I wonder how this will work! A bit of an experiment #3dprinting

Lazy (photo) Layout (circular programs) http://jaspervdj.be/posts/2023-07-22-lazy-layout.html #haskell

The latter case seems to be some fixed object limit in the preview code that I’ve exceeded

In the former case, by the way, the cause was non-planar polygons. The preview function auto-tessellated them with triangles but the render did not. (And didn’t throw a coherent error either, I figured this out by guesswork)

OpenSCAD’s “preview” and “render” functions have such separate code paths that I’ve had a little project preview fine but fail to render; and now it renders fine but fails to preview.

Today was eventful for a number of reasons but my favourite was fixing a bug by adding a single newline character

@stefan she's actually a little disappointed that her printer won't print!

@csepp looks really interesting! Wish it had an atom feed

Yay the simplex patent expired

@stevelord you probably know this already, but, your blog rss (sub stack?) has gone weird (I think, or my reader has gone wrong). Shows “this is Jen’s sub stack”

Just noticed that Firefox on iOS now has sponsored links interleaved in my bookmarks on the front page. That’s only mildly annoying. It *seems* that I had to wait for some network round trips to resolve their icons, titles etc *before the uri I typed would begin to load*. If that’s right, imho it’s egregious.

@jwildeboer @kfury same. I have used a screen protector consistently for the last ten years which might have helped. Although the screens prior to that were, in theory, more fragile?

Twice (so far) this evening Firefox on One computer has reset my theme preference. This (and the frequency of such things happening) fills me with sadness.
