Yes, we are all well aware of Dune3d. I'm a big fan of Lukas K's work. In fact I wish he had done our GTK port first, and then forked Solvespace to use Open Cascade to solve the problems he needed to address. That would have given me this task for free ;-) We are not currently planning to incorporate OCCT but to simply extend and fix the small NURBS kernel that Solvespace already has.
Can you comment on the business case here? I think there was a Blender add on that uses Solvespace under the hood to give it CAD-like functionality.
I don’t know any pros using Solvespace by itself, and my own opinion is that CAD is the wrong paradigm for most of the things it’s used for anyway (like highway design).
I'm sorry I know this HN and not reddit, but your formulation is so close to the meme "Thinking quickly, Dave constructs a homemade megaphone, using only some string, a squirrel, and a megaphone."
This is interesting but clearly not intended for security/cryptographic applications... no security hardening, no hardware cryptography, and it's also not available in a card form factor according to the datasheet.
I'm sorry, but that's a really narrow minded take. There are a lot of good reasons to have IDA or Ghidra installed on your computer, if only for fun and learning reverse-engineering. This should NOT prevent you to play others games.
( To everybody reading this : if you like computer and puzzles, you should absolutly try to reverse-engineer a simple binary at least once. It's fun !)
I assume this is a joke, but still... I have had Ghidra open in the background for a while (weeks), as I worked on some IoT projects for my cats. While I'm biased and I hold some unpopular opinions... I think not just me, but most people definitely would get offended if suddenly some game would refuse to start and/or ban online account.
Honestly, banning players because they have RE tools feels like a generally counter-productive idea. Best-case scenario is that it'll require an engineer who was actually going to RE game files to get another account, stalling them very briefly. Worst-case scenario is getting someone with technical skills and free time pissed off enough to actually start messing with the game (potentially, in a less respectful way than your average cheat developer might - looking for game-breaking exploits than just automating things or providing extra information to the player), even if they didn't mean to.
I have tried quite a lot of alternative discord clients, my favorite is still Abaddon[0]. It works great, and its UI is fonctionnal enough for my needs.
C89 (aka ANSI C) was "standard" C for years. C99 was released, and largely ignored until the mid-2000's, and then gradually began to grow. As of about 2015, C99 was probably the "standard" C dialect, but there is still a lot of C89 out there, especially where you have niche toolchains.
I wouldn't seriously consider C11 unless you're certain that the toolchain supports it, and there's some feature that you really need. And that's pretty unlikely.
Thank you for your response. You are right that my phrasing implied a bit too much conspiracy. That was not really my intention, but I was curious to have experts views on those hypothetis.
