Could you add the date of publication to the top of the page on each blog post? (Or year+month.) Looks like they’re there in the blog list, but not on the individual posts? Would help understand the context on posts that describe tech that

Wall clock speed does not correlate linear to power consumption (in the general case). To oversimplify, consider decoding singlethreaded on one core versus multithreaded on 8 or 20 cores. In some special cases multiplying runtime might be e

Like sibling comment mentioned, Fusion. Was using it to deliver advertising video VFX work on the daily for a couple of years, it's great. We were a mixed group of After Effects and Fusion (and many more apps) users and I would say gen

Sounds kinda like the chatbot becomes a fuzzy search interface, difference is the presentation. Regardless, definitely better than picking from 1000 product list. I think I would like a natural language (type-in) date picker with a good pre

Hi Colin. A few ways to go about it, requires getting some initial tedium done to get started. I would recommend the course https://ppc.cs.aalto.fi/ as a resource, goes through specifics of implementing an example data-crun

To nitpick a bit: SVGs don’t scale like bitmaps. An SVG at 800% zoom is radically different than a bitmap at 800%.

Hi lankinen, maybe try some big AR subreddits like /r/augmentedreality, /r/AR_MR_XR or /r/virtuality. Could also google for some slack or discord channels. I don’t necessarily frequent specific communities too

Thanks for sharing, hadn’t considered something like this, very interesting to see! Would be cool if the object-matching tech (this[1] + more machine learning?) in ARKit was advanced enough that it could recognize a car seat or dashboard an

Seems logical that it would happen at some point. I don’t think RealityKit covers enough of the semi-common use cases in its current state that they could deprecate SceneKit just yet. But it’s on the horizon definitely.

Agree. One of the most interesting AR games I’ve tried was Kings of Pool same-space multiplayer. So you set up a pool table (=billiard?) and walk around the room around the same table. Worked quite well, the game (AR & network) could ke

For messing around, Apprentice version is free and can do pretty much anything the full version (FX) can, except render in insane resolution. Also, Indie version is cheap (~$200/year).
