Bryan has been working on this forever! Truly a labor of love. Neat to see it pop up here. He also does illustrations of homes around San Francisco (amongst other things), which I …

Aerospace looks neat - might have to give it a try. However, honestly, 99% of my multitasking pain on MacOS comes from the un-removable ~300ms animation delay when switching spaces…

Came here hoping someone would mention those absolutely cursed cameras - the ones with the pre-canned video of a guy in a back office "monitoring" the feeds? Gets to me the worst w…

Has nobody learned anything from the Humane saga? I don't get it - if you have something so revolutionary and so great, just release it and let it speak for itself!

While this all is super cool, and I don't want to downplay TFAs efforts - I'm kind of at my wit's end here. You've gotten me at a bad time. I use a computer every day to do electri…

Concepts is nice. Subscription model IIRC but I’ve been happy with it. Nice options for different papers, can cut and paste/transform objects. Has multiple layers.

> ...his speech, which was attended by the CEOs of dozens of the world's largest automakers... I don't recall Biden reading off a price sheet for a single corporation. Seems a bit …

Location: SF Bay Area Remote: Yes Willing to relocate: No Technologies: Embedded systems design Consumer product prototyping and production Bespoke art/installation design and smal…

It pains me deeply that they used Autodesk Fusion in one of the app screenshots. It is by far the worst piece of software I use on Mac OS. Wish the nano-texture display was availab…

Your app is stunning! Love the real-time map! I'm working on some hardware in this space (I've been up to my eyeballs in GTFS lately) and I can tell just how much went into parsing…

Plugging my own project here [1] for SF's Muni to say I 100% agree with you - the phone is a trap! There's something so charming about having a thing you know you can look at anyti…

Great writeup! You show things are difficult to debug even when you have a board where all of your signals of interest are easily accessible. It's a bad week when you have a bug th…

Wow! Thanks for this! This is the second time that the EMF file format has come in handy for me. In college I used to export my Matlab plots as EMF so they'd import into my Word do…

I cannot stand the lack of SVG support in Google slides. When I worked on the hardware team there I hated that I had to import my polished vector block diagrams into slides as PNGs…

Sweet! Would love to host this myself and get rid of my Strava subscription. I wrote a Python script that iterates through all of my activities there and downloads the `.gpx` for e…

I love simple light-based data transmission stuff. I've seen it included in things like guitar pedals that have just a few config bits that someone might want to change infrequentl…

That's fair! I'm just not a big trackpad person since I find doing ECAD or MCAD with a trackpad to be not so enjoyable :)

Like others have mentioned, Sumatra is one of a few Windows-only utilities that I routinely miss when on Mac or Linux, primarily due to two simple interactions which I miss every d…

Cool to see this here and people talking about it. I volunteered with the American Chestnut Foundation during my summers in high school. Usually spent a few weeks on the Meadowview…

Before COVID I was going to Endgames almost every week, sometimes 2x a week. Highly recommend. Thunderdome on Wednesdays was also great. It's a "running bracket" competition. Two t…

One of my favorite pastimes during COVID has been browsing the "free" section of the sfbay CL. Some truly weird and confusing things on there.

Can someone help me understand something regarding gift cards as a way to support businesses during this shutdown? Gift cards are basically outstanding liabilities, right? If they'…

I had a similar idea on a flight last week and decided to implement it using Love2d's shader support. It works with Love 0.10.0. Had some fun with it, if you hit "h" while it's run…

Yes. Though they are pretty "hush hush" about the differences between the two classes, in fact, the course numbers are the same, it's just common knowledge that one professor teach…

At Georgia Tech, the labs associated with Physics I and II have a large programming portion. They had us use VPython [1], which is a strange package which includes a version of pyt…
