While lacking in lots of built-in UI widgets, I use Cinder like a UI library. https://libcinder.org/ Perhaps "graphics library" would be a better descriptor and explains why I didn't find it on the list. B

I suppose a bit more context would be explanatory. My real interest is not the free-space performance of the antenna, but the eventual installed performance. In the video describing the setup he says "I talked with a couple of engine

Can anyone simulate this light bulb setup in HFSS or another antenna simulation software? I'm always on the lookout for comparisons on weird cases like this for the simulation code I've written. If I can find material property d

I'm worried based on some of the comments that people might be reading only the Impartial view and not also the Left-bias and Right-bias versions of the same story. I'd strongly suggest reading all three versions of a story befor

That's one big thing I was worried about. Also, "We included only races with an average number of finishers greater than 2,000 (for all four distances)" could be a major confounding factor. What if many "competitive&qu

Yes to lossy dielectrics. The caveat being that right now we only have support for homogeneous materials - we have some thoughts on how to bring our methods to continuously varying materials, but that's still a research topic. We star

What's your take on model accuracy? I ask because my startup has developed a high-order accurate CEM solver (think MoM full-wave type solvers but every time you double the mesh density you get a 100x accuracy improvement thanks to a b

We should be talking about "consistency" being the fundamental idea, not causality. I think "retrocausality" is an especially distracting choice of words. I find the clearest way to think about this is in terms of Feynm

That's not really the right reasoning to use here. The number of cell divisions isn't 50 vs. 54, it's more like 2^50 vs. 2^54. At some point the animal will exit the growth phase and reach a stable cell count and an elephant
