How about using something like NaN instead of 0? To not have a small set of calculations being all 0 and missing from a larger end result (which would go to NaN instead).
You see, there is a system. Starting from the right: pedestrians, bikes and lastly cars. We never deviate from that system, that way everyone always know where everything is. Sometimes there's a bike lane, but that still goes between the pedestrians and the cars.
Also, if everything else fail, and this is what kids in Denmark is taught. If you're ever in doubt if the drivers have seen you, assume they haven't and stay away from the cars. You're on a bike, it's a great means of transportation and it's really safe (at least here), but if you're hit by a car, it's going to hurt you more than the car, so stay away from them.
I think it's weird that people in countries that have the most cyclist are also the people who least of all believe that bikes have some weird right of way or than bikes should just be in the middle of heavy traffic.
Conversely, it makes sense that a country with chronic bike infrastructure baked into the legal system would assume bikes use that infrastructure. If there is a safe, protected bike lane, I’m happy to use it.
In other countries, bike infrastructure is sparse, poorly designed, and frequently dangerous. Bicyclists must drive defensively to stay alive. Sometimes this means taking the full lane because staying to the side puts you in danger of dooring or makes you vulnerable to aggressive drivers who will squeeze by without adequate space.
AngularDart is sadly basically dead these days at least publicly. It still runs all of Google Ads so it’s very well maintained internally I imagine but it’s officially unsupported publicly at this point which I agree is a shame.
Flutter for web is at a weird stage right now. I think once AOM, WASM-GC and WebGPU are in place and well supported across browsers it will be a very different story but thats probably a year or two away at this point.
The public version of AngularDart (i.e. not the one that Google maintains for its internal teams) is in maintenance mode, which is a shame because it was awesome.
I only made it very recently. I had tried absolutely everything and gotten almost nowhere. I finally stumbled onto everlywell.com tests, took the comprehensive test of 200+ foods, and discovered almonds and dairy were the main culprits. I would ave been very unlikely to eliminate almonds as part of an elimination diet.
Anyway, once I was able to feel better again, even for a day or two, I then was able to try other changes along the decision tree in the problem space. It soon became obvious what caused what. Everlywell says that 18 months of avoidance can often allow us to eat foods we're sensitive to again. I've blabbered about it at length in my previous comments, probably too much haha.
What a reasonable and not-at-all unhinged threat model. I should be kept up at night worried that currency counterfeiters will break into my house, steal my printer, use it to print fake money, the cops will find that money, use these dots to get metadata to find me, then what no-knock raid me?
idk I think I'll just accept that risk, it's a lot more likely that my ex will stab me after all
These types of threat models require a bit of creative flair:
0315 am, a drone flies over your house and hovers just long enough to upload firmware to your WiFi-enabled printer. Having not memorized your printers serial number, and certainly not checking it every day, you don’t notice the new firmware or orientation of dots.
Your printer, along with an identical model bought later and cloned to yours, are now forensically indistinguishable. Your printer driver phones TonerCo for a refill. It arrives with the fanfare of fast shipping.
11 months later, your address and credit card purchase are enough to convince the right judge to grant a no-knock warrant. Your printer has embroiled you, or someone just as innocent as you, in a very bad time.
Gromov was my father's thesis advisor. From what I know, he seems an extremely intelligent and insightful person. Sadly I've never had a chance to meet him.
On a tangent here, but "not just 3d printing a plastic part" got me thinking.
Scientists, instead of requesting time on Hubble, ask time for the 3DBuilderAndExperimenter, give it a blueprint and inputs/outputs, it runs, returns any results, and is recycled.
