> Create a dating app that matches people based on their interest in software development history. Use the BRL-CAD source code repository, the oldest known public version-controlled codebase in active development since 1983, as a conversation starter for tech-savvy singles looking for a unique and intellectually stimulating dating experience.

I learned about BRL-CAD today, not sure I would use it in a dating context, though.


I haven't tried Meta's yet but Photoshop's tool though decent struggles with complex scenes


it doesn't work on mobile for now unfortunately


Maybe Romans were getting those for the cool factor, similar to how the tungsten cubes are en vogue today.


I wonder how many cheap plastic Happy Meal toys will someday thousands of years from now be dug up and deemed to have special religious significance to our culture.


No, it's the super heroes and Disney figurines what will be considered deities - their sheer volume will make them a frequent archeological finding.

The use of “No” here suggests a dearth of experience with Happy Meal toys, because these aren't opposed ideas.


if history is any guide then the future archeologists looking at the content of our internet will conclude that we're living in matriarchate these days (with Pamela Anderson interpreted along the lines of "religious figures,[5] an expression of health and fertility, grandmother goddesses") like the today's scientists conclude that about past societies upon finding this Venus figurines

Or like for example another interpretation there produced by scientists who seem to have never seen that Kim Kardashian Instagram post :)

"It has been suggested that they may be a sign of an earlier prevalence of steatopygia, now associated principally to women of certain African or Andamanese ancestry. However the Venuses do not qualify as steatopygian, since they exhibit an angle of approximately 120 degrees between the back and the buttocks, while steatopygia is diagnosed by modern medical standards at an angle of about 90 degrees only.[21]"


Our Gods Wear Spandex [1] is actually a super interesting book.

Praise be Mickey.


The cumulative inflation will not be undone even if the inflation rate falls next year.


The rate can fall to negative, i.e. deflation can happen. It probably won't overtake inflation overall but it will be expected in areas like used cars. It isn't a one way ratchet.


I got my start in Clojure with ClojureScript. If you do front end web development it's a great way to jump in. I think I actually now prefer ClojureScript with the Reagent and Re-frame libraries more than standard React using js/TypeScript.


It is not as bad as some sensationalist headlines made it seem, but they should still implement some kind of rate limiting to prevent mass scraping.


I get extreme migraines if I take it every day for more than a week. For me, eating Vitamin D fortified foods and sunlight seems to be more than enough.


I've had some pretty strange dreams over the years. Including some that were 2D animations, others that were like video games with cutscenes and text overlays. And that's without considering the precognitive dreams and those with side effects in the real world.
