  • No, it's adjacent to 3D Paint. I never really liked 3D Paint actually.

    For parametric modelling, that's super easy and you can get into it pretty quickly, but organic modelling is a whole different story and is what takes the hundreds of hours.

    While I've messed around in Maya and 3DS Max, its so much more difficult than parametric and Modifying high poly models requires tons of ram and a beefy PC. I spent a month trying to bake a bump map onto a model so that I could 3D print it and 90% of the time the applications crashed, Maya, 3DS and Blender all crashed when trying to do it, and none of them could do it right either. I pretty much gave up on that.

  • May not be a popular opinion, but if you just want to fix shit like that, you can use Microsoft 3D Builder, it's super simple and pretty powerful.

    Modifying existing meshes is difficult, especially more complex ones, I find that this makes it much easier to fix dumb shit or make simple modifications.

  • It's doing something different, I was using to mount an AWS FSx for ZFS share on a beefy machine (1.2GB/s network throughput) and was getting less than 50MB/s throughput using docker to mount it, but getting the full 1.2GB/s when mounted outside and mapped to a volume in the container.

  • Yeah, sure, but with like 2k employees, they will only look if there are issues with me. Having worked in the IT industry for a long time, I've only once or twice had to dig into shit like that for HR and it was only when the person did something bad.

  • Same could be said about 90% of things humans do.

    While I agree, we don't do enough, can you say your job directly impacts the environment for the positive? If not, then you, like me, like them, are part of the problem.
