Figma on desktop is an Electron app I believe. Figma chose to build a custom webGL rendering engine for their design canvas, so the core issue is that technical decision early on (probably allowed for some better…
Exactly this. Thank you. We need a Blender-like design tool specifically for product design. Using HTML/CSS for rendering so it covers most web needs and that usually more than encompasses native app-layout emulation.…
Because I can do way more meaningful design exploration and iteration if I am not constantly running into a tool's limitations. I work at a fast paced startup where my prototyping rapidly iterates into production and…
Sketch has the same issue with handoff. Sketch does not use CSS for rendering either.
What about variables that don't use pixel units? Often values appear as hardcoded in dev-mode when they are actually meant to be a % unit or something else Figma doesn't support because Figma doesn't actually use CSS…
I actually have the opposite problem with Figma. It is way too basic and simple, targeting every kind of design and the average designer skill level. I work in complex SAAS product design. Basic things I can do in CSS I…
PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) would not have been possible without a completely unrelated discovery of a heat-resistant bacteria by a federally funded scientist years earlier. Is it possible that eventually a…
Peter Watts is fantastic. Very different tone from a lot of other scifi, with some very clever and dark ideas.
Not doing basic research, and your research is entirely driven by short-term profit motives rather than long term benefit of humanity.
Funny enough I also got diagnosed with gout once in my 20s. I have always had somewhat bad toes/bunions (probably partially genetic, and partially wearing only tight soccer shoes as a kid) and I went to a wedding…
Why have I heard so many stories of doctors not wanting to diagnose something as Lyme disease?
Honestly main reason is the UI and speed. Cursor has consistently felt faster and easier to use with better inline auto-complete and faster large edits in chat than VSCode ever did. The way suggestions and chat is shown…
Looking at the performance it's quite clearly much faster than equivalent effects done in traditional web browser rendering or in design tools.
It's not so simple. Background panning on modern TVs can look very juttery/flickery with motion-smoothing completely off. OLEDs can turn on and off very quickly, and 24 frames a second really isn't that many, so you end…
He is a serial liar, but we can also actually see the engineering progress which is remarkable regardless of his overinflated timelines. His lying doesn't change the incredible work by those engineers and other…
I'm guessing it will get nowhere close to as well considered, written, and structured as what Bartosz makes himself. I don't know how people don't see how poor quality so much AI writing is, even when referencing good…
Isn't that what they are claiming is true now? That the errors do decrease exponentially with each qubit added?

Or maybe you just have some aphantasia? My visual imagination absolutely can have a time dimension just like my audio imagination. I can remember sequences of film from movies I have seen many times with high level of…
This is where the confusion stems from. I can have very vivid mental imagery, I can imagine all sorts of fantastical things in detail in my mind on command. But that doesn't mean I don't see black when I close my eyes.…
The nuclear explosion analogy is a bit off since for anything living in the simulation the nuclear explosion would be quite real. The explosion isn't real for us in the physical world because it cannot interact with us,…
> It's an idea that comes out of sci-fi. It's been used as a plot device in some episodes of Star Trek. But it's just that, science fiction. I'm not talking about hand-wavy sci-fi or spiritual "the universe is a…
I'm struggling to understand this argument. Our brain is just hardware. Even if there is a quantum effect we haven't discovered that is necessary for it, that effect is still running on regular old atoms and molecules.…
Scratch them with your liver.
What is it with Google Maps refusing to show me the street name I'm zooming in on? It feels like they make it especially sparse on streets your route line uses!
