>Obviously not dispositive You're too kind. The article is sloppily generated and is basically unchecked fiction presented as fact. It gives a few links and none of them support wh…

Yup, the old brap n' snap. Everyone who swims around whales knows and fears this.

I also spent a while looking for non-video resources recently. This one is a couple of versions behind but I don't think it's outdated: https://studio.blender.org/training/blender-…

Interesting, I've planned similar shots before and used different tools that serve a similar purpose. The Photographer’s Ephemeris has nice visualizations: https://photoephemeris.c…

Oddly enough, I've seen a similar injury on a dolphin before. Well, the head was missing, but the cutoff point could be described as "corkscrew". None of us had a good idea of the …

Fair point, my (and many people's) point of view is very virtual instrument centric. I'd still say that better impulses would improve the tool for the potential luthier application…

In this area of research, there's this classic trap that many fall into (including myself, many times). You focus on modeling things like the vibrating string, the resonant body, e…

The music all by itself is not particularly enjoyable here. What's great is the concept, execution, and the way data from an unlikely source is directly audible in the music. What …

Generative art inspired by Arabic art happens to be a rabbit hole I went down last year and still have my notes on. Research on the topic seems to have waxed and waned sufficiently…

They are not shy about publishing LRO data. It looks like this (one for each LRO camera, narrow angle then wide angle): https://data.lroc.im-ldi.com/lroc/view_lroc/LRO-L-LROC-2-EDR…

The parts where it exits fullscreen and starts messing around with separate windows is really well done. In a way it's playing with the limits of what defines a demo (ie. the user'…

>they haven’t adjusted course to go round the far side of the moon yet They did, 3 days ago! Maybe this is being pedantic (?) but the trans-lunar injection burn they did on April 2…

I could ask you the same question.

Though since we can't really see 3D, we could never have that "one circle zooms in" effect. Well, the 3D structure just needs to be sufficiently "holey" for the effect to become ap…

This kind of technique can be used in 3D space as well! The analysis here represents Escher's techniques as conformal maps in the complex plane. Conformal maps are also possible, t…

Now that is the coolest fridge I've ever seen. Found a video of it in action (yes, featuring the same dad joke all over the comments but that is not stopping me): https://youtu.be/…

The plugin in that demo isn't by Jeskola, it's by HD (Haldreamer) who I believe is a Russian audio developer who made some nice Buzz plugins in the early 2000's. Source: I have it …

If what you want is the sounds of nature around the world, I can't recommend Gordon Hampton's work enough!

Come on, HN, you can't let this information stay under the front page for 13 hours and everyone's like "ah yes of course". Please don't register the mousemove event handler on wind…

For some context, the author later became the language consultant for Rings of Power, therefore having to fill a very similar role to David Salo, whose work gets much critique in t…

I love this and will make it my motto. Scale yourself 100x every 3 years, or you're too slow. If I manage to keep it up roughly 11 years I will finally achieve planet scale.

OK, I sent the email myself. You don't have to do it. Just once, not 5 times per day. Agree about community awareness, but I think emailing the mods is more effective than respondi…
