I remember running Sketchup for the first time. I had zero experience but in less than 20 minutes I was drawing large complicated machinery, tractors, buildings. They made a 3d dra…

And this is why it should be taken away from them. They will make better hardware without it.

sounds like a print button would be the killer feature.

I went to the toilet in a very understaffed kfc and it was so dirty that I will never eat there again. The kitchen cant possibly be any better than the restroom.

I think you can just buy them in japan. I've had this vision where we create a niche in a building for restroom placement by fork lift. For the low end ones the interior can be 3d …

Please elaborate how is this is a scam? I think he has plenty of track record? https://www.youtube.com/@robbraxmantech

We have lots of smooth infrastructure that I never noticed until various foreign experts on the internet expressed how wonderful it is. There is an actual traffic light design I re…

I've had some success converting people by telling them others had convinced them they were stupid. They usually have one or two things they are actually good at, like a domain the…

Reads like Wikipedia. One thing I learn there is that every accusation should be excessively sourced. People who don't do that aren't necessarily lying but they shouldn't be truste…

What people wish is still aiming quite low. These "privileged" netzen who were able to shoot web for free because they had other sources of income could also be accused of knowing …

On the vic 20 and the Commodore 64 we had 4 function keys (f keys)[0] The order was a bit weird and the usability was not optimal. Without pressing shift you had F1 F3 F5 F7 If you…

I can pick up and place objects myself if only I could remember where I put them. You could take video data and have fuzzy identification of objects moving around, then throw away …

The interesting thing in the moment was not the formula necessarily but the idea to start with the interface. If you are dealing with such monstrosity of an application all battles…

I often think a full rewrite is needed. I woke up this morning with an odd thought. User interfaces are hard, they are not many but we have people who are really good at designing …

Twice I chat with someone who worked exclusively with customers no one else wants. One just grinds them down into a normal project, the other transparently charges what is reasonab…

On the other hand, it wouldn't take much doing at~all to modify something that outputs json into something that outputs xml.

The limited supply is what makes the market not work. Whatever people think about migrants we can at least agree that everyone living in an area (town/city/country) all should have…

When it is dark my eyes adjust and I'm able to see significantly better than others. One time, after 10 minutes or so I was able to see the entire park quite well while the signifi…

Imagine how impressive that would be if it's a really large company. The CEO wouldn't have to be very bright, as long as he gets to work with the issue it would be fkn revolutionar…

That is the most convincing building I've ever seen.

I understand. This regrettably happens 0.04% of the time. The average time to resolve it is 5 work days. In 22% of the resolved cases it took one day, 3% took a month, 1.5% is neve…

The customer merely thinks she is having a bad experience. The employee is the one having the bad experience. It's kinda fascinating how people pretend some help desk person hired …

I'm pretty sure we will continue to develop a different voice for appliances like we do when talking to kids or pets only this time it will be overly articulated orders with raised…
