Could you explain what CLI you think needs to be used to install software on a Mac?

I’m not sure what part is confusing you or how to word it another way to make more sense to you. What I’m saying is that instead of using the secret AMX instructions, just use SME , assuming they have the hardware available to them. AMX isn

This is a pretty phenomenal article. Even for those who don’t care about LLM use, this is just a great article on optimizing Swift performance, which is sadly something that doesn’t have a lot of written material for. I’m curious if the AMX

That’s a bit of an absurd rebuttal. 1. I’m not making the claim it’s selling well. I’m just saying the article puts forth no supporting claim beyond the authors own repetitive opinion. 2. Your lived experience is (no offence intended) meani

This article is an opinion piece. It doesn’t have any substantive claims, even from insiders that this is the case. It’s most credible claim is that people are moving about to new projects which is not irregular in the least.

Almost every AI lab I talk to that deals with 3D has built their pipelines around Blender. This is unsurprising as a general development other than Anthropic doesn’t have a 3D model generation framework. I don’t think this is to create MCP

For what it’s worth, Asahi do upstream a lot of changes to do exactly what you’re saying. That’s a big reason why progress slowed recently because they were focusing on reducing their diff count. A lot of stuff has landed in the mainline ke

I’m curious if everyone experiencing this is on 26.4.2? It came out 4 days ago according to Wikipedia…it would make sense that it lines up with when people are seeing it start. I’m on the 26.5 beta and not seeing it at all.

This is going to be a huge chilling factor for employees. You’d no longer be able to disent, or discuss anything non-work related with even the slightest expectation of privacy. Yes they could have accessed logs before but there’s a differe

It would be cool if this used ModelIO to do the 3D model loading. It supports a ton of formats which would ease the workflow of asset import. You’d get STL, Alembic, USD, PLY support in addition to the OBJ.

This is incorrect. It’s still dependent on the OS it runs on AND the SDK it compiles against (not the OS it was was compiled on). But that is legacy bridging behaviour, and is not compiled into the app. Apple can and do change those with ti

Snide and subjective comments aside, you’ve clearly missed their point. Even if you take away subjective opinions on Liquid Glass, the point is that the core system updates things across the board. Unless apps have implemented custom drawin

They’re still completely heterogeneous in my experience as someone who works with each of their teams. It’s like talking to completely different companies who have little idea what the others are doing.

If you’re in a big city, there are likely meetups locally for game devs (usually amateurs but a few professionals show up) If you aren’t in a location with meetups , the best bet is finding online game dev communities.

As a hiring manager, it’s still the best place to try and find people for a given role. Especially when it comes to somewhat more specific skills like graphics development.

QuickTime at the time it was introduced was revolutionary. There’s a reason it was a standard. It made video playback available to systems without accelerator cards, allowed for synchronous DV import and more. A lot of these technologies se

Apple always had a B2B component. This is just the latest attempt to not make it completely subpar.

by dagmx 7mo ago
You’ve said this above and have been corrected that Apple cannot single handedly veto proposals. Given the rest of your argument hinges on a misunderstanding of the process I’m not sure it holds much merit.

It would be useful if the site listed whether these had been standardized outside of Chrome yet. It’s hard to delineate which of these are Chrome features or actual web standards. And it’s therefore hard to blame either Safari or Firefox fo

I’m curious what kind of teams you’re working in that you’re handing compressed archives of image sequences? And using tiff vs EXR (unless you mean purely after compositing)? Another reason to use image sequences is that it’s easier to re-r

by dagmx 7mo ago
I don’t understand the spread of thoughts in your post. The reason to create image sequences is not because you need to send it to other apps, it’s because you preserve quality and safeguard from crashes. A crash mid video write out can cor

Not unless they’re going right back to China. In droves.

What do you base that on? Some of the best names in academia are Chinese, and in the computer graphics world, SIGGRAPH Asia has largely eclipsed SIGGRAPH for academic presentations

This is a tautology and one at odds with itself. They simultaneously provide the high res scans but you think there’s a conspiracy to keep you from them. Why provide them in the first place then?

You’d have to convert them from GLB or USDZ to something your sliver of choice understands. Bambulabs app will directly read the USDZ if you’re on a Mac for example.

The AR viewer is using ARKit on iOS which is a default system “app”. I don’t believe Google provides the same kind of built in viewer experience with AR Core being surfaced as an app.
