My Baby is Becoming a Monster
A few days ago in this space I wrote a phrase typical of the "bit of attitude" we try to bring to CAD reporting. I noted that the purchase of Seemage allowed Dassault Systemes to continue its pursuit of "proprietary 3D for all." Which, while historically true of Dassault, isn't really true at all when it comes to 3DLive, the 3D data viewer DS acquired in the Seemage acquisition; 3DLive reads many CAD formats. (Astute regular readers will notice the gratituous use of a semi-colon in the previous sentence, just to confound the amateurs in the audience.)
Anyway, Evan Yares (at his blog) jumped on the phrase "proprietary 3D for all" like a cat jumps on a mouse. He put it on a T-shirt that you can purchase. I've already ordered mine; you should do the same. If my baby (the phrase I wrote) is growing up to become a monster, at least we need to feed it. I intend to wear it for at least a few minutes at COFES, even if it does mean dressing down a bit at my favorite industry event. After all, I'm a journalist, no one expects me to dress to any particular standard. Buy your own shirt by following this link.
