...at ground level.
jesperwe··on CADmium: A local-first CAD program built for the browser
I have to say I love your approach to solving sketch constraints.

Many times I have used traditional solvers to map out an old building where no angles are 90°. I measure a bunch of distances (with some inaccuracy of course) and spend hours fighting with the solver to get to something that satisfies most of the measurements.

This takes time because I am in essence doing exactly the converging spring forces simulation that you propose. Except much slower :-)

jesperwe··on Show HN: Online database diagram editor
As soon as you add postgres SQL import this will be my daily driver! (I've been looking for a tool like this many times)
jesperwe··on A developer portfolio as a 2D top-down walking simulator
Two suggestions: - Make <esc> close dialogs - Don't repeatedly show the dialogs already shown just because user touches same object again

+1 for humour. I am a plumber, and my mobile phone is a mini-skirt. Nice combo.

It has already started. https://docs.rs/pgx/latest/pgx/

Not hard to see path ahead of us similar to Linux's gradual step towards Rust in the kernel.

jesperwe··on NetBox: a source of truth for everything on your network
"The site" is actually just their blog. The github repo at https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox is more like the real homepage and has a good presentation.

Actually, RFC 3339 specifies that a specific ISO 8601 profile should be used.
jesperwe··on Low Latency, Low Loss, and Scalable Throughput (L4S) Internet Service: RFC 9330
L4S is not really an express lane. It is a way for applications to know when their traffic is congested, enabling them to scale DOWN their traffic to alleviate the congestion. Less congestion means less latency.

Thanks for reposting, this was a very enlighting explainer!

I see what you did there :-D
jesperwe··on Moonbit: Fast, compact and user friendly language for WebAssembly
With a bit more patience you would have seen that it loads up VSCode for web, which takes a while.

Should https://www.jetsonaero.com not be on this list?
jesperwe··on What Is MmWave Radar?: Everything You Need to Know About FMCW (2022)
FMCW radar is great for precise detection, and TFA does a good job of describing it.

It would do an even better job if it also mentioned that an FMCW based human presence detector consumes several orders of magnitude more power than a PIR sensor, which means battery operation will either make the sensor very large or require frequent battery changes.

jesperwe··on Improved audio rendering with an optimised version of memcpy (2013)
I once had an "audiophile" sales person in a showroom almost hit me in anger, after confronting him on his loudspeaker cables that had arrows on them pointing out which way the cable should be connected to sound best.

As any EE knows from linear elements course A, a linear two-port network is reciprocal. If it is not reciprocal it is not linear.

The simple conclusion is that if it matters how you orient the cable, then it has distorsion.

We apparently share the same humor :) As an ex charter sailing yacht skipper and VR developer, this comment made my morning!
jesperwe··on Mermaid Cheat Sheet
I had just learned about Mermaid and used it standalone once, when I realized it is also already built into Github Markdown [0], where you can include a diagram by just going ```mermaid <code>```, which is veeery handy. In mermaid.live can also get an SVG URL which works great to paste into many online drawing tools like Miro, Diagrams.net etc.

jesperwe··on U-Bahn station in Berlin is decorated with radioactive uranium glazed tiles
Make me worry more about conditions for the workers in the tile factory than for the U-Bahn travellers...
jesperwe··on I made outlines for KDE Breeze window decoration
For example look at the "New" in the dark screen. N/e too wide compared to e/w.
