I'd like to share an incredible FOSS project known as BOLTS: it's a slowly growing database of tech specs for design and construction, started by an OpenSCAD dev who wanted standard bolts and washers. It now has all standardised EU/AU structural steel profiles in an agnostic backend powering #OpenSCAD, #FreeCAD, and #NativeIFC software like the #BlenderBIM Add-on.
There is ongoing work to extend the database with architectural dimensions, US/Indian profiles, and more.
Join this free #IFC #crashcourse learning about #python, #blender3d #BlenderBIM, IFC Schema, & how to write scripts & build a data app.

Sneak preview of something new and exciting for #sxmo: voice control using #numen! Control your linux smartphone with short efficient voice commands, fully local, and runs on a #pinephone!
I'm really good at making typos so I revisited the text-completion support in #phosh's osk-stub and added a completer based on the #presage library and trained it with a German text from @gutenberg_org and was surprised how well that works. 1/2

Nice new features of the #HelixEditor in 22.08. Not yet catching up with nvim, but soo much easier to configure. https://helix-editor.com/news/release-22-08-highlights/
Why is choice(seq(A, B), seq(A, C))
different than seq(A, choice(B, C)).
I understand the later is better and the tree is somehow different, but the result should be the same.
Hm have I just given me the answer, since in #treesitter the tree IS probably the result?
Beeing proud of myself because i ran into a #parser conflict the first time in my #treesitter project at work. No idea whats the problem, but motivated to solve this.
Had to tell fedi because nobody cares anyway ^^.

Please, feel free to download, share with your photography-loving friends (or anyone else who wants to know the position of the sun, moon, and milky way), and please don't forget to give me some feedback on what you think or what is annoying 😅.
If you have a #Librem5 or #PinePhone it would be awesome if you could send me a screenshot.
Big thanks to @Suzie97 for offering your help and drawing most of the icons.
#askfedi there are a couple of new #pager in #rust, like #rust-pager or #streampager, but they don't seem to be very active. Is there a nice alternative, that is a more or less good alternative?
📢 Are you passionate about #opensource Finite Element Analysis #FEM/#FEA accessible to mere mortals ? Come help us improve the #FreeCAD FEM workbench! The main dev 'bernd' is on a hiatus and we'd love others to step up to continue the amazing work that's been done. #volunteers
