The cylinder (target) and the rectangle (tool) before splitting

Splitting the cylinder where it intersected the rectangle, then using all 3 parts separately.

Surface modeling is very cool. Big improvements in Zoo.

You can now split one solid (the cylinder) where it borders another solid (the thin rectangle)!

Then you can use all the separate pieces separately (moving them around for an exploded view in the second pic).

Good question, idk yet. "Write a program that processes this big file the fastest", 1hr time limit, prizes for best performance, cleanest code, dumbest hack, etc?

Exactly

zoo CLI gets better every week.

We don’t want cost to be a blocker to attend TokioConf.

If you build with Tokio, we want you there.

For every full-price ticket purchased before the end of March, we’ll add another Community Access ticket so someone else in the community can attend.

should we do this for Austin Systems?

I think I saw that, didn't know who he was or that it was intended to be '"""""""joking""""""""

A splash of vinegar is such a good seasoning.

I wish it was on mobile. It's a perfect mobile game. That's how I played the original.

I think I'd like to crash out. It looks like so much fun when people on here do it. Does anyone have any suggestions for a first time online meltdown?

Very excited to start reading Too Much Like the Lightning tomorrow

Update? I just click a link in my browser.

Tomorrow morning 9am let's fucking go dude

I love getting on a Microsoft Teams call because it tells you the other person is actually interested in making some money instead of rewriting their shit in the newest functional microframework

"Fevre Dream", George R. R. Martin. Good gothic vampire tale with fun characters and a lot of steamboats.

i am so close to getting a little treat. it's nearly affogato afriday.

One of my fav things in life right now is walking to my local shule, which takes me past an older hispanic neighbour's house. Then after shule, I text him "u up?" and he comes out and I give him some of the Jewish holiday treat we ate that night. Gave him his first latkes + hamentaschan this way.

blackpilling? Bernie is interviewing Yud and you're seriously blackpilling?

Golden-brown dog sits on a dog bed which is stacked atop another dog bed.

He's perfect

after four months of private discussions, I have an update on the Bundler and RubyGems situation with Ruby Central: andre.arko.net/2026/03/03/fou…

The old docs are deprecated, the new docs are struggling to be written. Now is the time of monsters.

Short for Mama Dearest! You're named after that bar we went to.

Two good reason to rewrite Ruby's tooling in Rust:

1. I don't know Ruby
2. I do know Rust

I made a PNG-to-KCL-voxels program. github.com/adamchalmers/kcl-engraver it's a good stress test for ZDS! It helps show bottlenecks in our engine, parser/AST and frontend.

child was being literacypilled by a fairytalemaxxing dad when she suddenly beastmogged him and totally spiked his cortisol :(

Reading Beauty and the Beast to the baby.

She points at Beauty and says "Mummy!" Great.

She points at the Beast and says "Daddy!" Oh no. I've been owned. I've been owned by a 2yo.

Once again, I have prevented the spread of misinformation online

???

a dumb joke hinging on confusing ISIS (the Institute for Science and International Security) vs ISIS (the Islamic State terror organization)

I saw this chart earlier today, which seemed convincing at first, but then I realized it was published by the Institute for Science and International Security, i.e. ISIS, which is known regional rival of Iran and therefore likely biased.
