a still from the animation above, which hopefully doesn't have as aggressive compression
Freya's photo of a couple walking and holding hands on a sidewalk, on a rainy night
a blurry photo of Sickan, a currently very cuddly tuxedo cat
my weird non-euclidean space thing with gravitational lines along a bridge
code snippet for a function called bislerp: // bilinear spherical interpolation static quat bislerp(quat q00, quat q01, quat q10, quat q11, float2 uv) { return slerp( slerp(q00, q01, uv.x), slerp(q10, q11, uv.x), uv.y ); }
Unity compiling its built in shader for 45 seconds because I navigated to a different corner of the scene
a photo of Kerstin (the cat) sitting in a forest glade
a diagram showing a progression of mapping a pair of lower dimensional spherical areas to the higher dimensional spherical surface, mapping a pair of value ranges to the circle, discs to the sphere, and spherical volumes to the hypersphere
Discord message disabling my account for a joke I made 6 years ago
Yuki wandering about looking around curiously
Yuki, a mostly-white adorable tortoiseshell cat who looks shocked 95% of the time
Code for a generalized lerp function in C#, that allows for almost any data type you want without runtime checks or allocations! requires modern C# and .net which means Freya can't use her code in unity, this makes her sad
a sensibly exposed cat tree with an overexposed background
a log scale photo of toast in a cat tree
four images: 1. a slightly slanted photo of a 15 digit number 2. an increased contrast grayscale version of it 3. the fourier transform (2D DFT) of the image 4. the fourier transform with increased contrast, clearly showing the repeating slanted patterns
labeled nested rectangles, from outermost to innermost: Camera, Viewport, Capture, Digits
digit parsing of a filtered photo in black and white, showing it gets the number about 75% right
a photo of Melvin held by one of his humans
Melvin wandering about with his three legs (he's missing his right hind leg after a car accident in his past)
closeup Melvin (the cat) showing off his exquisitely round face
closeup of Salad's front paws
a small code snippet for mirroring a quaternion rotation, by getting the conjugate of the reflection of the vector components around the mirror plane normal
Kit (the cat) hanging out, looking like a bit of a doofus as usual <3
martin (the cat) resting on his side on various blankets, with IV fluids, a cone, and a shaved but patched up belly

a flow state chart with both polar markers/sectors in a cartesian graph. the cartesian axes are marked with skills along X and challenges along Y, but named sectors divided in polar chunks for some reason. The polar axes are unlabeled because it probably has no real meaning
Flow state chart. X axis is skills, Y axis is challenge. Top left sector is marked "anxiety", a thick diagonal is marked "Flow channel", bottom right sector is marked "boredom"
Bosse (the cat), an adorable tuxedo guy who is finally home!
Photo of Otis (the cat) low key winking at me (I'm honored)
Otis (the cat) shaking some sand out of his coat
salad (the cat) looking weird as usual
tweet from altNOAA with an AI generated image of a whale hopping over a dam/gate, defending the use of AI saying it was for a good cause, calling those who dislike it because it's AI, emotionally shallow
paper printout portraits of the crew from Return of the Obra Dinn, along with the crew manifest
a photo of Otis (the cat) in a patch of grass looking for birds
salad, thor, and toast (the cats) waiting for breakfast in the bedroom
salad (the cat) next to a duvet looking squinty
Toast and Salad both looking smug on the (yet to be made) bedsheet
Toast loafing on a bedsheet looking pretty smug about it
Two lumps under a bedsheet
a photo of Zelda (the cat) being out late at night with her owner, who is trying to convince her to come back inside, even though she slept away the whole day indoors (grave injustice)
A photo of EB (the cat) walking down the street, taken by Freya last summer
That one cat that's really close to the camera for the look inside meme. I wish I knew their name!
Three characters in a bell curve meme, starting from the left: "This is just another form of automation (it was good for us). Prior automation can be categorized as A but this new automation is actually type B and this B is a new kind of automation which is different because now it's actually taking away a greater degree of agency, while the previous ones mostly got rid of menial tasks nobody really wants to do anyway. However, jobs like coal mining is an interesting example because while it's true that- This is yet another form of automation (it was bad for us)"
