I learnt that I can't lift my right eyebrow by itself... 😂

Who are the best teachers in tech right now? Meaning they not only produce great content, but really, genuinely care about the community they're empowering with their content?
I think of people like @eveporcello, @sarah_edo, @wesbos, @ireaderinokun, & @holtbt.
Who inspires you?

Success: I've managed to combine Node.js, headless-gl, canvas-sketch and tiled rendering to export HUGE prints from a WebGL & glslify artwork.
For example, A0 size is 33.1 x 46.8 inches.
Browser for rapid iteration, Node.js + headless GL for large export.
