> Blender suffers from the habit of redesigning its entire interface every other version, although it seems to have calmed down lately. I think this is a bit misleading. The last major UI overhaul was in 2011 with blender 2.57. Since th

I actually love how window panes work in blender. It's a bit nonstandard, but once you get the hang of it you realize how powerful it is. It makes the entire interface customizable, and I actually miss it every time I move into anoth

I already type on my iPhone without looking at the keys. You don't need tactile feedback to touch type. If you use the though bar in a particular app enough, I imagine muscle memory will help you out.

I was really hoping the iPhone 7 would ship with usb-c. But after watching Apple promote their lighting headphones I can't really see them switching to USB-c in the foreseeable future.

I was just thinking about the continence of swapping sides. Unless it's possible to charge from all four ports at once. 4x charging would be cool ;).

I'd be more interested in which render engine was used. The animation portion could be easily be done in any of the software you memetioned. My guess would renderman due to apples relationship with Pixar, but that's complete spe

Being able to charge from any of the four ports is legitimately cool. I also will be happy not buying an $80 power brick every time my cable frays. The touch bar will provide some significant user experience and workflow improvements. Over

After trying one of their ultra thin keyboards I can't say I actually mind it. The wide keys feel great to type on, although the shallowness definitely takes some getting used to. I do the majority of my typing on a Das Keyboard Mehc

I've always been the opposite. I can't stand coming home to an apartment filled with people. After dealing with chaos all day, I want to know there's a quiet, tidy place where I can relax. I dislike coming back and having

Blender on Linux is rock solid. Blender on windows isn't bad, but it does crash on me occasionally. It's funny, four years ago this wasn't at all the case. I can't tell you how much work I've lost from older vers

I've been following blenders development pretty closely and I haven't heard this. If it's true then that's very unfortunate.

Blender has been an incredibly useful tool and I use it almost every day. The number of things it can do is remarkable. Video editing, 3d modeling, animation, physics simulations, ray tracing, procedural texture generation, camera trackin

You should add some gifs with a lower frame rate. I had to download the one you had and walk through frame by frame. Absolutely beautiful.

A couple months ago I took the letters off the keys on my iPhone (my keyboard looks like a grid of white squares, jailbreak required). I can confirm touch typing on a touch screen is definitely possible and actually very convenient. I don

I tried using $NAME.co, but everyone seemed to think it was a typo. I Recently switched over to $NAME.io and haven't had any issues. It's short, looks nice, and I've had generally positive reactions to it.

I doubt we will ever see a laptop running iOS. iOS was designed solely for a touch interface. At the same time, apple has been outspoken about not wanting touch screens on laptops because of ergonomic issues and other things. http:/

Would you recommend OpenGL? I was under the impression that OpenCL was the equivalent of Cuda and OpenGL was specifically for 2d / 3d rendering.
