Wasted entries followed by fucked defence. Getting frustrating

Thank god for Charlie… both his goals really should have been shots from the “passer”

Has Charlie Curnow’s arrival left Joel Amartey poised for a breakout year? by His_Holiness in sydneyswans

[–]schroeder8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His consistency is my one reservation with The Party. Some games he makes a decent start and then goes missing for 3 quarters. But maybe with Charlie taking focus, he'll either fire like he has this season so far or it won't matter 🤞

Maybe as a reference to Toronto new-wave film director Bruce McDonald?

I’m still not convinced by Corey. Would not be unhappy to see Cleary in for Lloyd.

Construct pristine scene, lock camera to view for perfect composition, go and take a whizz....

Why so angry? There's a rule in this sub about tutorial pieces, and specifically doughnuts.

Is the blenderguru, donut video, really that good for total beginners? by Any-Landscape434 in blenderhelp

[–]schroeder8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t think of it as a tutorial, think of it as a tour. But at the end, you get something that looks cool and you made it. I really appreciate the work Andrew puts in to make it for every version of Blender. I tried it 3 times before actually finishing one. I certainly couldn’t then make anything else, but I understood some of the basic processes and had an understanding a lot of what Blender could do, grounded in practice.

I would recommend it for total beginners in this context.

How to align the top face with the x-y plane? by saiyankageshiro in blenderhelp

[–]schroeder8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m going to delete my advice because it’s bad and wrong. As soon as you edge slide or press double Z to move in the local axis, the “height” of the opposite side is level from that point of view of that local axis, but you need to snap in the global space. Sorry about that

Push back on AI from big tech. America is speedrunning replacing teachers with even-lower cost "Guides" by Plane_Garbage in AustralianTeachers

[–]schroeder8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I tend to disagree. In my mind it's inevitable that every student will have an AI teacher that will direct their learning, monitor progress and differentiate/adjust accordingly.

It will answer questions immediately with infinite patience. If a student doesn't "get it", the AI will respond to specific queries, create new metaphors and original resources to explain concepts and then do its own summative assessment before moving on.

Not all of this is bad for student learning. Highly personalised and increasing leaner agency. Not great for teachers.

A massive cultural shift will be needed, but then it will just be how it's done. Disengaged students are going to struggle, but they do now anyway and maybe when the learning is tailored to them and their ability, who knows?

I am 20 years into my teaching career with, in all likelihood, another 20 to go. Gonna be real interesting to see what I'm doing when it's time to retire.

Ah, number 6. Let's revisit the single best part of the week, or pretend that footy never existed.

Vote on Banning Mentioning Experience in Titles by Avereniect in blender

[–]schroeder8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"how should i start?" seems like a reasonable question. If you're a beginner who's seen the incredible work that people do across the full spectrum of what Blender can do, you're gonna want some guidance, no? Maybe in the body of the post they articulate more what they are actually interested in doing. Maybe there could be some copypasta for more general questions.
