Re:Ask HN: Will the Apple Vision Pro only allow app-store apps? on Thursday June 08, 2023 @07:23AM (#36240048)
I think it will be locked down and they will have a very beneficial offer for developers in order to lock them down too. VR/AR doesn't have killer apps yet, developer's ideas will decide who wins the race.

Recently I've read a lot of articles how digital twins are the future of urban planning. I see that it may helps decision making in a way but I fail to understand why there aren't many cities using them already. I'm coming from the game industry and I can see that everything is available to create digital twins in a scalable way, google earth 3d data, mapbox data, public data, etc. It almost...

Thanks :) At first we just wanted to make our remote days a little more fun then realised it's actually a lot of fun. We had some good feedback from other teams and also a couple of remote tutors but it's still a big question if people would replace collaboration tools for a "game"

Similar but I would rather go with a 2D environment where people can zoom in/out and navigate like it was a huge miro board

Ask HN: Opinion on mind palace-like file management?

I've been thinking a lot lately about how we can improve the way we organize and find files on our computers. One idea that I've been considering is a mind palace-like solution, where users can visualize their files as objects in a virtual space or on a canvas and easily navigate to them using their memory.I'm curious to know what people think of this idea.

Windows Explorer and search has a lot of complains of being slow and unconvenient still everyone is using it on a daily basis.

Hey HN,After struggling a lot with windows explorer and file management as it is, I've started to rethink how this should work.The basic idea is that placing files in folders and navigating in them is not logical.

We've just launched a site 3D scanned realistic human characters for indie developers. Our first head scan has just been uploaded, we're going to extend the library with 5 full body models each and every week!
