I released an update to my libE57Format library—version 3.3—to fix some build warnings & to update the build system (cmake)🏗️.

It is a C++ library which provides read & write support for the ASTM-standard E57 file format on Linux, macOS, and Windows. E57 files store 3D point cloud data, attributes associated with 3D point data (color & intensity), and 2D images (photos).

I released libE57Format v3.2.0 to address some build issues 🏗️ & fix a couple of issues with standards conformance 📋.

If you need to work with E57 point cloud files, check it out!

(E57 is an ASTM standard for vendor-neutral point cloud data files.)

🧠 I released v0.13 of my gactar tool for creating & running basic ACT-R models on multiple implementations using a single declarative file format.

ACT-R (Adaptive Control of Thought — Rational) is both a theory of cognition and an implementation of that theory in software.

🧠 I released v0.12 of my gactar tool for creating & running basic ACT-R models on multiple implementations using a single declarative file format.

ACT-R (Adaptive Control of Thought — Rational) is both a theory of cognition and an implementation of that theory in software.

This release fixes issues, adds some capabilities to the language, & adds some new command-line tools.

For any cognitive science people out there in the Mastiverse who are into *symbolic*, I've just updated my mirror of Lisp ACT-R on GitHub to **7.27.7 **from 19 July 2022.

libE57Format v3.0 was released with lots of API cleanups & fixes 🧹, updated compiler requirements (C++14), and general project health improvements ⛑️ (ASan, UBSan, testing).

ACT-R (Adaptive Control of Thought — Rational) is both a theory of cognition and an implementation of that theory in software.

This release changes it to a command-style cli & adds colour to the command-line output.

RIP Bill Atkinson - one of the original Macintosh team.

He created both MacPaint & Hypercard which had a big influence on me as a kid.

@ForestOrca @arstechnica Seconded!

I've been using Jitsi for years. Overall it's a pretty great substitute for Skype/Zoom/Teams for my use cases (2-3 people video chat - occasional screen sharing).

Along with the gactar 0.13.0 release yesterday, I released v0.4.0 of the VS Code extension for it.

This extension provides syntax highlighting, snippets to quickly create an amod file or add productions, and allows you to run gactar directly through VS Code.
