At work, I have a very knowledgeable colleague who is quite the Linux nerd. I have been moved into their department and I feel like they never had the chance to share all of their accumulated knowledge with someone, so they kinda dump it onto me and every little question has the chance to become a lecture. I am very thankful for it though, because I get learn a ton but sometimes you just wanna get a bool, without learning kernel internals that are absolutely not related to the question



It’s awesome! I used FreeCAD and OpenSCAD before and I think I will stick to solvespace for new projects. FreeCAD is OK but quite buggy and the parametric design is a pain. OpenSCAD is also great and I still use it for some things. I think parametric design is cool, but 99/100 times it is completely unnecessary for me and solvespace made me realize this. I initially disliked being unable to define variables for dimensions (and re-using them) but again it’s often overkill and disrupts the flow quite a bit, so suddenly you would spend hours defining parameters and calculations that you wouldn’t use anyways. TLDR: YAGNI basically. Also, solvespace is pretty :) What about you?
