<p>There’s not many free as in open source alternatives out there. There’s traditional CAD such as Fusion 360 which gives you a limited amount of designs and is “free” for non-commercial use.<p>So then under the open source, own your designs umbrella you have stuff like FreeCAD which is similar to traditional CAD which means you have a learning curve.<p>OpenSCAD is programmatic which suits someone with a software engineering background. Plus being free in the sense of owning your designs.</p>

<p>If you want to watch a film similar to these themes, check out Playtime from 1967 by Jacques Tati. Something I watched recently.<p>Playtime works wonderfully as a cinematic satire of contemporary society and our roles.<p>The film's office scenes are particularly striking because they visualize the dehumanizing aspects of modern office design that cubicle farms would later become notorious for - the uniformity, the loss of privacy despite physical separation, and the way architecture can make people behave more like components in a machine than individuals.<p>The thing about Playtime is the constant onslaught of appropriate explorations on the theme of an increasingly technical life.<p>By the time the end of Playtime rolls by, what you get is an examination of what it is like to be human and hopefully you feel a sense of joy in being a part of the human race.</p>

<p>In the function signature, the return variable err is type error. Since it is named it is also defined and initialized as nil.<p>In the code, an error is found and it does not assign a value to err and just returns it as the error value.<p>So it returns nil as the error when it wants to return an error with a proper value.<p>The code should be something like:<p><pre><code>    if ctx.Err() != nil {
      return 0, 0, ctx.Err()
    }</code></pre></p>

Wireless and it just works. Economical as well with the cartridges.<p>For photo quality I just use the local pharmacy.</p>

<p>It makes “sense” based on the domain of the cloud provider being DevOps teams who are maintaining and using these CLI tools. Ie.
