While the world may be coming off the latest caffeine buzz surrounding the iPhone 5, something even bigger and more important just happened: Jony Ive is now king of hardware AND software design at Apple. In a press release issued Monday, Apple announced ‘Changes to Increase Collaboration Across Hardware, Software & Services’. Is this finally going to be the answer for a seamless hardware/software experience with Apple products?
If you’re likely to draw roots of polynomials up and down your forearms, you may have an over-eccentric appreciation for the math. You may also have a dusk-to-dawn fixation on software that can help save you long nights of scrubbing your arms while watching re-runs of Bill Nye solve for X. PTC is taking a new direction with their popular Mathcad software, offering a pro version and a new free version. The bonus? Take a look.
When you think of the building you’ll live in–you’re home–in the future, I know this is exactly what you imagine. Ok, maybe your vision has a little more color, some nice rugs and a few robot servants to dust all the nooks and crannies, but this is pretty close. London-based Softkill Design is putting the question of using 3D Printing in architecture to rest, and likely raising more questions, with Protohouse, a scale exploration of fine living in the future, that was shown last week at 3D Printshow London. Here’s all the detail you’re hungry for.
The days dwindled. The chimes clanged. Both breeze and beeling lit upon the last leaf of the season. Looking across the land there was an eerie warmth massing piles of fog from the water bottoms. The glow was faint at first, then deep it plunged and emerged these links. Gilar – Love the use of…
Some people say coffee and CAD don’t go together. I don’t know any of those people, but if you do, look upon them with scorn and derision as you sip your scalding hot coffee through a mechanical pencil casing. Coffee is as essential a tool for creating 3D geometry as being able to move 3D geometry between different version of the same software (OOOoooo. ahem.) So, it goes without saying that a resource that relates coffee and CAD (even if only by name) is also essential. This resource is Solidperks Café. A new Jobs/Resource/Forum website launched by our good friend Dan Bertschi for the SolidWorks community.
