KJam @kjam.bsky.social · 15/06/2026Quick little Forward Kinematics demonstration in Desmos. It's a way to calculate the location of an endpoint after a series of rotations are applied to connected joints. Commonly used in Robotics & in Animation Bone Rigging Systems. You can play around w/ it here: www.desmos.com/calculator/c... 000
KJam @kjam.bsky.social · 16/10/2025Lastly, I think the Wikipedia page on Expression Templates does a good job at explaining how it works & other applications of the technique/pattern (It also uses a 3D Vector example). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Express...en.wikipedia.orgExpression templates - Wikipedia 000
KJam @kjam.bsky.social · 16/10/2025You can see the full source code here, it's all in 1 file: github.com/KaytchJam/si...github.com 100
KJam @kjam.bsky.social · 16/10/20253D Vector class in C++ implemented w/ Expression Templates. The root motivation behind this approach is that you can "lazily evaluate" & compose vectors expressions together, and avoid the redundant loops & memory allocations associated with typical or naive CPU based vector operand implementations. 110

KJam @kjam.bsky.social · 21/07/2025just finished reading this book. would recommend if you have any interest in social and/or economic networks and want a light intro. a majority of the metrics & models (ex: centrality, schelling) are explained with language and images rather than math notation which is nice. 000
KJam @kjam.bsky.social · 20/07/2025I wanna mess with ATProto and the Bluesky API but I'm so ass at networking related stuff 010
KJam @kjam.bsky.social · 19/07/2025unfortunate. the next time we see this agency do something consequential again will probably be... in 4 years lol. 010
KJam @kjam.bsky.social · 19/07/2025they look super pretty. the efficiency losses are unfortunate, but it'd be interesting to see if aesthetics are enough to stimulate adoption. i've always seen the small scale of solar PVs and their capacity to be distributed in urban areas as one of their boons and nice colors could help w/ that 130
KJam @kjam.bsky.social · 17/07/2025wtf. Why would the llm ever lie to me. It said i asked a "great question." It said "absolutely --- you're spot on!" There's no way. 020
KJam @kjam.bsky.social · 16/07/2025only like 3 people will see it... don't worry about it. no, maybe 2 people. trust me. shit, it might even be 1 person. only 1 person will see it. it's the same as ZERO people seeing it. trust me. trust me. 000

KJam @kjam.bsky.social · 27/03/2025well, at least you're an artist as all. i would scarcely consider any prompter an actual artist... at most a commissioner. 000

KJam @kjam.bsky.social · 09/02/2025Just watched Whiplash for the first time. Very intense film. The self-destructive manner in which success (or the pursuit of success/greatness) was portrayed --and whether that destructiveness was necessary in the end -- is probably what sticks out to me most. Good movie 000
