So thanks, stock video, you gave me a new word! "Heafing" - showing random code in order for an audience to get that oh-look-programming-is-happening feeling.

[Josh @Botmasher]

I like the code snippets that show up in popular media. Saw one with no indentation and a lexical error in the closing head tag: </heaf>. So distracting I couldn't focus on the narrator anymore.

@JessRudder @Twitter "Panda, la-tala'hasha."

@IrisLillie I can live with that. :)

I fell asleep thinking about Redux and woke up to thoughts about unergative verbs. I'm like a passenger watching a brain go full nerd. Dunno if I'm bored or intrigued. Wait what I can keep typing... yessss I got the long tweets!!

[Josh @Botmasher]

@ablwr Your brain's most likely headed towards the Caribbean...

[Josh @Botmasher]

@ablwr @JessRudder Even though I'm looking wildly giddy over that satsivi....

Sketching art for next vid... sooo much hand cramp! Ditch this trackpad? Any such thing as a dirt-cheap drawing tablet??

Another anim video in #blender3d - in this one I tear my hair out over Tibetan! https://t.co/4an5TLpGLy

[Josh @Botmasher]

Finished an anim on Viking Runes! Enjoying hand-drawing characters for now. #blender3d still does my heavy work tho.

Coding #unity3d to render image sequences worked! Game engines churn out animations FAST!

[Josh @Botmasher]

Finished over a dozen Udacity classes, but the updated classroom now says my progress is all zeroes :(

[Josh @Botmasher]

Last year I watched an old talk by @AmiltonDiesel about using #unity3d to script fx and render for video. Just hit me how amazing this was.

[Josh @Botmasher]

NativLang & CompChomp got me tired of animating transitions in Blender video editor. Coding a UI for them instead!

[Josh @Botmasher]

@JessRudder Ruby may have your days, but Python is calling... Also, just say NO to that ctrl+space completion!

[Josh @Botmasher]

a quick cartoon meditation on my time with Kendō

[Josh @Botmasher]

Reworked my auto-color-grader to re-volume all voice audio. Even at 4am it was easy. Lovin Python + Blender for NLE!

[Josh @Botmasher]

Will be animating for CompChomp(); -- host & programmer @JessRudder shows us how the world is made of code starting early 2016!

[Josh @Botmasher]

Needed to color balance hundreds of video strips at once. Blender + Python to the rescue! #Blender3D

[Josh @Botmasher]

Nerdy admission: when I was a kid, some of my cartoon characters got Proto-Indo-European root words for names. Shhhhh...
