What is a console grade renderer? Specifically, what's considered table stakes and what is Filament missing?

The Objective-C folks probably are chuckling their square brackets send messages.


Hard to see a world without modules as a means of compartmentalization for various reasons. You do have to appreciate the exercise what a world without them looks like / the implications.


You have to wonder if it is over engineering, or a resolution for something they've discovered from shipping so many phones. I wouldn't think of the camera as a security vector, but maybe Apple thinks it is?


The camera and mic are generally regarded as security sensitive because of the possibility that they can be used to surveil. That’s why it’s a selling point to have physical hardware or hardware-bound controls or indicators that can’t be bypassed by the OS.


If you don't have any of those alternatives in the first place.

The Best Food Review Show Ever went to Egypt for a series and the authorities impounded their video equipment and wouldn't let the team access the equipment until they left Egypt. Sunny, the host, was super frustrated but stated that the default was buying a few iPhones and filming the whole show through those devices.

I believe this is the series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-PgumHXWVo


The Harvard Art Museum also has a copy: https://harvardartmuseums.org/collections/object/203742

I don't think most folks realize there are a couple of copies in Boston!


But is it on view? Most museums only rarely exhibit it to avoid fading. That's why, according to TFA, 56 museums have it in their collections but only two have it on view.


7 in Boston! So far they have shown 2 different impressions since the exhibition started. I am tracking the Harvard one, no movement since the project started.


Do you have any refs/links of UI thought out at PRs and issues that you think are good examples?


One thing I really appreciate about your site is that you have a setup guide, with photos! This is really helpful for folks unfamiliar with how to run a spec.

Is there any way to do performance testing with TLA+? I always had the impression that TLA+ could help you validate the design of what you intend to build, but was less helpful if you wanted to see the performance implications of the design.


Is Dgraph out of business? I still see their product website up?


They seem to have hired a number of people over the last few months. Could be a recapitalization + new leadership.


They have a new CEO, Akon Dey: https://www.linkedin.com/in/akon-dey-34a757/

So still in business although he seems lacking in senior management experience.
