Had to learn FreeCAD last week, and yes, what an embarrassment. For my current work (cnc) you can't really get anywhere without the third-party lib OCL, which they just... fully interface with, but you still have to integrate/inst

Right, I always wanted a career in hell: 1. I think it should be mandatory to have your webcam and microphone on 24/7 for, uh, your safety, especially your children's safety (you never know when a pedophile will hide under your be

What a mess. Eric, I think you will have some explaining and negotiating to do. You might feel like you don't have the time, but this could soon turn existential for your project. For now I keep my order up, I'm sure there's

I'm at the absolute opposite end: Teams was Good Enough when it launched, but declined ever since: you can no longer fullscreen screen share, fat empty margins everywhere in the UI and it nags you about addons and AI stuff.

Reading the comments here: why does every society on this planet produce a group of people that just try to medicate every little inconvenience away without regard for their bodies? It is horrifying. I suppose it is for emotional comfort?

Are you sure that your kids need to be medicated like this during development?

oh it is, look again.

But that still means you are unable to emotionally accept this understanding, that the world is as it is for perfectly logical reasons if you go down deep enough. And no attempt is futile, every act should matter to you.

That sounds strange, but please drill some holes into my argument. I would expect that unhappiness stems from the negative mismatch of one's expectation vs experienced reality. This, to me, implies that they had an unnaturally (and unj

As someone who built an XSLT renderer and remembers having an awful time with the spec: good riddance. Data and its visualisation should be strictly separate, and not require an additional engine in your environment of choice.

Your experience in coding is enough, you need more practice in "problem solving" with crazy ideas and working through them to the finish line. Besides, this is just a thin layer on an LLM, with questionable actual quality. Learn t
