Looking for a strong Python engineer to build AI features end to end, from rapid prototype to production and the evaluation that keeps them honest. Join the engineering of 22 and company of almost 100 located all over the world. Note, AI experience is a plus, but not required.
You can apply on the site, but the best way is to send me an email: [email protected]. No cover letter needed, send me your resume, Linkedin (if you have one), just a single sentence on why you're interested in the role (optional).
Those are very good suggestions, thank you! I sell more of the physical holders than the digital ones anyway, so perhaps the artboard and digital files aren't as helpful as I thought they were.
https://toolwallhq.com - Digital organizer for your physical tools. I used to have a hard time keeping my shop organized, so I jumped in and came up with a solution that has worked for me so far and perhaps might help you.
The idea is you use the digital artboard to visualize your tools on the wall and then buy the holders to mount it on your workshop wall.
There seems to be a growing overlap between programming and woodworking for whatever reason. I could go on about the similarities, but after hours of staring at the screen, we sometimes want to make things with our hands and woodworking helps me do that. If you're looking to get started, I can't recommend visiting a local makerspace enough.
> Part of me wonders about the feasibility of an open source business based around paid support and training of a complex professional tool. I know of cases this works for tools aimed at software engineers, but I’d be curious if that was really attempted with CAD
Solidworks isn't open source, but they provide support and training. So it's possible of open source business to do the same.
Fusion supports a wide range of use case from CAD to CAM and others. None of open source tools (FreeCad, OpenSCAD, Opencad etc.) come close to matching Fusion's features. I don't think most even support CAM which I need for CNC tool paths.
As someone who uses and relies on Fusion for work, it's frustrating how customer hostile Autodesk is. And this is on top of their subscription price increase they announced in March.
A part of me wants to reimplement the tool holders for ToolWall[1] in OpenSCAD[2] and be done with it with Autodesk forever.
Yes you're right. In the Github link in the post, that's what they do as well. It helps to a small degree, but it's not nearly enough data for building an analytics app.
I was hoping there would be a dataset that would follows real world patterns vs whatever I generate from my understanding of the api.
I generally takes notes when it's something that I want to remember. Sometimes just the act of writing it down helps you remember better. I try to do spaced repetition occasionally to help me remember the most important things.
It really depends what your goals are. Do you really want to remember every single thing you learn? Then be like SuperMemo founder and capture everything and do spaced repetition.
Checkout highscalability.com, used to have lots of real word scalability issues and solutions back on the day.
If you want hands on experience, pick an open source app in the language you know and deploy it somewhere and load test till it breaks and see which part breaks first. It could be your load balancer can’t handle that many connections or you app server rubs out of memory or the db comes to a crawl. The more real world you can make load test queries the better.
Some very good ideas in there that I haven't come across. Another great DIY idea I didn't see there was gluing top of mason jar to bottom of a wood plank so you can screw/unscrew the jar. I use this for storing screws and other small things.
If you're interested in this sort of thing and don't want to build your own, I'm working on https://toolwallhq.com that exactly solves this.
Second that for a menu bar. Something to quickly glance up to see if I'm talking too much. PS, just downloaded, looks promising! Will try it and let you know.
And when I clicked 'Saved', it took long enough for me to think was it broken? There were no spinners or any visual feedback. So it was bit of UI and UX issues.
I don't know what the limitations of SurveyMonkey were, but it was generous enough I didn't have to pay for it. I send occasional survey for my business: https://toolwallhq.com, but not nearly enough I couldn't use SurveyMonkey. I think my last survey got <100 responses.
I see you are already using tailwind, recommend upgrading to tailwindui and improving from there.
Hi there, congrats on finishing while having a full time job! As someone who recently used SurveyMonkey and hated it, I really wanted to like it, but it was bit laggy and the UI was confusing at times. Also allowing only 10 responses in free trial makes it very limiting.
Thank you! I originally had the video in the hero, but few non tech people gave me feedback that it was confusing, so I put list of holders on top. Any thoughts on how I spruce it up?
