The UX looks amazing. What makes this a 'Logo' design tool? The intro video, and many of the examples appear to be artwork, not really logos. Is the output a vector image (a definitive prerequisite for logos)?

I have been a paying Kagi customer for the past year and could not be happier. It is a small sliver of sanity showing what the internet could be without the cancer of ad driven anti patterns.

Always fun when you go to upvote an answer you found useful, only to be told you can’t upvote your own answer… definitely a pensive moment!

There might not be any diodes required if the driver uses a very high frequency DC chopper, the smoothing could be purely reactance + momentum.

I found that funny from the perspective of it invalidating the claim that the bridge was disused. It’s like a Yogi Berra adage.

I live this life too - my La Pavoni has been going strong for over a decade! Multiple shots a day. Maintenance every once in a while. My additional recommended simple upgrade is to add a momentary switch to bypass the sensors, allowing you

I would be worried about carbonic acid production. What about a nitrogen charge instead? Could even improve creama.

Isn't calcium production one of the major contributors to atmospheric CO2 - something like 8% globally due to cement? Would this process be a net benefit or just move the footprint further back in the chain?

The new video doesn't show anything convincing either - Pyrolytic graphite behaves the same way at room temps due to strong diamagnetism.

Pyrolytic graphite looks exactly like this and behaves in exactly this way (without being superconducting) as long as one side is anchored. With a careful array of magnetic poles, graphite will levitate at room temperatures.

This is almost certainly a sham. I had hopes before watching the videos, but the only effects shown are normal paramagnetism (from the copper substrate) and diamagnetism (pyrolytic graphite).

Not if a corner is anchored, as is visible in their video. This is an obvious scam.

I greatly appreciate Jetbrains' software. But the only thing that I care about in a code font is balancing legibility with maximizing columns of text. Their overlay comparison to consolas fails on my main concern.

The game that I cared about most when doing the mod was originally Japanese and then only released in the UK and Australia in English. So the resolution was NTSC compatible. I think there were some PAL exclusives, but I never ran into one t

Yes it was the sole driver for the mod, but I did end up getting a few other carts - Tintin, and I think a Dragon Ball game. I still have this modded SNES somewhere, I should pull it out and have a nostalgia fix.

Later SNES games also used a timing check to identify PAL vs NTSC clock frequencies. The mod I did nearly three decades ago was to add a toggle switch with a second crystal that would change the clock frequency and allow the PAL game to be

I am willing to bet that statistically (with the number of mattress companies offering X night returns) that a recent mattress purchaser is more likely to purchase a different mattress within X days than the random public.

I know it is irrational - as compilers already perform optimizations that are non intuitive - but my lizard brain really doesn’t like the idea of ML possibly changing semantics at a layer that is unobservable.

“Won’t you think of the poor corporations!” That’s a new one for me. I would find it a lot less condescending to be told a straight “this made us the most money” reasoning. Anything else is obviously BS or incompetence.

Maybe I am misinterpreting the tone, but this is an incongruous belief. Nothing about a chaotic system precludes a *trend* in that system. I think it is quite objectively clear that while extremely chaotic, the trend of recent human impac
