This brings back memories. Buzz is how I got my start. And I've been producing electronic music as a hobbyist ever since.

(Kidding OFC. But I _would_ watch a 1 hour video essay on the history of alternative LOD systems.)

Anyone else remember the game Messiah? I'm probably wrong, but it still feels to me like that was a much earlier version of "nanite"/dynamic LOD building. No pre-built LODs, but automatically changed the number of polygo

Less "unfair" IMHO, and more apples-vs-oranges. FWIW, the javascript side of Rails is historically the least settled-upon part of the framework. I'm curious how many current Rails projects use React as an alternative over the

Hard disagree. "More discussions once more opinionated developers join" is universally true regardless of which frameworks/philosophies you start with. The point of convention being more important than configuration is that i

This is my #1 complaint with our new Model Y. The "Auto" setting is completely worthless. It almost never turns on when it's raining. When it does turn on, it's either too fast or too slow. It'll turn on randomly wh

I can't wait to try this out. I have a plugin installed now but table editing is still clunky. Decent first-party support of md tables is huge (for me) if true.

There are a number of Obsidian plugins that will automatically convert your notes into an actual website. I don't use any but I know they exist. (I don't use them _yet_, I have a future plan to completely remake my website and Obs

The article addresses this. > Just one year ago, Tim Cook had this to say about RCS: "I don't hear our users asking that we put a lot of energy in on that at this point. […] Buy your mom an iPhone.” > Long story short, I wil

Personal experience: Bun has been a flawless drop-in replacement for both NodeJS and npm/yarn since I started using it around v0.4. Not only have I had zero issues running it, but it's been WAY faster. No benchmarks, but very noti

I wasn't familiar with BQN. Clicked through, reminded me of APL. "OH", I thought, "I see how you came up with the name." There was a (disproven) urban legend about Arthur C. Clarke's 2001, where "HAL"

I wonder if this was an inspiration to the "Devs" miniseries. Won't say more about it for fear of ruining it. Amazing show.

If anyone else is interested in learning it, I'm getting back into it via Duolingo and that's working well for me so far.

I keep looking at Eames replicas, wondering if that's an acceptable trade-off in quality. I also REALLY want an Eames. And I can afford a replica. (Not all knockoffs are of dubious quality/legitimacy. I hear the people at Iconic C

The understanding of context here is maybe the most "hidden" feature, but the most impressive to me, because it's something that's still not commonplace in today's technology. For example. I have an Ecobee thermosta

"Oh no, the consequences of my own actions!" It's stunning to watch videos of Britons confused about why they've lost certain privileges, only a short while after voting to leave the place that gave them those privilege

I ended up getting a Dirtywave M8, but the Deluge was a VERY close second. If I ever get tired of the M8, I still have my eye on a Deluge.

Didn't know what to ask. I asked where my wife was (she's in the next room). The board responded with the name of the town we're living in. (State College) Uh... there's no way this thing knows our location, does it?

Huge fan of WLED here. - I wanted a semi-permanent lighting fixture for Christmas, but something that would work for other holidays as well. I took a bunch of bullet-style leds and inserted them into holes I drilled on a piece of material t

I've been looking for a summary like this for years. I'm quite comfortable with IPv4, but haven't understood IPv6 well enough to start using it in my home network. Thanks for sharing, going to read this over a few times to ma

Each of your two eyes only sees a 2d image, and your brain combining this information is what gives you depth. I'd say it's holographic in that each eye receives different information and you perceive depth when looking into it. I

Muse Group could have taken a lesson from this with their (attempted?) addition of telemetry to Audacity. If the community feels a sense of ownership of the data that's being collected from said community, you'll probably receive

I used to use Dropbox as well, but it started freaking out when I had folders with over 500,000 files in them. I started writing scripts to zip up folders first, moved some things off Dropbox, but it would just take up several CPU cores whe

I love Syncthing. I've found some unconventional uses for it in syncing program settings. My fonts folder is now synced between my Mac, Windows and Linux computers and that works surprisingly well. My projects folder does a one-way arc

Yeah, came here expecting to hear about an update from Inkle Studios. (I checked them out anyway since Heaven’s Vault is one of the most kind-blowing games I’ve ever played, and they do have a new game out! Their ink language is worth a loo

I loved this answer, and I struggle the same way. When you said > why don't companies invest in coaching for their expensive engineers? This is what makes a great manager, on the work side of things. Someone who sees the potential i
