You can imagine a version of the world where designers structure their designs in a way that can easily export to e.g. a vue component, and along with the base structural layout they define different UI states it can be in, with animation timelines. Designers should be able to specify every aesthetic variable, and developers just program the business logic to fill content tags and toggle designer-defined states.
You’re probably already aware of it, but for generative design tool inspiration check out Grasshopper. It’s for building geometric algorithmic designs based on various inputs and constraints. It also has some tools for exploring permutations / genetic algorithms.
I understand the arrangement. From a Comcast user’s perspective, very little has changed, depending on how much trust you assign to a “we promise” privacy agreement. Are Comcast users better off than default? Yes. But decoupling DNS from ISPs which sit in such a privileged position is, for me, 85% of the threat model.
I’d like to read more about how the choice will be presented to users, beyond about:config. I’d also like to understand more the community’s reaction to Cloudflare default.
What if there was a round robin setup between neutral operators? Pairing Comcast users to Comcast just seems like a wtf move.
I'm confused. For me, a major selling point of DoH is it hides DNS queries from your ISP, which has detailed personal information about you. And if you're locked into Comcast, you're operating with completely eroded trust from the get-go.
Clearly, DNS statistics are extremely valuable to Comcast, or they would not have engaged with Mozilla to get back the data, nor would they have raised hell with Congress.
I would not have expected an organization like Mozilla to sign a data deal with Comcast, even if Comcast is now theoretically restricted on how they use the data.
It’s not guilt by association, it’s guilt by action. The action of deciding to work for the company with such a mission / clientele. Especially in a role requiring enough technical knowledge to know what’s going on.
I think CS, in that era, was free if you had a HL product key. It was a community mod and even when it transitioned to a boxed standalone product you could still download it if you had a HL key. CS: Source was also a free upgrade.
Uh, what? It’s changing the UI to hide parts of the URL.
Look, I’d prefer it the other way too, but we have to choose the right words. The thought process shouldn’t be “I’m mad, what else makes me really mad like this? Oh yeah social justice workers. This UI change is therefore like social justice work.”
It’s a number of factors. School programs are biased against embellishment so there isn’t really a craft in the profession around those kind of stylistic detail, especially at graduate level. BIM software also plays a role. The trade is forever streamlining itself technically, and construction systems with their CAD part catalogs thin out selection. Depending on the development goals, throwback details may not fit with how they plan to market the building.
And pretty much all of the above contribute to added costs of perusing embellishment on the core and shell. Lack of design techniques, construction know how, and off the shelf options will drive prices up. Developers would prefer to spend money on interior build out because it sells sq footage.
I'd guess it's because GPS / cell phone tracking data rely on line of sight to towers / satellites, but GACT works on human-to-human proximity, and therefore data can survive offline locally until some point in the future when you get connection back. Also it seems the distance accuracy between human to human would be more accurate (via BT signal strength) than distance accuracy in a GPS / cell phone tower situation.
I’ve wanted to create a list of my belongings, with maybe a few other metrics like category, rough value, happiness factor, etc. How detailed did you go, and did you use it as a survey tool to initially figure out what you don’t need?
Completely agree. A few paragraphs in, I felt dread because it was going to be yet another rehash of minimalist history with with very little original thought. It’s too scared to say things directly. I think if it started with the last 2 or so paragraphs, it could offer something unique or challenging.
Germany is a roasted coffee exporter. They import green coffee beans from developing countries and process them into various coffee products (roasted beans, ground coffee, soluble crystals). Because they are transforming a raw material through an industrial process, they end up with a new product which they sell to the world (export).
What might be confusing is Germany also re-exports green beans to other countries, at a markup. This is a much smaller % compared to the coffee products they export.
To find such a clear North Star in your life, and then fully commit to it, in a totally foreign culture no less, and to know your work has literally life changing impact on others overlooked by society, must feel amazing.
Thank you for elaborating on the deeper issues surrounding MCAS. Where can I read more about Boeing's design philosophy around FCC redundancy, or more about Boeing vs Airbus philosophies?
