I build interfaces for the web.

Working as a freelance senior consultant web platform engineer with 20 years of experience and happy to go for 20 more.

Now: #elixir, #web-components, #design-systems, #css
Rarely have I been *this* enraged about this kind of decision. With all the - highly infectious - passion you put into your work, I can barely imagine how devastating this must feel.

Someone at Google messed up big fucking time and I sincerely hope you'll find another way/place to do what you did.

According to this new plan, we will now have a delay of merely 75minutes.

Which almost twice the time it would’ve taken me by car to where I am right now. After 4.5h of trävelling wis deutsche bahn.

Same!

I started with fusion and moved to FreeCAD. It's way more keyboard-user friendly, more customisable and less of a resource hog than fusion.

Highly recommend installing the OpenPreferences though, which makes the UI actually bearable.

It's has its quirks, but every tool has those anyway :D

My question would be: when being math-curious, is it a good route to take as a dev? Or does dev-experience not quite matter?
Does it require deeper math knowledge?

fixed!

btw heads up: there'll be a proper update in ~3 weeks - with like, actual features. :)

Oh! I hadn't checked that in a while. That's extremely broken for me as well. Weird! I'll push a quick fix later!

Thanks for letting me know!

German makes this rather clear: “zweckentfremden” (use for a purpose it wasn’t meant for; literally purpose-enstranging; utilize) vs “benutzen” (use).

That’s kinda how I always remember the difference between the too.

I feel like I'll use these two a *lot* in coming experiments.
So convenient!

I love that “sine in” has a sine wave below “sine”. Such attention to detail!
