This is my blog. It may have something for you.
Blender Conference 2016
BConf 2016 was awesome, as ever. This is just a blog post to share the slides of my workshop “ Develop add-ons like a pro”.
I'm a PhD & work at Blender!
Yesterday I obtained my PhD degree in Computer Science at the Universiteit Utrecht, on the subject of the simulation of dense crowds. Of course my thesis Dense Crowds of Virtual Humans is available online!
Python-RSA 3.4 released
Python-RSA 3.4 has been released! This is the first release from GitHub, and contains a lot of improvements by myself, Michael Manganiello, and Filippo Valsorda, including the solution for a side-channel vulnerability.
My name in the modern world
My last name is a technical hurdle. At least, for many people. In this high-tech, modern, globalized society, one would expect that a simple accented character shouldn’t be an issue. After all, even a small child can write Stüvel correctly with a stick in the mud.
New website & Python-RSA 3.3
You won’t notice it, but you’re now on my new website. The look is still the same, but under the hood a lot has changed. This includes the blog being fixed again, so that I can actually write new posts!
Python FlickrAPI 2.0 released
Python FlickrAPI library version 2.0 has been released, and can be downloaded from the Python Package Index with more info at my FlickrAPI page.
The major change is that the “new” OAuth-based authentication is used.
Panoramas: two terraces
UPDATE 2019: The panoramas are currently broken, I’ll get around to fix it some time in the future.
I just put two new 360/180 degree panoramas online, of places very well suited for an exquisite dinner.
Moving from pwsafe to KeePass
My favourite password management tool, pwsafe, is getting old. It’s no longer part of Ubuntu and I’ve had to compile it myself for quite a while now. It’s also not supported on Android, and shows other signs of aging.
Python FlickrAPI 1.4.4 released
Python FlickrAPI library version 1.4.4 has been released, and can be downloaded from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/flickrapi with more info at https://stuvel.eu/flickrapi
The changes are:
Changed default API URL to use HTTPS (Joseph Hui).
Reloading your code in Blender
UPDATE 2019: Things are considerably simpler. Just press F8 in Blender 2.79 or older, or press F3 and search for ‘Reload Scripts’ in recent Blenders.
Blender lets you script more or less everything.
