Here is one path to learn Bayesian starting from basics, assuming modern R path with tidyverse (recommended): First learn some basic probability theory: Peter K. Dunn (2024). The theory of distributions. https://bookdown.org&#x2F

Are you aware of python first libraries like build123d and cadquery? build123d has an improved API over cadquery, excellent docs and no dependency on conda. Best tool for modern parametric python CAD.

There is a large number of html format books on bookdown.org, mostly related to Data Science and R, lots of Bayesian too. There are some more theoretical math books there, one of which I found to be very well written: Theory of Distribution

I am a big fan of roda and especially sequel. Both libraries are masterfully developed and maintained by Jeremy Evans. While roda is very nice and offers some features like routing tree, I could live without it, padrino and rails are good t

Ruby brings me joy of programming. Like this morning, doing a report for year, month and getting the last day of the month is absolute genius: Date.new(year, month, -1) # wow

Where I see potential for using tools as cadquery is with product type configurators which are often part of ERP software aka CPQ (Configure-Price-Quote). Cadquery generated model would be part of the Configure. Of course this wouldn't

Here is one: shafts for power transmission equipment, in our case belt conveyors for bulk material handling. Shafts for pulleys come in all shapes and sizes, ideal use case for code generated models and Cadquery. I'm very excited that

Cadquery is a very nice python only API, based on the OpenCascade, much better API then FreeCAD. So someone looking to make parametric models via code, I think it's the best option out there.

I have been lucky to be able to pick what I want to use, so I pick non-rails stack (Sinatra/Padrino and now Roda + Sequel). No other tool works as half as Sequel. You're gonna have to pry Sequel from my cold dead fingers.

I started learning french at 50 to be an example to my teenage son, encouraging him to learn a second language rather than playing fortnite. It is harder when you are not in french speaking area/country. Everything around us is english

I admire Rich Harris' work as well. 4 years ago I was picking my first SPA framework. Narrowed it down to Ractive and Vue. Picked ractive, it had a beautiful documentation and tutorial. Still have an app in production based on ractive.
