Seems like a miscalculation on their end. You'd think they'd check around before throwing $3M away.

I don't know about you, but don't people use encryption to retain privacy? And are people still free to manage their personal information? Doesn't a duress PIN present that information in its intended form? I'm confused.

Not saying insurance saves anything. Corporations go after each other all the time; nothing new there. What is new are the opportunities to extract provided by uncontrolled LLM fuckery and an unsuspecting c-suite that believes they're

There's plenty of evidence that LLMs lie, cheat, and steal. Corporations are known for having all of the benefits of personhood with none of the responsibility. As more people are harmed through interactions with these non-human entiti

In Richard Murphy's review of ‘The Great ADHD myth?’ he states that Channel 4 should hang its head in shame. [1] tl;dr: "[Pemberton] failed to mention that he specialises in geriatric care." "No evidence was presented fr

Rhino + Grasshopper is the gold standard for all the curvy geometry in anything resembling Zaha Hadid’s work. It is also parametric. There’s even a plug-in to use it inside Revit. Solidworks is great for designing the chassis, but the body

I haven’t fully tested it, but just wanted to say nice job! It even looks decent on my handset, which isn’t trivial.

You’d think they’d have the green data center thing down already, but that ain’t going to happen when politicians still boast “clean coal” and moan on about wind farms. It takes real leadership and economic force to transition towards a gre

I pinpoint the start of “safetyism” with the kidnapping, rape, and murder of Polly Klaas in Petaluma, California in 1993. Overnight, nobody let their kids outside unattended. It was crazy that nobody talked about it. Terms like “helicopter

This post feels misleading or possibly just nostalgic. The books referenced still exist because the people creating the technology are still writing them. They're also creating video and attending conferences (virtual or otherwise). Th

MAYA has extensive NURBS tools, which means it can import and export CAD data natively. While Blender does support basic NURBS geometry, it lacks tooling to fully support it. If the idea is to support Blender for use with “Digital Twins” or

If this is the case, they’ll want to improve the NURBS support within Blender. You can get some amazing results with subd, but digital twins require accuracy and you get that with NURBS geometry. Fortunately, Blender supports it already, it

You can even spend time and money to acquire a patent and it still doesn’t guarantee profit. It’s called the Miura-ori even though it was patented decades earlier. In this case, the patent acts as a record emphasizing that it’s all been don
