MESA, a piece of software referenced in this article, is a pretty incredible system. (Even referring to it as software underplays the extent of its community and impact.) Many people are involved in MESA and Bill Paxton…
I'll still be around on Oct 1.
I bought a Pixelbook during the middle of their product lifetime, and it was one of the best laptops I ever had. I genuinely don't know how broadly that sentiment was shared, but the cancellation of the product line…
I am genuinely delighted that `dcc` (the system I play with my friends) is in the list of systems currently supported: https://rpg.actor/systems and I might participate as a result. Very cool.
Ghidra is a very impressive piece of software with a deep bench of functionality. The recent couple major releases that move to a more integrated Python experience have been very nice to use.
Kaitai is absolutely one of my favorite projects. I use it for work (parsing scientific formats, prototyping and exploring those formats, etc) as well as for fun (reverse engineering games, formats for DOSbox core…
I do so love the TI-99/4A. I've been going through some TI-99/4A disk archives from the Chicago Texas Instruments User Group (which streams its meetings every month) and one of my favorite finds so far was this fun…
I don't think that it's fair to compare the rendering to what is currently in use in the scientific community, for two main reasons: The first is that different types of rendering have different uses; typically in…
Not a dumb question! Markwhen has a CLI: https://docs.markwhen.com/cli that I used.
One feature of DOSBox-X I've come to really appreciate when reverse engineering is that you can toggle the debug log on and off. Additionally, it can display the current VGA palette in the main window.
Sure -- the other comments have done a good job of explaining my usage of "sentence fragment" (which was what we referred to it as in my composition classes in high school, although I now see this may have been more…
The TI-99/4A community is really (and somewhat surprisingly) still very active. Among other things, the monthly stream from the CTIUG on YouTube ( https://www.youtube.com/@chicagotiug5404 ) of their monthly meetings at…
A project I work on is currently working through a bunch of performance issues that arose because we had inlined functions in `pxd` files that we did not declare `noexcept nogil`. So, heads up if you see similar…
I kind of dislike the "Google graveyard" discourse, but ... I started using Pocketcasts after the demise of Google Listen.
I'll be honest and say that I - not even that long ago - held similar attitudes and slowly made a series of compromises (to myself) that led to this point. While I'm not sure I fully regret it I do think it was ... not…
This is a much better idea than the d216, and probably a lot more fun.
I really like the "funky dice" that get used in Dungeon Crawl Classics [1], like the D5 which shows up here. Also, it's probably worth noting that Lou Zocchi had at least four major iterations of the Zocchihedron…
I grew up here. You could smell the tannery from miles away. In sixth grade, we had a visit from a community member. I forget the nominal purpose, but it was in the sixth grade building which at the time was just down…
The article suggests they will be able to "unambiguously identify" Population III stars, which would be absolutely incredible.
I believe it was made with Twine: https://www.konbini.com/en/techandinnovation/twine-free-tool... http://twinery.org/
Yup, and we don't use a rainbow colormap by default anymore! We do provide a few custom ones that were developed with viscm, which I believe was used by in development of viridis, magma, etc. I think the specific…
This inspired a project I worked on with some collaborators a while back. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10773 and code: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/thingking We used it to enable analyzing trillion particle…
Reading over the list of priorities in the PDF linked from the Whitehouse blog, the one that I was the most pleased about was improving HPC productivity.
At SciPy this year, Kester and I will be giving a talk on this: https://conference.scipy.org/scipy2014/schedule/presentation...
That's true for the GDrive integration. All of the python-in-PNaCl code is available already as part of naclports.
