The Three.js Blender exporter has been broken for at least the last 10 releases of Three.js. It's had at least 20 individual authors and contributors, most of whom have left the project never to return. Nevertheless, I have successfully imported animated (both with rigging and morph target) meshes into Three.js. Here's all the things I've encountered which you need to know about:

• The exporter flips all vertices, faces, etc in the mesh you export. There used to be a "Flip Y/Z" option in the exporter, but it was removed when the exporter was rewritten. Since then speculation is the Blender API changed, or some other change after this one mangled the faces on export. For now we're stuck with it until we track it down.
• mrdoob/three.js#8723 Invalid json is exported for all files with animations, so you have to delete a key manually from the json
• mrdoob/three.js#8710 morph target exporting doesn't work with "a

What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn

Disclaimer: This piece is written anonymously. The names of a few particular companies are mentioned, but as common examples only.

This is a short write-up on things that I wish I'd known and considered before joining a private company (aka startup, aka unicorn in some cases). I'm not trying to make the case that you should never join a private company, but the power imbalance between founder and employee is extreme, and that potential candidates would

How to add an image to a gist

1. Create a gist if you haven't already.
2. Clone your gist:

   # make sure to replace `<hash>` with your gist's hash
   git clone https://gist.github.com/<hash>.git # with https
   git clone [email protected]:<hash>.git     # or with ssh

We are processing items in bulk and want to have multiple jobs running for them without double sending emails or the like. We can't use offset without potentially having that problem so we are considering splitting UUID ranges.

It should work like:

• Count total amount of items present
• Calculate how many batches we'll need for items present
• Divide UUID range (i.e. 0000... to FFFF...) into potential values
  • For 2 batches, this would be (0000... - 7777...F and 8888... - FFFF...)
• Kick off jobs with these given ranges so they can process in parallel without potential collision
