    It is really sad to see them leave. They were one of the best open source citizens I know. We only have 1.0 today because of them (and many other contributors).

    I was always sceptical about them having a valuable business model. And I thought they’d have bigger pockets. Becaue IMO FC/Ondsel is only now starting to get usable enough for anyone whose time is measured in $ per hour. Paying 1000 $ for a license is not much, if it saves your worker only 1 hour each week. Just yesterday I had troubles importing a step file into FC. Some worked two didn’t. Ondsel could import them. That’s when I read the sad news…






  • “This finding places the theorem among other probability puzzles and paradoxes… where using the idea of infinite resources gives results that don’t match up with what we get when we consider the constraints of our universe,”

    No shit. The “infinite monkey theorem” doesn’t hold true witout infinity.

    The result is something every interested high school student could come up with.
