I think it always has had a trial version. Back in the early 2000's my friend and I would mess around with the settings, hit render and then go upstairs to play with lego's or something for a couple of hours, and when it was done

That's cool, I really like it. One piece of feedback: I am usually more interested in the HN comments than in the original article. If you'd include a link to the comments then I might switch to GopherSignal as a replacement for t

It's a straw man though, whether or not AI should be allowed to learn from books is irrelevant to the point that Meta stole tens of thousands of books to accomplish this. A fact that they've admitted to and even had they not would

Would emigrating to Canada be a viable path for European citizens to eventually get a US work visa? If so, would it also be a path towards a green card?

Did you rewrite the code base into C++ to avoid the borrow checker?

This might be true on a very long timescale, but that's not really relevant for VC's. Literally every single VC I've talked to raised the question if our moat is not just having better prompts, it's usually the first que

What has changed that they are now ripe for disruption? My BSc thesis supervisor runs a company that tries to disrupt Verilog and VHDL and they've been at it for well over a decade. I don't think they're making much of a dent

That it was a closed runtime full of security issues wasn't the reason it was rejected by the open web community, or even rejected by Steve Jobs from the Apple ecosystem. Closed runtimes and security issues have always been warmly embr

This looks like a fun language. I don't like the idea of wasm, but I do like the idea of moving away from JavaScript at some point. With big software like Figma using wasm to get proper performance in the browser the benefits of such a

Anyone know if there's a good way to control 0-10V dampers? I looked for a solution to control 5 dampers but I didn't find anything, so I started to design my own a couple years ago but never finished the project. I'm having

Thanks! Those sound amazing.

Could you recommend a patch set for the reface? I bought mine off someone who had some great presets and I loved it, but one day I accidentally factory reset it and there's only a few factory defaults that are really musical as you say

No, copyright is an intrinsic thing. Copyright marks are half bullshit half indication of who owns it and since when.

In my case, it was the ingress running out of subdomains because each staging environment would get its own subdomain, and our system had a bug that caused them to not be cleaned up. So the CI/CD was leaking subdomains, eventually the

You need a separate cluster for production because there are operations you'd do your staging/QA environments that might accidentally knock out your cluster, I did that once and it was not fun. I completely agree with keeping ever

I only have 20 years of development experience, so I'll defer to Walter here, but if I were to write that equation it would look like `d + (e * g)`. I don't trust mine or anyone's understanding of operator precedence. Just lo

I think you're putting too much weight on its intentions, it doesn't have intentions it is a mathematical model that is trained to give the most likely outcome. In almost all examples and explanations it has seen from chess games,

Those are very weirdly specific examples that don't destroy much real resources at all. What resources does a casino pit boss destroy but time? And surely Prada has one of the smallest resources to money spent ratios you could imagine?

Yeah that sounds right, I'm just wondering where the materials and the labor come from. We don't just have 5% of GDP worth of those laying around, they're currently allocated to other things. Not saying it's impossible,

by tinco 2y ago
Only 1% of GDP is agriculture, yet 100% of society relies on agriculture for survival. Because we don't have food shortages right now, GDP is heavily slanted towards things that don't really matter. You can't take that sort o

It's been a couple years, but when I built our in-office render farm for my previous company I also got motherboards with built-in 10G because they needed 4GPU's and there simply no more PCIe slots left. There were so many connect

Kind of ironic that nowadays many people in our generation consider the newer generations to be lacking fundamental education because they never used GOTO based programming languages. I've talked to multiple people who lamented that yo

The reason NextJS and similar tech like SvelteKit are so popular amongst JS developers is that they alleviate the problem of Node.JS not having a great backend development experience. Building a backend in Typescript is like building it in

To be fair, we were impressed with Google Docs 15 years ago. Not saying office.com isn't impressive, but Google Docs certainly isn't impressive today. My company still uses GSuite, as I don't like being in Microsoft's ec

I'd rather have a code base I'm going to be working on in a language I haven't learned yet, than having it be in C or C++ if it's of any significant size. Learning a new language is small thing, all things considered, es

Are you saying American voters are tone deaf for prioritizing food availability over ethical sourcing of food? I mean sure, but I don't think that judgement has any consequence unless anyone grabs a soapbox and starts chastising people

Here's a helpful atheistic definition of "God" I picked up somewhere: The force that enables good things to happen to groups of people who act upon a belief that they should do good to another. I.e. if you say "thank God

I learned a bunch of programming languages on IRC, and the C and C++ communities on freenode were by far the most toxic I've encountered. Now that Rust is succesfully assimilating those communities, I have noticed the same toxicity on

Wouldn't fibers work well for ActionCable applications? Lots of connections being kept alive, with sparse activity on them?
