I've worked with frontend a lot, but my ideal role is to help shape the UX of a product, by some mix of working with a founder or product owner, designing/prototyping, then building the frontend. Hybrid roles are very satisfying, but I'd accept a pure design role as well.

Fun stuff I added over the years while playing with it:

Multiplayer with settings sharing. Lots of brush shape/timing settings, mirroring. Make colliders and import / create masks. Right click is replay. Lots of Simulation controls, Typography tools. A powerful hotkey system to give a control over everything. Kaleidoscopic mirroring.

If anyone else really loved that lovely GLSL fluid sim that's been posted here a bunch, I'm working on a beefed up version of that same shader: https://swirltogether.com/

I've added some playful collaborative parts, and I'm doing a playtest of it over the next few weeks before releasing it as a demo on steam at Next Fest.

Truly brave feat of public service getting those criminals off the street.

I mean he has the same bosses right?

MMT is just a description of the monetary reality we're in. If everything changed, the new reality would be MMT.

Hi Michael, the range of unique interactions and little pieces of visual feedback for users in your demos is super impressive, and as a designer, I hope you don't mind if I shoot my shot.

I'm ending a MIT xPro course on designing AI products in about a week, and I've been looking for places to put all my learnings to work, might your team have some room for a coding/prototyping UX developer/designer who has spent a lot of time thinking about AI-oriented HCI?

I think in 8 weeks of a co-op / or even part time basis, I could build out a ton of ideas you haven't gotten around to defining yet, but want to get a feel for the UX of. I'd love to hear from you (my email in in my profile).

While I do so love a good use of the word "wanker", this seems overly cynical to me, many systems which are tech islands succeed by growing an ecosystem, the console wars come to mind. Or maybe I'm misunderstanding you, certainly open to hearing more about your perspective Can you expand?

Its a typo, supposed to be "four word engineer". Any more than four and you're fired.

Hi there, I'm Gabriel. I was a UX dev who moved to the design side to make a bigger impact on user experience. I'm as comfortable working up prototypes in Figma as I am in Codepen.

To upskill for the upcoming Human-AI design reality, I'm currently enrolled at MIT in a program called "Designing and Building AI Products and Services", and would be open to co-op or part time roles during the class (ends early Feb), although full-time is preferred.

Here's a little fun project I made that builds on Pavel Dobryakov's awesome GLSL shaders. https://codepen.io/VizDevBoston/full/ExqMVZE

When you mentioned Soundslice I recognized your name :) Your recording of Django's Tiger is what got me into Jazz. Small world!

Hi there, I'm a New England based UX Designer and developer. I'm entering an MIT professional development program in designing and building AI products and services, so if there are any AI-centric roles with part-time or co-op opportunities, that can build into fulltime roles, I'd love to connect.

I'm a former UX dev who wanted to make a bigger impact on the product side, before the ball was already set into motion, so I can as easily whip up a prototype of a user flow in Figma, as a component interaction in Codepen.

I could do a pure UX design/research, or a pure UI development role, if a company would see a path forward to a more hybrid role over time. Above all else I enjoy contributing and making an impact.

I've done some neat stuff with GLSL interactions here: https://codepen.io/VizDevBoston

Also, I make art sometimes, some of it is here: https://codepen.io/gabrielmtn

So cool!

Hi there, I'm Gabriel, a former UX dev who wanted to make a bigger impact on the product side, before the ball was already set into motion. I'm happier here! Taking on UX design with development chops is a blast, as it lets me control the granularity of the UX I want to describe depending on the situation, not to mention getting to collaborate with a lot of interesting folks.

change some config files to prevent attempt limit lockout then brute force?

This is the kind of bright and focused clarifying question that will help OP get their answer, well done.

I came back specifically for the comment to find it flagged.

Nothing quite like ending with “smart move morons” to reinforce how one’s perspective is a thoughtful critical analysis, and not reactionary culture war buffoonery at all.

it's a shocking accusation, truly.

I don't people will be either brotha, I don't people will be <3

Do please divulge, I'm at my heaviest, but have started jogging backwards to try to limit the damage as I get used to it again. What're your tips?

I find monetary alarmism so lazy and yet I always feel compelled to comment.

I’ve never heard a compelling argument to explain just how a monetary system in which all monetized debt becomes privately held wealth, can be framed as debt being a “scary, unsustainable thing” as if it’s household debt. At least this article frames it as a relationship with investors, but it still doesn’t cut to the meat of the issue, to me at least.

Writing debt in an out of existence seems way more conceptually scary than it is dangerous in reality, at least for an economy where households spend on average about 5,000 dollars a month.

It seems a much more important topic is monetary hegemony, than some certain debt to GDP ratio, but I never seem to see those concepts mentioned.

Wouldn't be gaming without a healthy dose of gatekeeping ;)

To me, it seems there are two sides to your point, one about trust, and the other about dollar value in context to growing federal debt. As for the trust, I think part of where things go beyond trust comes from a sort of self-reinforcing economic strength.

When the average monthly expenses for an American household add up to about $5,500, certain industries (like transportation (16.8 percent of those expenses), or food (12.8 percent) will always view the American economy as a leading market to operate in. At a macro level, it would seem that many businesses making this similar judgement call would create a dynamic that goes beyond trust.

Regarding the buying power of pensions point, I believe there are cost of living adjustment laws for buying power which require Army or Social Security pensions to react to USD's changing buying power over time.

It's interesting to me how visceral of a reaction the ideas that underpin this article create in so many different individuals' comments I've read in threads like this, despite economics and monetary policy typically being so boring.

One of the fascinating threads to pull within it is the origin of debt and credit creation. It raises some fun questions (some of which are just more random offshoots related to my interests than monetary policy or economic theory):

1) Did all private wealth held in USD originate as monetized federal debt at one point?

2) If banking systems didn't have access to fraction reserve systems, would they be effective tools for debt/wealth creation?

3) Is debt creation the same was wealth creation? How can labor and commodities even be effectively monetized without fluid systems of debt creation?

4) If the lowly game of poker was once used as way to build ad-hoc credit and wealth, before more sophisticated financial systems were more commonplace, how rigidly should we look at debt creation at all, federal or otherwise? Perhaps more gamified and ad-hoc systems would create a higher baseline of wealth globally? [1]

So many interesting questions.

I could see

on the center element being effective

Reducing the max character length per line would yield a huge readability improvement :) Interesting tool!

I just assumed that was the case, it made using it a lot funnier, and more interesting to poke and prod.
