Last week-end I built a watercolor simulator based on real physics (as much as possible). A lot of you asked to play with it so i improved it and it's now live. New since the prototype: - More pigments (52), based on the best research out there to predict... color mixes (Kubelka-Munk). - More luminous / glassy feel - Some fun experimental stuff like the salt and alcohol techniques to alter the texture, a backlight effect and a few more. - I also added a Code mode where the simulator prints its real function calls next to the sheet while you paint 🤓♥️ It's still largely based on the same physics model as my prototype: Curtis et al.'s "Computer-Generated Watercolor". All in the browser. Current status: building and implementing a kid-friendly version for Marble App. Plenty of awesome things to learn with watercolor painting!show more

This weekend I've been working on a watercolor simulator based (as much as possible) on real physics. It's built on Curtis et al.'s watercolor model (SIGGRAPH 1997) with a fluid layer, drifting pigment and wet paper fibers. I decided to explore this because I love watercolor painting, and when I do some, my favourite moment is when the pigments get mixed inside the water and spread chaotically. The transparency, the lack of control, the depth of the colors in that moment is what I enjoy the most. So I started to wonder how code could help fix that moment in time and started chatting with my bestie Claudy. Early WIP so don't mind the look.

Created a flag on the moon based with hyper-realistic physics with v0: The flag is simulated as a grid of particles connected by springs (cloth simulation). It's influenced by gravity, wind, air resistance. The initial approach v0 one-shotted was quite simplistic, but giving it references to more sophisticated approaches in C++ and Rust quickly improved it. It was mind-blowing it to see it deeply understand the physics and port new ideas across languages. It simulated a real sun for lighting, and procedurally generated moon-like terrain with craters. I found a sick free texture on Reddit that I uploaded and it layered on top. Another epic moment was watching it improve performance. It seamlessly moved the physics simulation to a Web Worker. (Kinda cool to see given we just improved support for them in Turbopack 😉)

I built a browser entirely powered by Nano Banana 🍌 It generates each website based only on the URL. You can even navigate to other links. A truly new kind of internet, generated on the fly, and it's super fun.

Nintendo had a plan to build a CD-ROM adapter for SuperFamicom. Sony suggested it and it almost came out like that picture. But Nintendo overturned the project and Sony developed a prototype. A few years ago, I built a prototype with a real PlayStation 1 based on that picture.

Thank you so much for all the love on the stripped down version of Mr. Know it All! My best pal JJ and I decided to record a live, one take of it on the road in a hotel room to put out on all platforms and it's all yours tonight! I love you so much!!

Sunday v0: a web-based 3D Jenga game. Everything is procedurally generated: the structure, the bricks, the wooden texture, the sounds, the carved-in ▲ on the top pieces. I tweaked the physics enough that it feels as fun and frustrating as the real thing 😂 Cool technical detail: v0 loaded a R3F (react-three-fiber) Skill automatically when I first asked for a 3d game. Anecdotally it seems that it totally nailed how to work with 3D!

Finally getting some time to upgrade a few things on Curater. Mostly back-end, preparing the ground for the next set of changes. The new feed is more focused on the intention of the curation. And also tweaking the model to identify details on images and generate useful questions for users to engage – still not a lot of engagement on pinning, but it will happen... I still believe the pinning as the main piece for the TasteScope engine.

Javier Bardem says he's learned to lean into the "play" of acting as he's gotten older: "For me, it's more about a game. You use your imagination to jump in and step out of it. I respect everybody's process. As long as those processes respect the other people's processes. But for me, the fun part is to really be part of a group of people that imagine things that don't exist, and they create it together based on the fact that it's all a big lie."

Just added wind in my voxel engine! Trees and plants now sway, which makes the world feel way less static. It's a simple effect, but seeing the forest move with the breeze adds a lot of life to the game. As much as I want this wind effect on the Dreamcast, I can't guarantee it. It may end up as a PC-exclusive perk.

lando's sweet message to all his fans ❤️ "just thanks for taking your time to come support me, to cheer me on. genuinely, like my motivation in my racing career was once i want what's best for me and i want to win. and over the years, it really turned a lot more into i want to win for you, for my team, my supporters, my friends. it's a much, much better motivation when externally people are there to support you and cheer you on. and it makes me much happier, the fact that i get to make other people have a good time and hopefully party on sunday nights and those kind of things. like the fact you can bring happiness and joy to others is way better than just trying to bring it to yourself. so the last few years i learned that a lot more and therefore i get to enjoy all of my experiences with you guys that are in papaya and in my yellow as well. it's so much more fun for me to get to share those experiences. and as much as i'm world champion, we're all world champions together because you supported me in that journey."

VERY COOL!! Thanks jordan for the tip, I can now test my iOS app on web I asked Claude Code to set up serve-sim, a web-based iOS simulator that can stream the iOS app my Claude Code on VPS built live to me, because it's on some Mac Mini in the cloud without even a GUI (it's headless) I cannot actually try it on the Mac itself! Before Claude would make me a page with screenshots but I had no idea how the app felt, now with this it works This is hosted on the Mac Mini via SSH (it shows localhost but it's a tunnel via SSH to the Mac Mini), bit laggy but nice!

i removed the tail on my character a while ago cause it was causing some issues.... and was kinda annoying to animate but i always wanted it to come back so now its physics based !! still needs a bunch of tweakin but yeeeee

ok so about 5-6 hours in godot, here i am render wise it's amazing. Physics is so much easier as it's a built in feature, you can also bake lighting on the go as you design your scene, it's fun to play with it time to play with shader #indiedev #indiegamedev

Since Covid, golf has become increasingly more mainstream. Scottie Scheffler was asked ahead of the Travelers Championship how he feels about the impact it’s had on the game: “Yeah, I think it's great for golf to become more mainstream. I think you see, especially since COVID, there's been a tremendous growth in the amount of people that are playing golf. “I think it's the greatest game in the world. You learn a lot about life. I met some of my best friends in the whole world playing golf. So for people getting involved in the sport I think is tremendous. “Like I said, getting to spend four hours with somebody outside hanging out playing a game is something that's pretty rare in the busyness I think that we live in today. So getting out taking some time with your buddies and going to play golf is one of the most fun things you can do. Especially when you start playing, you learn a lot about life and how to handle things and it's a challenging game as well, so overall I think it's just a great sport for anybody to get involved in.” PGA TOUR TravelersChamp

✨ A lot of progress on my drone sim today which has now evolved to a kind of soldier + drone sim (my entry to the #vibejam even though I can't win of course) Today I changed the sounds from synth to real sounds, I edited a lot in Audacity to make these shooting loops and now it sounds much more real Also added ambient background sounds like nature birds but also general like distant war sounds And of course you hear the drone sound we had before The new game mode I'll show soon is you start as a soldier and you have like 3 drones in your backpack you can use, you press F and then you launch a drone from your point and attack, then if you exit that or it crashes you're back to being a soldier, very fun With the sounds it feels much more real and scary! I keep saying but then next is multiplayer...cause I want to see you all walk and fly around in my game 😊😊😊

When AI took off a few years ago, I launched a podcast (typical VC move) to talk to the people building all the coolest stuff. It was fun, and I learned a lot. But I quickly realized every tech podcast looks the same. Including mine. And I got bored. Then, I got inspired by new formats from shows like TBPN and indievc, and tested a few episodes where I got out of the office (with my dude Semil) and out into the real world and ditched the prep materials. It was a lot more fun, and the viewers seemed to like it, too. So today, we at Lightspeed are launching a new show dedicated to just that: No office, no Zoom, no filter. It's called Out of Office. The first episode, featuring my good friend Casey Neistat, drops on Tuesday. It's a good hang. Subscribe below. K thanks.

Can AI create an app based on the database schema? I connected Supabase with tables to Lovable. Then asked it to create an app based on the schema! The AI picked up my intention and created a social app. With better prompting, this could be a new way of building an app!
