This looks like a good replacement for most of what I do in fusion360, but one operation I'm not sure about is importing an existing SVG file and using it for sketch geometry, say, to put an embossed logo onto something. In looking through the Replicad docs, the only SVG references I saw were about exporting.

Is this something people have done with Replicad? Perhaps with an additional lib for parsing SVG into a set of 2D curves?

Something like this? https://blingmything.sgenoud.com/

You can find the code (with SVG import) here: https://github.com/sgenoud/replicad-decorate and https://github.com/sgenoud/blingmything

And use it like this (it does not work in Firefox yet, it needs module workers): https://studio.replicad.xyz/workbench?code=UEsDBAoAAAAIAIyZV...

Why yes actually! Thanks for your quick and very helpful reply

hopefully when we finally unfold them we don't get attacked by lower dimensional beings

Also ML non-expert here. I think this is about a different kind of neuron(your 2nd suggestion). The paper another commenter linked says:

Hamiltonian neural network (HNN) intakes position and momenta {q,p}, outputs the scalar function H, takes its gradient to find its position and momentum rates of change, and minimizes the loss

<latex equation for a modified loss function that differs from traditional NN>

which enforces Hamilton's equations of motion.

https://journals.aps.org/pre/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevE.101.0...

I haven't used HNNs in practice but it seems that the main difference from common NNs is that the loss function incorporates gradients. It's not a new type of a neuron.

Alas, this feature only works for users on the browser app, and not in the mobile apps.

Yes. I'd love if the mobile version would kill the users video feeds and keep audio even just to have the synced YouTube video. Or text chat only for mobile? Any kind of graceful reduction.

I want this but just for watching general youtube videos sync'd with people

There have been these posted here, I forget their names though.

I've been thinking of doing some with all my Aunts watching their 60's-80's home videos. They all Zoom in, watch it synchronized and commentate. Would be interesting to have the family history documented, otherwise it's just an old video of a familiar face in some place.

Same! Also a Normalite here.

I don't know how you can be pretty sure about any of that, but I look forward to the faster-than-light signaling devices we can build from this new revelation about nature.

Article is a bit broken for me because while the page is https, the mathjax file is loaded from a plain http. This is apparently forbidden by current Chrome and Firefox, so the figures and LaTeX don't work. edit: ah-hah, HTTPS Everywhere must have fiddled with it.

The passenger seats of certain cars use electric field sensing in the seatback to determine if there is an adult passenger present, to decide whether to enable the passenger-side airbag. (Though simply sensing by weight is also common.)

For an example of an electric field sensor, check out the Motorola MC33794.
