Tinker Tuesday for May 12th, 2026

This thread is for anyone working on personal projects to share their progress, and hold themselves somewhat accountable to a group of peers.

Post your project, your progress from last week, and what you hope to accomplish this week.

If you want to be pinged with a reminder asking about your project, let me know, and I'll harass you each week until you cancel the service.

Yeah, it does take a fair bit of time, requiring basically three full close readings. The first to familiarize myself with the text (or re-familiarize, if it's been a while), the second to assign all the initial metadata to be used for image generating, and the third (after the image generating) to do a visual edit pass. Plus some smaller steps in-between.

Would that I could abridge the text to cut out tricky passages, or even just tweak certain annoying visual-defying wordings, it would make things a lot easier. But I think I share your feelings that, at that point, it would no longer be the original book or prose.
