Solve space and openSCAD are both great options. I have been learning solve space lately and it is great. I couldn't learn freecad, something about the UI and workflow was just too unintuitive for me.
I was burnt by fusion 360. Had some of "my" designs locked in the cloud when they spent 2 weeks and a dozen emails trying to "fix" my educator access. The fix they really wanted was my credit card details. I refuse to use or teach anyone to use that ecosystem now.
Not defending the lack of updates in any way. But you can fix this if you login with a browser and enable all languages in your account settings.
It's crazy. I'm expecting a bunch of forced academic redundancies in April/May. I don't expect her to last a full term, but she will take a lot of others out on the way.
Currently at the Australian National University.
This is too real.
But I like the tannins!
Haha that's amazing. I hope you enjoyed them, the entire concept of never questioning authority (in all meanings) seems to have pitfalls that have trapped too many of today's society into polarising views with no concept of nuance. If more people had read these books the world would probably be a better place.
Now let's just hope Pullman can get the last book out this decade! He better not pull a Robert Jourdan on us!
I assume they disliked the source material. Which is a shame because they are amazing books.
I installed fedora to replace windows on the 31/12/2023. I wasn't a complete Linux noob by any measure but haven't run it as a main OS before. Thank you proton for getting me over the edge.
The whole repo situation on fedora is honestly pretty meh, things are out of date or broken too often. Or they just don't exist. I have put arch on a number of machines since and find it significantly better. My main box will move away from fedora next time I'm enthused to mess with it and this is the primary reason.
Depends if you care about names or about physics. Radio, Infrared Gamma etc are just names we give to various parts of the continuous electromagnetic spectrum. The edges of these definitions are not super well defined. Changing from RF to microwave could be defined at say about 3 GHz, but there is not some clear physical difference between a 2.9 GHz photon and a 3.1 GHz photon other than the frequency change.
The lower limit to the frequency is I guess the inverse of the theoretical age of the universe/2. Something can't currently be oscillating slower than that.
There are some theories on plank length, quantisation limits, etc that might set some theoretical upper limit of photon frequency. But we don't appear to be anywhere close to observing such things. We have seen some rather crazy short wavelength particles that we haven't fully understood.
I feel like this needs to be a PSA pinned to this community. Far too often it would say 2 comments and I would see nothing untill I did this.
You can get close enough in most situations by looking at bolt size, thread pitch and the material. Some level of intuition and knowledge about what each fastener needs to do is also helpful.
Blender has a decent cam processor add-on. Solve space and openSCAD are other very good parametric CAD programs.
