Very cool. Reminds me of Erlang Observer.

The video didn't say, but their website says it's 92,000 USD (and there's a build queue). https://www.jetsonaero.com/

The src directory is empty. Is there no implementation, this is just a specification?

Just as COVID started, my friends and I were planning a trip to Victoria, BC to participate in one of Battlesnake's live tournaments. Travel restrictions put a stop to things, but ever since then, Battlesnake has had an amazing online&

You build the API which implements a move handler, and every turn of the game the Battlesnake engine calls your move API with the full board state information and your API returns a move (up down left or right). https://docs.batt

In ontology, you can think of the concept of "table" as being a role that an object can fulfill (possibly for a given period of time) rather than strictly a specific class of object. For example, let's say you move into a new

You're right that it's not that simple, but to be clear, my parents did teach me stuff like history and they did their best to make it interesting. It just so happened that I enjoyed some topics and activities more than others, an

Nerve-wracking because homeschooling teaches you nothing about career readiness without experience, but that's basically true whether or not you got to spend most of your childhood experimenting with things you actually end up enjoying

My story is similar to that of the parent comment and I would say the most important thing is to be supportive of the activities and interests that your future children are driven towards. If they're into computers, let them tinker wit

I've taken the course, and highly recommend it to everyone! I wish I had taken it years sooner, as most of the techniques can be applied to any learning endeavor. The instructors do touch on having a "growth mindset", as well

Have a look at Materialize[0]. It automatically updates your materialized views using a dataflow model (differential dataflow) so that reads are fast even if you're running the same query over and over. It's a step up from rolling

I second this, and if you're not sure where to start then this is a great one because it will give you some study tools to use on your next course(s)!

This is also a good technique to not forget where you parked in a large parking lot.

That is what I was referring to as "crypto-erasure" (also known as "crypto-shredding"). I'm not sure what counts as legally validated, but some have shared concerns that the encryption you use to do this would need

Great article. One thing that wasn't pointed out that might be of interest to someone learning about Event Sourcing is that it introduces some challenges if you are to be compliant with GDPR and similar laws. For example, if your event

You're correct. It's common for GraphQL API implementations to batch all the parent record's fields up front, but it's not the only way. One alternative method is to traverse the whole query object and generate one big q

Love the idea! If/when you end up writing this, I'd love to be notified (or if you have a blog I'll just subscribe now) :-)

Something tells me that it would help to make the layout 3D. For example, if housing units are arranged in a pyramid-like layout with transport areas throughout, then there are more points closer to the center than if you have a flat city.

This is fascinating. Software can now simulate natural motion, including realistic bipedal walking animations that react to simulated forces while continuing to stay upright. I remember seeing this in Endorphin years ago and I believe these

Thank you for the pics! That is a very unique gimbal design :-)

Hobbiest, here. While these types of products are very easy to learn how to control, I would discourage anyone from suggesting that they "fly itself" because it's that type of thinking that encourages newcomers to the hobby t

It appears to not have a 3-axis gimbal for the front camera, in the promo photos. Yet the demo footage is stable. How is video stabilization accomplished? Does it use the 4K cameras all around the airframe for the actual footage and not jus

It's strange to me that they pointed out Domain Driven Design without any mention of CQRS (which isn't strictly linked to DDD, but is commonly associated) or how Graphiti would help with some of the pitfalls of CRUD-based APIs. In

And there are many more options now, in various languages. StaticGen.com has a pretty big list.

Agreed! My Sansa Clip+ is still going strong (magically, the battery still works after all this time) and thanks to Rockbox it can do hundreds of things it couldn't do originally.

The simplest technique for a blog, IMO, is using a static site generator. Deploying static assets is simple, and you have your pick of generators/languages.
