i know it's a huge cliché to say this, but being in korea and japan for a month gliding around on public transit and then coming back and almost immediately needing to travel for 2 hours in LA car traffic for industry events is freakin annoying!!!!
An excerpt from an interview with the director of The Graduate, Mike Nichols. "I interviewed hundreds, maybe thousands of men", Nichols admitted of the casting process per Vanity Fair, before his conversation with Redford turned out to be a short one. "I said, 'You can't play it. You can never play a loser'. And Redford said, 'What do you mean? Of course I can play a loser'. And I said, 'OK, have you ever struck out with a girl'. And he said, 'What do you mean?' And he wasn't joking."
My favourite Robert Redford story is the one about why he got rejected for the lead role in The Graduate. RIP to a real one.

My strategy after getting humbled by The Black Gaol Knight in the Elden Ring DLC!
I was like, "I'll be back for you!"

Screenshot of the Android Studio debug panel showing a section titled "Recomposition State" with various in-scope values having differing state describing whether they have been "Changed" or are "Static".
I need to thank and HUG the folks who made the "Recomposition State" in Android Studio. Not only did it save me from going insane wondering why my custom layout was recomposing, but legit, I feel SMARTER having connected dots on modifiers, data classes, and function type properties. I am so pumped.
I also do game assets #pixelart #gamedev #art
A star-filled sky over the coast. On the right, a comet pointed down. On the left the Milky Way. In between, Venus whose reflection can be seen in the water. The remnants of sunset are on the horizon.
Got the comet, Milky Way, and Venus out at the coast. 📷
