If you have a tablet and some artistic background, these are all definitely doable. Doing those with a mouse would be a lot harder.

I like to draw with a mouse. Just takes practice, like anything.

What if your mouse was shaped like a pen?

My hot dog with a smiley face got a 64%, I'm sorry. Semi relevant Silicon Valley clip (maybe nsfw, language) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ACmydtFDTGs

Well what's the difference between a lamprey and an hot dog?

It's mostly down to the casing.

I did this on a trip to Japan but can't remember for the life of me where. Some museum. My wife and I drew fishes and then they were uploaded and we went to a room and watched them swim across walls/ceilings. Really cool experience

The Singapore ArtScience museum has this concept. Templated sea animal colour in pages that a guide vetted before scanning and then your fish appears on the walls of the dark room in a sea life picture swimming with all the other fish. It was pretty cool. A variation in the other room was the same deal but with flying machines, but this time they gave you a remote control that controlled specifically your creation as it flew around on the landscape projected onto the walls.

“An h*” is regional. Had a professor who said “an historic…” all the time, never stopped noticing it, though.

I wonder if it's resilient against swastikas made of penises.

That was the Slack logo redesign.

My hot take is that the Slack logo is an Alphabet-product logo. The colors aren't quite right, but it's red/yellow/green/blue like an Alphabet logo. It would fit right into the lineup. It's particularly similar to the (obsolete) Google Podcasts and Google Photos logos.

My pet theory (that I don't sincerely believe) is that this was deliberate to help smooth a hypothetical acquisition by Alphabet, before they were bought by Salesforce.

The website is great! > I built a basic CNN trained against penises After seeing it in action, my second thought (first was just watching my fish) was that I was amazed at the good behavior of the users because I would have expected a lot of penises floating around. Now I understand. Nicely done!

Actually most people aren't trying to submit bad fish! I was surprised to, it's really like 95/5 good to bad submissions. People seem to follow the rules on average :)

When I launched Twiddla, it was so common that we joked about adding them to the shape tool.

I think it’s just human nature that that’s the first thing you try to draw on any online whiteboard.
