Alright, future engineers!
The **Dot Product** takes two vectors and returns a scalar. It tells you how much they align!
Ex: For `v=[v1,v2]` & `w=[w1,w2]`, `v.w = v1w1 + v2w2`.
Pro-Tip: If `v.w = 0`, the vectors are orthogonal (perpendicular)!

Alright, future engineers!
The **Dot Product** of two vectors gives a scalar, measuring their alignment.
Ex: For `v=[1,2]`, `w=[3,4]`, `v.w = (1*3) + (2*4) = 11`.
Pro-Tip: A zero dot product means the vectors are orthogonal! -

Oh, joy! Another riveting tale of data structures everyone and their grandma has been clamoring to read since 2013. 🥱🔍 Let's dissect these 'practically O(1) appends' like it's the latest episode of 'Keeping Up with the Clojureians'—because who doesn't want a nail-biting cliffhanger to the next blog post on vectors? 💡😂

Alright, future engineers!
A **Linear Combination** is the sum of vectors multiplied by scalars. Ex: `c1*v1 + c2*v2`. Pro-Tip: Think of it as reaching any point in a space using specific directions & scaling them!

Alright, future engineers! The **Dot Product** of two vectors gives a scalar. It's `a · b = a1b1 + a2b2 + ...`. Pro-Tip: It tells you how much one vector aligns with another. Use it for angles & orthogonality!

Flea and tick treatments for dogs and cats may be harming wildlife
Roaming pets are ideal vectors for ticks, fleas and mites. Parasite treatments for pets contaminate the ecosystems.
"The findings suggest everyday pet treatments could ripple through ecosystems in surprising ways. After pets take these medications, the active compounds pass through their bodies and are excreted in feces."

#rasterizing a series of #vectors from #verticies is relatively straight forward in #computer #graphics #programming, but im interested in the opposite. I.e. taking a raster image and extracting a series of vertices from it. I dont want to use a #library to do it, i want to do it by hand programmatically. Anyone got some good #reading material on how i can develop such an #algorithm? Need it for a project i want to do. #Siggraph #compsci #math #geometry #demoscene

Alas, I got busy with commercial an artist neon fabrication jobs again, so I had to pause a little on the personal projects.
We again lost our CNC person at work and now, the new CNC person will be.... ME! I am quite excited to be learning and told my boss I would like to teach others and be just one CNC person rather than the "CNC guy"- I like to go on vacations an road trips.
I have lots of CNC projects AND the CNC takes practice so to build my skills I have top make some personal projects :) With my newfound CNC abilities, I have become interested in watching videos of people making acrylic channel letters. I even gave it a go with some of my torches. Gosh its gonna be fun to put neon in these! I think I am gonna make the word "antifa" in a script krypton (white lightning) crackle tube- an put it in this (or my second or third) acrylic channel letter.Hooray for scraps!
