Why exactly would you collect NFTs when you can collect #ptpx postcards? 🤔

#penplotter

My pet peeve is when a SaaS product makes me delete a whole resource tree manually before I can delete a top-level resource. DELETE CASCADE, cowards.
ok, better late than never but finally got the #ptpx postcards mailed out. On the back I've included a github link for a How To Read for the data visualization on the plot. Will post link in a few weeks once postcards have a chance to travel. Huge thanks to @paulgb for the motivation and to @abey79 for vpype/vsketch.
@andymakes check out the animated version of my #ptpx card! https://v.st/ptpx

Here is what came last week for #ptpx!

Thanks @artplots, @alessbell, @pentronik, and @GrothmannTobias (bird)!

#penplotter

The first cards from #ptpx have arrived from @median, @depesch, @TomDuff

For this year #ptpx I picked dinosaurs for my theme (why not!) 🦕

Here are the four different postcards made in #Blender that I've mailed already 📬 #generative

@HeNeArXn the issue with 1D is that we usually visualize it with time as a spatial x axis, rather than, actual time, and it superficially looks like a 2D space object with a physical slope, when slope is just an artifact of that particular representation

I think part of why derivatives are hard to understand the first time you learn about them, is because they're introduced in 1D instead of 2D

the derivative is just the velocity of any given function!

to be more precise, given a function f(t):

f(t) = position at time t
f'(t) = velocity at time t
f''(t) = acceleration at time t
f'''(t) = jerk/jolt at time t

This visual tour through spline math is a great watch, especially for #penplotter folks.
