Making 3D animation feel genuinely 2D used to mean manually modeling weird, distorted meshes for every single smear frame. Now, a free Blender add-on handles it automatically. SMEAR—developed as part of a SIGGRAPH 2024 research paper—lets you bake procedural elongated in-betweens, ghosting multiples, and speed lines directly along your...

If you think this is just another silly demo made with AI, read this post. You might change your mind, because this demo is about MATH. What you see on the screen is not a render from Blender (obviously, it’s not that good). It’s a three.js app built with Toolcraft. Available on the web and rendered in real time(link in the comments). But Blender still has a lot to do with it. Blender has Geometry Nodes - a powerful node-based system for creating and manipulating procedural geometry. In other words, it’s math. And math is a universal language. And who do you think is pretty good at math? >>> AI. Now you can download or buy Blender files from marketplaces, and when they contain Geometry Nodes for procedural animations, objects, surfaces, or effects, you can transfer that logic to the web. Make it real-time, make it interactive. Materials are a separate story, of course. They can still suck unless you use the right tricks: PBR, HDRIs, material blending, displacement, and faked surface relief. So why is Blender important here? Blender is open source, and many tools around it are open source too. An AI trained on their code. That means it can translate the math from one environment to another quite accurately. If you’ve been struggling to reproduce some idea with AI that you had in your head or seen in some references, and it has something to do with Geometry Nodes, and you can find that idea or a close one in the Blender ecosystem - it means you can transfer it to the web. Thank me later.

Is your toddler suddenly throwing (or dropping) everything they get their hands on? Food, toys… you name it. You’re not alone. This week I’ve been introducing play schemas, 9 common patterns that can help to demystify your toddler’s seemingly random behaviors. And you guessed it: this is one. We call it the trajectory schema. If you take nothing else away from this post, let it be this: your little one doesn’t throw things because they are misbehaving or “bad.” Babies throw things because they are babies. And they are learning as they do so. Learning about cause and effect. Learning about gravity. Learning what (and practicing something new) they can do with their bodies. Learning hand-eye coordination. It’s a completely normal part of development. And the fascination won’t last forever. The real question is, how do you manage it? First, be proactive. Expect that anything your little one handles might reasonably be thrown or dropped. So choose wisely, avoiding items that are valuable or might pose a danger to them or others if they suddenly took flight. Second, depending on the age of your child, begin introducing some natural consequences. Put the toy/object away temporarily after it is thrown (if throwing it is dangerous or inappropriate). And involve your child in the subsequent clean-up. You can also redirect. Explain which things are and are not for throwing. Model the correct use of these objects. Finally, lean into it. Recognizing that young children are drawn to throwing, provide items that are safe and acceptable to throw. Soft toys. Socks. Balls. And look for opportunities and settings for your little one to explore this urge safely and appropriately. How did you manage your toddler’s throwing phase? Welcome your tips and tricks!

How 2 psyop yourself to success 🍸🥂 Visualization > + unmatchable lvls of desire (for a specific goal other than money) >> get addicted to work. [ and most importantly DREAM big, DREAM about it, think about it, work for it, and do it every single day, while your sleeping think about it, when you eat, do it, when your walking do it, when your working think about it] In lab studies I’ve compiled tons of data for behavior in hopes of using it for marketing purposes However, it also if curated shows you the triggers people react to The mindset changes that curate and sway them to do more of x (in this case work and create insane drive to achieving a goal or YOUR goals) Remember, every stimuli, every reaction curates your mind. When you come in contact with whatever it may be it sways your future behavior & current attitude/ psychological state So at all times if you want it bad enough you should try to curate your environment (special music that gets you in the mood or NO music, depends on the person bc music distracts you thus means you work less OR if you’re brain storming then it helps) Take out all negative energy, comments, or bs that distracts you and breaks your momentum because one it breaks from the smallest thing then that snowballs and has a negative effect going forward Another thing that I personally like to do is read and put myself into those shoes. For me it’s business and mindset related books and nothing compares to John D. Rockefeller’s mindset, work ethic and GRIT, his absolute desire for SUCCESS : I like his 38 letters to his son, John D the founding fathers of the rockefellers, and a study in power. And most importantly you need to just want it bad enough. Lose sleep for it, not because you want it but because you want it so bad that you’re working nonstop to get to it. This is how Rockefeller succeeded How Elon musk succeeded James Dyson Andrew Carnegie And most importantly how Peter kell succeeded All these billionaires and killers got hyper successful because of their drive and mindsets. It’s so important. If you believe something so strongly it’s revisited your mind to making it reality. Ex. Study DOI: 2003.11.018 > strongly visualizing exceedingly finger abductors boosted muscle strength by 35% Another study showed that basketball players who visualized making free throws showed significant improvement over others. And so on and so on. We as marketers have practiced this forever. We know when we tell a emotional story it changes the viewers mind, and we can lead that into a sale at a much higher conversion rate To get a brutal mindset focused on a dream you have that you truly want with your entire being is the result of the same hormones and neuro pathways after they have been curated and triggered by specific stimuli like in a VSL or ad You need to build your mind, you need to build a dream and want it, give yourself inspiration with books and ideas and positive energy. Build motivation and joy by watching others do it and building proof elements that it can really be done in your mind. Break the barriers and limits Movies are good for this, I like edits for this exact reason because yes it can lead you to doom scrolling but also it can be so so valuable in making you see that goal, want it even more and go for it. I personally really like war dogs, lord of war, limitless, and probably a lot more I’m forgetting. But you get the idea. Your success is in your hands alone, if you believe it fully and truly with a pure heart, then it will happen. Good luck🥂 P.s. * I will drop data, sauce, and more info about this and the methods & stimuli I talked about in this thread continuously so bookmark and come back to check them out.

DOING PAP SMEAR IS BREAK UP OFFENSE? BEING "PENETRATED" BY A SPECULUM IS BREAK UP OFFENSE? You'll be surprised many men feel this way, ... WALK WITH ME GUYS Dear Sqah , Let me speak as a gynae doctor and brother, and I will be very clear. A Pap smear is not sex. A speculum is not a sexual organ. And cervical cancer screening is not infidelity, immorality, or a threat to your masculinity. A speculum is a medical instrument, designed to gently part the vaginal walls so a clinician can see the cervix. Nothing more. There is no pleasure involved. No intimacy. No competition. The fact that you feel 'threatened' by stainless steel or plastic tells me this is not about medicine, it is about insecurity, and it is misplaced. Now let us talk facts, since feelings are clearly louder than science here. Cervical cancer is caused almost entirely by Human Papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is a sexually transmitted virus, and most sexually active people, men included, will acquire it at some point. Women are screened because persistent HPV can cause cervical cancer. That screening saves lives. Full stop. But here is the part you seem not to know, and you must hear it plainly: HPV does not respect gender. The same virus that causes cervical cancer can also cause penile cancer, anal cancer, and cancers of the throat and mouth in men. There is no routine Pap smear for men. No easy early warning system. When HPV-related cancers appear in men, they often present late and outcomes are worse. So when your girlfriend attends a Pap smear, she is not “being penetrated.” She is protecting her life. And by reducing persistent HPV infection, she is also protecting yours. In other words: She is doing herself a favour. And she is doing you a favour. Now let me address the deeper issue,because it needs to be said. Jealousy of a medical procedure is not love. Control disguised as 'standards' is not morality. And ignorance spoken loudly is still ignorance. In 2026, it is frankly shameful that anyone still frames women’s preventive healthcare as a loyalty test. This mindset discourages screening, delays diagnosis, and contributes directly to avoidable deaths. That is not opinion, that is epidemiology. If you truly care about your partner, you should be driving her to the appointment, not threatening a breakup over it. You should be asking how to support her, not projecting insecurity onto a lifesaving procedure. Love protects. Love learns. Love does not compete with a speculum. And finally, this is said firmly, but with goodwill:A woman who prioritises her health is not disrespecting you.She is showing wisdom. You would do well to grow into it.

STOP KILLING YOUR GEARBOX 😡😡😡🤬 (Correct sequence to park an automatic car ) You’ve been parking your automatic car the wrong way for years, and it is slowly destroying your transmission. Most people just pull into a spot, slam the gear into P (Park), and then pull the handbrake. If you’re doing this, you are literally asking your gearbox to hold the entire weight of your car. Here is the Right way to do it in 5 steps: 1. Come to a full stop with your foot on the brake. 2. Shift the gear to N (Neutral). 3. Pull your Handbrake (or engage the electronic parking brake) with your foot still on the foot brake 4. Engage Parking Gear 5. Remove Your Foot from the Brakes. Why should you do this? Inside your transmission, there’s a tiny metal pin called a Parking Pawl. When you put the car in Park (P) without using the handbrake first, that tiny pin is the only thing stopping your car from rolling away. If you are parked on a hill or a slope, the stress on that pin is massive. Have you ever noticed that loud, painful CLUNK sound when you try to shift out of Park on a hill or slope? That’s the sound of your transmission screaming. You are literally forcing the gears to grind against that pinned-up weight. Over time, you’re rounding off the edges of that metal pin or, worse, snapping it. The handbrake was designed to hold the weight of the car onto the chassis frame. The transmission was designed to shift gears. Stop making the gearbox do the heavy lifting. Except of course you want to replace it regularly (that's not cheap). You're welcome 🤝🏾 .

this is the worst local ai will ever be. it only gets better from here. if you are not expanding your mind with these small models you are missing what's happening right now 99 percent tool call success rate. when steered well with the right skills and a framework like hermes agent the node becomes a cognition layer. not a chatbot. not a toy. an extension of how you think. i was cranking this node at 35 to 50 tok/s all day on personal experiments and now after all the work is done qwen 3.5 9B is iterating on its own code. the game it created. fixing its own bugs autonomously. and the part you should probably not miss is that all of this is happening on a RTX 3060. not an H100. not an A100. the card most of you have sitting in a drawer right now. if you just open that drawer and put that intelligence to work every tensor core on that card should be running for you. your work. your experiments. your thinking. you all have it but because nobody told you what this hardware can actually do in 2026 you never tried. the day it unlocks is the day you test your workload, understand the tradeoffs, debug the loops, and then decide if you need to scale the hardware. there is no point buying 3 mac studios when things done well you can squeeze a similar level of intelligence from 9B compared to 70B. but only when you create the right environment for your model through the right harness. and let me tell you i have tried claude code as a local harness. i have tried opencode. i have tried various others. somehow i landed on hermes agent and never left. there is something magical going on at Nous Research. the tool call parsers, the skills system, the way it handles small models natively. nothing else comes close for local inference. own your cognition. your AI. your agent. your prompts. your experiments. why give them away for free. those are who you are and they don't belong on someone else's servers being monitored. just give it a shot with your existing hardware. you run into a problem the community will help you. and if you are migrating from openclaw to hermes i will personally help you make the switch.

Taste is invisible until you try to write it down. This is probably my biggest lesson with AI building as of late. At Sundial, I get to work with really friggin' amazing analysts who know the art, and I see how much of our collective time now is now spent turning that art into playbooks or skills for an LLM. Encoding things like: "How would a great analyst actually look at this metric move?" or "What is ACTUALLY the interesting signal in this story versus noise?" or "How can we know if a product change actually moved the needle?" It's really humbling work! You write an instruction set. The LLM misses. You add more context. It still misses. You add even more. Now it's confused. You strip it back. Now it's too vague. You try a different framing. Better, but inconsistent. Works on Monday, fails on Tuesday. You go again. I've come to realize the gap between 70% quality and 95% quality is not 3 or 4 big things. It's more like 100s of small things. Which is exactly why you can't write an article about it, or copy it, or shortcut it! This gap *is* taste, quantified. The accumulated weight of a thousand small judgments you don't notice you're making, until you sit down to externalize them and realize you can't. Being good at something is not the same as being able to articulate why you're good at it. I now see two bottlenecks to making something better than today's generic AI: 1. Can you *see* what better looks like in the first place? 2. Even if you can see, can you *articulate* what that is in a way that the LLM can understand and systemize? #2 is now a new craft, the art of distilling the art. The people who can do it well are the ones building standout products.
