It’s in their TOS. The answer is more or less forever: “Standard Commercial License: A BioRender Standard Commercial License is provided to all paid industry accounts allows you to use our Asset(s) anywhere in the world, and the license nev

I don’t really worry about this kinda thing. A display has several GB/s of information displayed. Microphones don’t have nearly that much bandwidth. (This is why headphone cables don’t change much and Bluetooth audio is easy but video

I just built my first static page since middle school this last weekend using netlify and a static site generator [Publii]. I was amazed at how simple and fast netlify is. I’m confident I could figure out how how to do something much more c

Federally, it helps and a lot of financial aid comes from the federal government.

I live in a less densely populated area. It’s pretty nice. Rural living is nice if you can afford it. Turns out lots of wealthy people buy up the nice rural places. It’s kinda like the city in that regard. Being poor sucks, urban or rural i

I unsubscribe anything that is not a person or relevant notification even if I pay for a service. [flight itinerary w/ confirmation number = ok, Spotify trending = not ok]. I suspect other people do as well.

I have a CDL (Class A). My understanding is that the requirements for a CDL are mostly around mitigating the risks created by large or hazardous vehicles. It wasn’t clear for me that the referenced Amazon program would be having drivers ope

FYI, Trimble bought SketchUp from Google so it’s technically no longer ‘Google Sketchup’.

Architecting solutions is hard. In this case, you need knowledge of motors, flight controls, sensor fusion, etc. It’s easy to find edge cases when they present themself (tragically here). But most electrical-mechanical-software assemblies h

I understand where you are coming from. I have a couple of these of my own. Apple probably doesn’t want to make these stronger than the things the connect to: eg headphones or the phone. Within certain load profiles the weakest component w

Yeah. Agreed. Also, new technologies tend to come along and disrupt things from completely outside the scope of the people working within the industry.

Gas engines also have over temperature problems. Indeed, there is an entire cooling system do deal with it. Mostly, as long as that is working and you aren’t going full throttle on an extremely warm day you don’t have to think about it. Any

It’s mostly personal preference. I prefer two identical monitors next to each other which works well for multitasking with two different applications, eg IDE + safari. In this setup, the bezels help separate the contexts for each applicatio

There’s lots of oxygen in the atmosphere, typically the iron will be completely turned into rust before the oxygen runs out.

I have a feeling it’s more of an emotional self-rightous rant similar to the ones people have when picking their favorite football team or car brand. I’ve read many of the anti apple comments around here - and most of the criticisms have so

I think you provide a convincing case of the problems of statistical significance: Without context on the 800 scientists that signed, we don’t know whether it’s stastically significant or not. 800 Nobel prize winners would certainly mean mo

Unfortunately I’d have agree with you. When your a regular at a coffee shop and the Barista knows your name, your dogs name and your regular order, that’s nice. When the robot does the same thing, it tends to come out creepy and annoying.

This assumes brain time is free. Most of us are too busy navigate all of the deals. Sure, just this one thing for audible is easy. But then you have to remember that other thing for Hulu ..and weird trick for Spotify ...and the spring promo

Getting apples to apples numbers to compare can be difficult. People tend to built more stories in more desireable (read expensive) places.

Solving the model is usually CPU bound while rendering is usually done by the GPU.

As long as the thermal strain(deformation) and therefore stress is managed, it would be fine. There are design tables and values that one can refer to that limit maximum cyclic stress which might be particularly applicable here.

We have glues that for practical purposes would be just as hard to repair. Repairability is generally a choice of the designer/manufacturer. Cars have lots of welding on them and are still plenty repairable.

CAD tools generally have pretty good lock in. So that certainly helps with the long term the prospects. I’m not going to convince my team to move over from the tools they use. But the engineering team that makes their jobs irrelevant becaus

‘Idea Guys(and gals)’ are fine if they have ‘ideas’ that translate into successful business and have skills to execute them. We generally call these people ‘serial entrepreneurs’. The difficulty is that it’s not hard to identify that people

Producting things that make people willing to pay you money can be very different than the skills emphasized in advanced degrees. As long as you understand how you bring value to others, you’ll probably be fine. Conversely if you don’t, one

The other day I got some funny looks when I yelled ‘exercise’ at my phone in a locker room because I couldn’t remember how to spell it.
