Wow those are beautiful in their pedantry.

The Minsky Moment

The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists.

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Do you say "Oida" when you check your family's facebook pages?

I've seen that Blender is on Steam and installed it (it's free, after all).

I looked around for tutorials and have settled on Blender Guru's for now. He has a detailed tutorial that goes from basic to more advanced stuff:

I've finished the first part which leaves me with a basic donut. The next chapters add textures, sprinkles, a cup of coffee etc. Rather enjoying this (I've always been interested in 3D modeling, but never made much of an effort to really get into it). I was stumped a few times, but usually there's comments from people who ran into similar issues and explain how to fix them in the comments.

The result so far. Basic, but quite happy with the result so far. :)

Finished part 2 of the tutorial. I think my donut is a bit undercooked. :D

I never got the appeal of sprinkles. Why ruin a sweet dessert by adding a gritty texture?
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Me neither.  What's the point of adding something that makes your teeth hurt when biting into it?

Finished part 3 of the tutorial. In which I cursed a lot trying to wrap my head around the interface.  :lol:
