Very serious engineering work happening here @zoodotdev

Rust is a woke cult and bad for the world.
C++ of course is the word of God and shall not be criticized.
All this according to people who don’t use either, so you should trust them, don’t form your own opinions, opinions are woke.
Lunduke just bleats about shit he doesn’t like and certainly doesn’t understand. Dude is still hating on systemd for fucks sake 🤣
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:
Rust is a *really* bad idea for any software you need to have working a few years from now (AI generated or not), or want to continue developing into the future.
Not because Rust is ugly (which… it is).
And not because Rust is, overwhelmingly, a cult (again… it is).
But simply because Rust is still a moving target. The language is not yet “complete”… and neither is the compiler. Changes occur often enough (and in significant enough ways) to throw serious monkey wrenches into any sizable project.
Once Rust stabilizes (which could happen quickly if the Cult of Rust actually wanted it to), this problem will quickly go away.
Until then I will be sticking with C. Or C++. Or, heck, any language that is more stable than Rust.
We’re looking to hire someone to help build our infrastructure! If you love CAD, Rust, and IaC this is the job for you! zoo.dev/jobs/4633118005?gh_s…
It’s out! So much cool stuff we’ve built!
We're thrilled to announce v1.0 of Zoo Design Studio is officially released! Get the full power of a professional CAD platform, enhanced with ML through Text-to-CAD.
🎉 Start using Zoo Design Studio now for free → zoo.dev/design-studio
Read @jessfraz’s blog post on the why, the how, and what you can expect on day one. (Spoiler: we wrote our own Geometry Engine, programming language, ML model, and CAD GUI)

Glad we solved the PIVOT!!! problem.
We plugged the management port for our PDU into the switch it itself powers. The astute among you might recognize the flaw in this approach.

Zoo is building a CAD suite that runs in the cloud, but by minimizing latency it feels like it's rendered locally. Find out what they're doing to keep latency low & UI responsive in @adam_chal & @iterion's #P99CONF session that starts in 5 min! ow.ly/kNrt50TRy1Q

Our @zoodotdev data center is now 2 Sock compliant which is, of course, better than SOC2 in many ways.

.@zoodotdev is creating a CAD suite that runs in the cloud but feels like it's local. Learn how to design big models on low-power machines without lag from @adam_chal @iterion at our highly technical and free #P99CONF on Oct. 23-24. ow.ly/Ifsz50SNe2p

I have found no APIs that cannot be accurately described by an OpenAPI spec, and yet the number of accurately described APIs is too damn low!
Sign up for @P99CONF if you want to learn how we make our streaming CAD app in the cloud feel like it’s running locally!
We just filmed our talk for this year's @P99CONF! I'm really excited to talk about how we kept our cloud-streaming CAD app quick and responsive. P99conf is one of my favorite conferences, it's free and I learn SO much every year. Sign up to view it! youtube.com/watch?v=y6WXlzfQ…
Wait, what?
ALT Backend hands frontend a note that says "500 server error" which causes frontend some dismay. Upon further inspection response also contains OK and frontend is confused.
DR testing done. @jessfraz just unplugged the entire switch and my stream went away and came back 😂
Just got our full app running on servers in our office, zero dependencies on AWS aside from S3, and zero code changes to our app. It’s amazing how much k8s do for you.
Betting markets are clearly biased by those stupid enough to bet on presidential elections, but yeah, spend your money and skip the actual voting part, I’m cool with it.
I also still love the k8s server as cattle metaphor, my cattle just poop heat directly, no need for the pesky methane and manure.
