ValeriaHOST
26:01
It's in wording, yeah.
ChadHOST
26:02
Wording or you can't put it in a drawing, you know? You can't draw it down on AutoCAD or...
ChadHOST
26:07
I know.
ChadHOST
26:08
What is it that gives
NickHOST
17:01
It's under the GPLv3, and it is GPU accelerated as well.
NickHOST
17:05
It supports DWG file format, so the AutoCAD format, and also DXF, which is a more open file format for CAD's designs.
NickHOST
17:14
It can, of course, edit these formats and save to these formats as well.
NickHOST
17:17
It handles 3D and 2D with the usual tools that you would expect, although my knowledge of this software is very limited, so maybe it doesn't have everything that Autodesk users might want here.
NickHOST
17:38
You also get an app image on Linux, so it is relatively easy to use.
NickHOST
17:42
They do say it's still under active development, so they ask users to keep backups of their most important files just in case.
NickHOST
17:48
Now, from what I've read from my Patreon subscribers when I talked about this in The Daily News Show, which you can get access to in the description, by the way, uh, they told me that, uh, basically you can't really switch from Autodesk, uh, so from Autodesk software or AutoCAD to something else because you still need a lot of other software to import data from, and that software tends to only run on Windows.
NickHOST
18:10
But if you don't need access to all of that, then you have a pretty strong option, basically.
Shannon KriegerGUEST
33:53
And when you pull the pin out, it goes and it just flops back and forth.
Shannon KriegerGUEST
33:58
So when we did that, And then, you know, Kelly was one of these guys where it's like, oh, you know, AutoCAD.
Shannon KriegerGUEST
34:13
Yeah, let me figure that out real quick.
Shannon KriegerGUEST
34:15
And he starts bringing all these schematics and he would hand me this.
Tim FuGUEST
9:37
And then everything we do becomes a lot more efficient.
Tim FuGUEST
9:40
So, for example, right now we are able to model everything through just describing in Rhino, in AutoCAD, in Revit.
Tim FuGUEST
9:52
And we are enabling the agent to make decisions directly inside the software.
Tim FuGUEST
9:57
right now astra is allowing you to control the screen and doing it by that but we develop our internal plugins inside each of these softwares to control astra and our scaffold agent directly to produce architectural models and plans and renders design decisions directly integrated so that it's a lot more efficient and it's also a lot more um cost effective as well

7 MINS LATER

Tim FuGUEST
17:31
So that's the aforementioned agentic plugins, Astra, and being able to... do the manual work, but digitally on the computer.
Tim FuGUEST
17:43
And then that can naturally be extended logically to BIM modeling process and documentation.
Tim FuGUEST
17:54
For example, boiling down to refining an AutoCAD drawing for, you know, structural, like legally checkpoints and everything all ticked off, making sure that it's completely a legal document for submission.
Tim FuGUEST
18:15
Can we do
MachiavelliGUEST
12:30
And I was getting ready.
MachiavelliGUEST
12:30
I was about to go to AutoCAD class.
MachiavelliGUEST
12:34
And I was taking all these drafting courses and stuff.
MachiavelliGUEST
12:38
Another lifetime Machiavelli.
MachiavelliGUEST
12:43
And it's just regular day.
MachiavelliGUEST
12:44
And then...
MachiavelliGUEST
12:46
it happens i don't it it becomes a thing i get a phone call and my buddy's like yo did you see the plane just hit a building and i was like what and he's like yeah a plane just hit a building and i was like and i was like what what do you mean he's like in new york and so i go turn back to the tv i change the channel and boom there it is and i was like oh and i was like well damn i was like i'm about to be late to class i was like what is going on and i didn't even think much about it and then we get to school We get to school, and I'm in AutoCAD class, and the teacher comes in, and everybody's already kind of at work.
MachiavelliGUEST
13:19
Like, we would get in there and get started.
Lance CaykoHOST
7:19
all culminating in a digital imitation of a piece of paper, but it gets better.
Lance CaykoHOST
7:24
Autodesk has Revit and AutoCAD and Civil 3D and Inventor and Novusworks and 3ds Max and Autodesk Construction Cloud, an impressive ecosystem of software products.
Lance CaykoHOST
7:35
Many apparently designed to solve the problem that the other Autodesk software products created.
Lance CaykoHOST
7:40
Civil engineers modeled the site in simple 3D.
Phil WileyGUEST
50:58
Comparing themselves to other people, because we all learn at a certain pace, because sometimes you may see this person is really killing it on Hack the Box or CTFs, and maybe you're not doing so well.
Phil WileyGUEST
51:09
One of the lessons I like to share was before I got into IT or cybersecurity, I went to trade school to learn AutoCAD.
Phil WileyGUEST
51:18
And when I went in there, I had like the worst computer skills out of all my classmates.
Phil WileyGUEST
51:22
But by the time I got out in the industry, the places I worked at, my computer skills were far superior than my peers.
Andrew AnagnostGUEST
8:40
Carol Bartz did this, okay? Carol Bartz set up this team.
Andrew AnagnostGUEST
8:43
We were butting up against the, the big established t- part of the company that was really built on top of the core product that the company started with, which was called AutoCAD, the name that most people know.
Jeff BermanHOST
8:52
Mm-hmm.
Andrew AnagnostGUEST
8:52
Right? And it was kind of an exciting period.
Mark MungeamGUEST
10:50
You have to know about agronomy.
Mark MungeamGUEST
10:52
You have to know about planning and AutoCAD and design.
Mark MungeamGUEST
10:56
Uh, it just, it goes, obviously you have to know about golf and golf strategy and all that too, but it's, um, it's a very broad base of, of information that you kind of have to filter through and, and to be able to come up with the designs that you do.
Leighton WalkerHOST
11:11
Yeah.
Matt BushGUEST
1:18
Yeah, probably CAD back in the '80s.
Matt BushGUEST
1:22
I mean, uh, yeah, my dad was a draftsman growing up, and we actually had AutoCAD at our house, and I can remember the first PC I got in high school, like he loaded AutoCAD on it, and I just got obsessed with it.
Matt BushGUEST
1:34
And I actually wound up teaching that portion of our drafting class in college because I knew more about AutoCAD than the instructor did.
Matt BushGUEST
1:40
So it was, uh, it was kinda my first foray into technology.
Greg ToroosianHOST
1:44
Awesome.
