What is the US going to do, apply more tariffs?

I recently also got annoyed with OpenSCAD and its limitations and therefore started experimenting with Build123d. I'm very much a beginner in the CAD space and would love to understand what inspired you to build sdf.

My basic understanding is that STL files are essentially like Bitmap images and store a list of triangles and their positions, whereas STEP files are more like Vector art where there is a list of instructions on how to build the model. Most CAD GUI programs also operate on a similar model to vector art where they record a list of operations one on top of another. It's why STEP files are a standardized format and can be imported / exported from most GUI based CAD builders. I think.

Given that SDF also seems like it builds only STL files (I could be wrong), wouldn't learning build123d or CadQuery work better if one cares about compatibility with existing GUI based CAD modeling software?

Additionally, atleast build123d offers a similar conceptual model to using Fusion360 and FreeCad - I have limited experience here - but essentially you sketch something in 2D on a particular plane, and then apply some operations to convert it to 3d in a particular manner - the simplest being extruding. This means the mental modeling of how to construct something is very similar across both GUI based CAD programs and Build123d, and that makes it easier for me to jump between GUI based and code based CAD modelling.

I'd love to understand your point of view, and learn more.

You're also saving on bandwidth.

Paradoxically, I'd still want to pay per minute of viewing time, if I'm watching the show on 2x the speed.

That way, I'd happily use any service to watch whatever cause it would be convenient, instead of piracy.

And it would be a reason for them to really improve their recommendation systems.

> this paper was not a retrospective study of electronic health records, it was a randomized clinical trial, which is the gold standard. This means that we’ll be forced to immediately throw away our list of other obvious complaints against this paper. Yes, healthier patients may come in the morning more often, but randomization fixes that. Yes, patients with better support systems may come in the morning more often, but randomization fixes that. Yes, maybe morning nurses are fresher and more alert, but, again, randomization fixes that.

I really don't see why we're still using A/C inside our houses / apartments. I understand that the transmission loss is lower when sending A/C, so it makes sense, but then nearly every device in my house has their own AC to DC converter. Just have one AC-DC converter per building.

I'd like the future to just be USB-C sockets in my house. We have USB-C PD 3.1 which supports up to 48v, I imagine that would be good for all devices.

There are probably safety reasons why this future might be difficult.

Ever since ssh almost got backdoor-ed, the only thing "exposed" on my servers is Wireguard, which is UDP based and therefore harder to know if it's running. SSH also goes over wireguard.

Isn't the amount of profit the company is making (and how that will change) what matters and not what its share price is?

Having a separate device for separate tasks, can often be quite useful.

Why is increasing your code coverage to 100% matter? Would that reduce bugs or speed up development in any way?

Wouldn't it just add lots more code to maintain and make refactors more time consuming?

It only comes under jeopardy, if there are reasonable alternatives the Apple app store (not move to Android).

Otherwise, it's easy for Apple to say - we are now taking step x, y and z, and "trust us".

In that context, counting where the number of attempts is 0 doesn't add anything to the thesis.

An article from Yahoo [0] says it's "$29.99 per month or $167.99 per year", but they don't link to a source.

Their iOS team seems to be the one who experiment the most with new features, and then they either get discarded or finally make it to Android, and then in a few years to the Web.

It is really annoying, as when I used Duolingo (stopped because of the new update in Jan), I would often use all three platforms, and have the worst experience.

A better description would be "A PHP based web app which calls OpenAI's Whisper API to transcribe speech"

The first result in Google [1] which I often use, lets me paste a unix timestamp in seconds, milliseconds or nano seconds, and it accordingly converts it to a Human readable string.

Is that not the feature you built this for?

[0] - I understand that types can be added on top, but I never found the integration to work that well with mypy when I last tried it many years ago.
