What would you say the letters NS stand for? Perhaps "Not Standforanything"?

What does the NS prefix mean?

Thanks!

Another suggestion: more feedback when two pieces click together - I'm currently dragging it around to check if they're connected. For example, they could lose the outline that separates them, or change outline color to be the same.

If you appreciate when keyboard interaction gets added to a GUI, then you might think of a graphical language as the opposite, as it essentially removes keyboard interaction from what is normally a text-based system.

Neat. Doesn't work well in android Firefox for me.

No, because it doesn't make sense to experience it in that context. I think of it as more like poetry . For example: https://www.norvig.com/spell-correct.html

Clearly the classic of polyhedral globes

Not that I disagree, but I think this is how many people feel about AI output in fields they care about.

It's also a funny historical mirror to an earlier phase of math proof culture: in a previous era, cryptic result dumps were quite common.

Aluminum chain mail!

These look nice. I met someone with juggling balls made of aluminum chain mail, I immediately thought it was the best material for the purpose. She said she made them herself, then shared the instructions with me. It was a great COVID project. Now I have three juggling balls, and a bunch of leftover rings that I use occasionally for small repair and mounting tasks.

No, not if you're matching the volume of items between the two scenarios.

Right, 100 trucks delivering 100 single items to 100 homes, or 100 consumers each making 1 trip to buy 100 things. It really depends on the details too much to simplify it so far.

I suggested it to my young kids and it became an instant favorite.

Do you experience many "life challenges" at work?

Is the super-consumption aspect of it really so different than any other big box store?

In steam deck desktop mode, the touchpad-as-mouse makes it just bearable enough to use. I can't use desktop mode with a wireless Xbox controller with no touchpads. It's really the missing input type that makes the steam deck a complete tv-docked PC.

As they say, history rhymes

Ti89 emulator on my android. Muscle memory from high school and college use is strong.

And yet, anything beyond one lifetime is entirely out of reach...

The tearing down of those institutions IS the ebb.

The most material is removed at the corners of the lid-lifting notch. Those are IMO the most offensive pointy part on the body.

It has been one of the main complaints about openscad for some time

Got any example results/chat sessions? I've had little luck with LLMs for 3d modeling

I don't think "obvious" is the right word here. It makes perfect sense when you understand it, but it's not a conclusion that most people could come to immediately without detailed, assisted study.

Thanks for sharing, I might have too much NIH syndrome to use it but I'd love to check it out.

True, but I think there's another dimension implied: how many devs are left that understand the code? Being able to start at zero is a fascinating surprise (compared to five years ago).

And yet we are surrounded by cameras that do this constantly

It's the repainting that bothers me

Well whatever the zero means, it can't be the number of days that the bug has been present, generally. It should be expected that most zero-days concern a bug with a non-zero previous lifespan.
