Say that I want to search for the word CRUISE without SHIP or CRUISES. I can add a boolean NOT operator like: cruise -ship -cruises
But ddg seems to take that as a suggestion to return fewer hits for cruises and cruise ships. It doesn’t perceive it as a command to NOT return them
So you seem to get a thousand hits for them instead of ten thousand
(Search terms and numbers were made up to illustrate the point)

- TriangleMesh::BooleanIntersect
- TriangleMesh::BooleanUnion
- TriangleMesh::BooleanSubtract
The version packaged with Ubuntu does not include these functions yet, so last weekend I just successfully compiled from source and linked with my C++ project.
I'm working on some ideas for procedural generation of 3D printing models and these functions with really help me out, I think.

13 followers · 141 posts · Server mastodon.gamedev.placeAnyone know a lob that can process and simplify boolean conditions for my visual scripting tool?
A designers plugs a set of (nested) terms and the lob asks me for the value of terms it absolutely needs, and then gives me the result.
Of course I could just lex it, but I really want something that thinks about performance and stripping impossible paths like the bigshot compilers or IDE assistance tools would.

13 followers · 46 posts · Server mastodon.oeru.orgI wrote this piece a while back partially to explain why I have so many damn blogs. But also just as kind of a thought experiment, possible test for the capabilities of #GPT. @amills I know this isn't at all close to what you're working on, but I'd still be interested in your thoughts.
TLDR is it possible to get a GPT model to classify the types of text that can be evaluated as #boolean statements, vs those that cannot be evaluated in this way?

:turing:
Many computer scientists believe that the problem L versus NP is easier to solve than P versus NP. However, we prove that L = NL if and only if L = NP. In this way, we conclude that a proof for a separation of the complexity classes L and NP is so hard to find as proving that L is not equal to NL.

It would be great if we could search for multiple #hashtags together with #boolean combinations, such as: "#news + #usa", "#food AND #baking", "#carnaval AND NOT #germany"
As its stands people often use multiple hashtags and its not easy to search for the combinations.
Looking at the github it seems someone commented this about a month ago - it seems the functionality is there already in lists, just not available in the search function.

#GeorgeBoole, one of the founders of the computer age and the first Professor of Mathematics at
@UCC, died in Cork #OTD in 1864.
#BertrandRussell, who made efforts to have Boole’s papers printed, said that "An Investigation of the Laws of Thought" as “the work in which pure mathematics was discovered”. In it Boole applied his #boolean mathematics to the philosophy of #Spinoza and others as a practical demonstration.

For example, I do a lot of work with copyright in science. But copyright and science are both huge fields and I care mostly about the intersection. A search for [#copyright AND #science] would be usefully narrow. I'd love to be able to run that search. Even more, I'd love to be able to follow it.
Others must feel the same about [#copyright AND #music] and so on.
