You should still keep doing the bottom-up approach for the rest of the docs. Just update the README first paragraph or two as the gp says.
Highly recommend `fd` for the sheer speed:

Yeah, I'm curious too because I've been following all 3d printer news lately and only news re: Snapmaker is that they officially hired Ratdoux who came up with the full spectrum printing and they're integrating it into Snapmaker Orca.
Orca really needs a plugin system so that we don't get so many forks. I want full spectrum, wave overhangs, Snapmaker customizations for their printers, Sovol customizations for theirs. I also want the latest Orca nightly. So that's 5 different forks of Orca a good plugin system could replace.
Depends on your budget but I am extremely happy with Snapmaker U1. I print with ASA, PETG, and TPU. It prints PLA very well by default. It runs klipper, gives you full SSH with root. I installed paxx12's extended firmware using a USB flash drive -

There was more than enough skepticism and cautious optimism too. While it sounded too soon to be real, it wasn't unlike carbon nanotubes, graphene, or solid state batteries — previously unachievable material-tech getting validation in the lab, with a 20yr pipeline for global production. With even nuclear fusion being achieved in very specific / limited instances in the last decade, it's not inconceivable to hope that maybe RTSC are just around the corner.
> Sidenote: Flash's scripting language, ActionScript is also directly responsible for the generational design of Java-ahem-ECMAScript later on, also TypeScript too.
I feel like I am the only one who absolutely loved ActionScript, especially AS3. I wrote a video aggregator (chime.tv[1]) back in the day using AS3 and it was such a fun experience.

I did and it is amazing for someone with just mild 40s hearing issues. Took a bit of effort and updates to run the hearing test for AirPods Pro 3. Turns out I connected over Bluetooth when I should’ve paired them the Apple/iOS way.
The live listening mode is very good. I can hear my kid trying to quietly walk past 10pm :) There are a lot of features however you cannot selectively choose to lower / raise certain frequencies. I wish it had an equalizer I could use.
The ANC is fantastic, sometimes
I even forget fans around me are on. Only issue is that when I use live listen mode and everything is super clear, people still treat me like I’m using full noise cancellation.
I've been using a QNAP TBS-464 [1] for 4 years now with excellent results. I have 4x 4TB NVMe drives and get about 11TB usable after RAID. It gets slightly warm but I have it in my media cabinet with a UPS, Mikrotik router, PoE switches, and ton of other devices. Zero complaints about this setup.
The entire cabinet uses under 1kwh/day, costing me under $40/year here, compared to my previous Synology and home-made NAS which used 300-500w, costing $300+/year. Sure I paid about $1500 in total when I bought the QNAP and the NVMe drives but just the electricity savings made the expense worth it, let alone the performance, features etc.

Augment Code (
https://www.augmentcode.com/) extension in VSCode. The remote agent feature is fantastic and the local agent is worth buying credits for. I've tried almost every AI editor (Cursor, Windsurf, Roo/Cline etc.), tried CLI-based coders (Claude Code, Aider, Codex etc.), and have used them all with ton of useful MCPs and in the end, I've had the best results with Augment.
If the CLI tool does IO with the agentic CLI tool of choice over STDIO, then it's MCP by definition, with the only caveat being that it runs locally on each user's machine instead of a server. For dev-teams, CLI would work but for non-coders, web-apps or Slack-channel with LLM/MCP integration would be better.
TL;DR: Move your .git folders out of ~/Code into ~/Git/[reponame]. Use ln -s or plain text .git file[1].
I have my code folders in Dropbox on OSX but I believe my process should work for you. I work in node and have a number of monorepos with nested node_modules folders. I run my idempotent dev-files.command script [2] with or without "--nono" in any monorepo and it handles the entire git aliasing and dropbox folder ignore for node_modules process. I use --nono if I ever need to clear out all of the node_modules and do a fresh pnpm install.

Same with Augment. Indexing makes a huge difference in a large monorepo and I can't imagine working in an editor that doesn't support an LLM with full indexing.

I haven’t tried Timefold but did try a ton of solvers (local and web) a few years ago when trying to optimize MRP schedule. One of the hardest parts was converting my business logic into constraints, especially date based calculations.
Instead of explicit constraints, is there a way to provide a calculation that can be minmaxed? If every order has a due date, can I say +/- 3 days = 0, 7 early = 9999 (not allowed), 7+ days late = (days late)^2?
Please email me (in profile) if you want to discuss.
I recently learned that there are two views:
https://www.reddit.com/r/ParallelView/ vs
https://www.reddit.com/r/CrossView/And there is definitely a difference between them. If you try to view a cross view image using parallel view, it will look weird and not be easy to focus. Maybe the egg crate image was different?
Here's a quick test: https://i.redd.it/g5ilwgk99r781.jpg
Parallel view is easy for me but it takes a bit of effort for me to see cross view. For cross view, I start by looking cross-eyed at my nose and then try to see the image without fully uncrossing my eyes.
Not a non-profit but Ubisoft has been doing significant 3D scanning and sharing (unsure under what license) for their Assassins Creed franchise:
https://mocapsolutions.com/blogs/news/assassin-s-creed-unity...I haven’t played all the games but the recent ones I tried had a historical tour mode where you get to explore day-in-the-life of an Ancient Greek city or Viking village, with people going about their routines working, trading, farming, gathering. With VR it would be the closest thing to time travel we currently have.
And they do have many of the historical landmarks in pretty stunning detail, with drapes and paintings of what it most probably looked like back then.
I learn on and off the job. Everyone benefitted including my past employers when I learned on the job. They weren’t paying me to perform based on my existing knowledge. They were paying me to solve problems and if that meant I needed to learn a new tech or skill, that was their cost of doing business.
I have a number of young devs working for me and I give them the same advice. None them knew how to handle sessions using JWT tokens, use pgvector, or run our containers on Fly.io when they were hired. They learned it on the job, on the clock, and I am so proud of them for it.
I’ve been learning since early 90s and have frankly forgotten more than I remember but none of that matters. What matters to me is if you can solve problems, even if you need a bit of guidance and coaching from others. If your current employer doesn’t feel that way, I hope you can find one that does someday. It is why I am still coding three decades later.
I think it also has to do with how many devices you have on it and how often they update state. I have 300+ IP devices and have to run it on a mini PC because RPi was too slow. No custom plugins or extensions, just a few basic integrations.
I can vouch for Lookeen (circa 2012-2015). I set it up for 200+ users on Citrix and it worked great. I had the index for each user saved to their network share and yet the search was instant. It even indexed shared mailboxes. It barely used any CPU when doing background indexing.
It worked well with thin OSTs too but due to how Outlook and Exchange work, it would have to rebuild the index more often.
Definitely a blast from the past reading the word “Lookeen” but mostly good memories about it. I believe the ADMX integration was pretty decent too.
Long ago, I implemented that by pragma no-cache and checking the referrer. It wasn’t perfect but it worked for most users.
Absolutely. Pallet arrangements are usually a required spec from the customer to the vendor. The arrangement order matters considerably for shipping and needs to be agreed upon beforehand.
Exactly. It was also my first real job as an IT manager, and I had just setup my first business wifi network for use with a shiny new Windows mobile scanner. So it definitely made me question if I was cut out for it.
I left the company last year, having grown to 700+ employees in pharmaceutical manufacturing, a far-cry from my one-man IT department for 20 employees making shampoo. And while there were many, many weird issues over the years, none was ever so satisfying to resolve.
I had a similar experience about shipping pallet being fully loaded fixing server connectivity issues almost two decades ago:

Web and modern tech can be fantastic if you take away the dark patterns. The UX for booking a flight isn't complex because reserving a seat or taking your card is difficult. It's complex because low margin businesses like airlines can make more money up-selling extra legroom or travel insurance.
Take away the dark patterns and incentive to eek every last dollar from the user and the entire web can be neal.fun.
> 1) Health insurance is already required to pay out at least 90% of your contributions, so even a hypothetically perfectly efficient replacement could only eliminate 10% of costs, all things equal.
All things remaining same, yes. But all things won't remain same because the incentives would be completely different. The 10% rule has incentivized the entire industry to raise their prices so that 10% will be worth more each quarter. Private insurance would rather have insulin at $1000/mo instead of $10/mo so that they can take $100 instead of $1 and they would rather collect $2000/mo in premiums than $200/mo. Medicare, on the other hand, can and should negotiate prices down: https://www.cms.gov/inflation-reduction-act-and-medicare/med...
