. If they ever stop refreshing their cloak, they will die. The findings convincingly show how tight knit ecological cohabitation can become locked in. Learn more:show more

The resurrection body, in my opinion, is actually a... body made of pure energy—a plasma body, or a body made of the fourth state of matter—which interacts strongly with electromagnetic energy. This body can then appear in any form it wants, as it can manipulate electromagnetic waves and our perception. God came in a physical, material body to show you the way to achieve transfiguration and the heavenly, immortal body. Jesus showed you the way, and that way can be found in every religion, hidden in plain sight.show more

Introducing RL Environment Creator Skill Now any one can... create RL environments $ npx skills add adithya-s-k/RL_Envs_101 > You can create environments across multiple frameworks like OpenEnv, OpenReward, Verifiers, NemoGym ... > the repo has live working examples of environments that your coding agent can reference > The skill is design to first understand what type of model you are training and create an environment while keeping that in mind ps. There’s a lot more to building RL environments that can be used for training. One major aspect is the data, which this skill can’t directly solve. However, the skill will help with implementing tools, rewards, and other components of an RL environment, making it easier to go from idea to implementation quickly across different frameworks. Let me know if you’d be interested in a detailed, end-to-end blog/tutorial on building an environment and actually training a model for a useful use case.show more

Rivian is releasing this super cool Halloween update where... you can “dress up” your Rivian in one of three themes. Another showcase of their vertical integration of software / hardware / fun engineers! The “Trunk or Treat” option is perfect for leaving your Rivian in the driveway to create a spooky aura during the trick-or-treat hours 😱. There are a few different freaky music choices but the best part is you can select from a bunch of different scary sounds from a sound board on your mobile app to freak people out as they approach your truck. This comes on top of the other fantastic improvements found in the software package 2024.39 - which include a gauge cluster refresh, third zone climate control (rear can now be set to a different temp), and more! I’ve been lucky enough to play around with these updates for a bit BUT you really should go check out Jose | RivianTrackr for the full detailed information on the Halloween surprises. Rivian will release these features tomorrow to the wide user base ⚡️show more
