Back in my day, "nerd" meant actually being an intellectual. You know, reading books, doing math, being interested in physics, etc. How did consuming comic book slop become false s…

I checked the date but no.

It doesn't work because politicians are not allowed to admit failure. A politician who admits that they tried something, no matter how small, and it didn't work, is fish food. This…

Tidal should simply ban AI generated music from upload if they are not willing to pay uploaders should the music become popular. Under these rules an AI generated country and weste…

The "Appreciate it" / "cool carry on" Is exactly the sort of confusing non choice options cookie banners give. Along the lines of "Accept all" / "more information" Then I'll retrac…

Last weekend a group of friends and I sat by the lake. One had a guitar, and we were all singing off-key to old classics and dancing to salsa and reggaeton. We were doing it togeth…

Why do people keep writing this drivel. Obviously written by an LLM itself. What they are describing and which doesn't work is one shotting a fix. Almost or probably no human can o…

The irony of a tool designed to enforce usability and discoverability that which itself is unusable and undiscoverable.

In Austria I'm always in the situation that shops and restaurants are unhappy that I pay by card because they claim that even a direct debit card cost them some large percentage th…

Anybody remember "wobbly windows"? It never sticks.

Stopped reading at. > computers handle math just fine with a finite allowance of digits. Go try and write yourself a robust algorithm to do booleans on polygons or calculate a voro…

Decentralized version control only works if there is some way to find and access those distributed repositories. For many reasons and no matter the tech there is always a drift tow…

You got it the wrong way round. It's more akin to. 1. Training data is the source. 2. Training is compilation/compression. 3. Weights are the compiled source akin to optimized asse…

What is this YOLO-c++ compiler that is referenced in the article? Google searches turn up nothing and chatgpt seems not to know it either.

You are right but I also kind of did mean it that way. I believe that Parasolid is at heart of Onshape, the true kernel. Then on top of that is a compatibility layer describing the…

The fun thing is that onshape itself has a very thin kernel. Most of what you see as built in features are actually featurescript based. Onshape provides the source code for their …

These types of CAD scripting tools are great but always try to position themselves as an “alternative” to GUI-driven CAD, whereas in reality they are complementary. OnShape got it …
