I'm similar with 20+ years of experience with Autodesk products so freecad was (and often still is) frustrating for me because I know what I need to do but don't know the freecad ways. Claude has been very helpful when I give it the context of my experience because it relates the Autodesk way to the freecad way in its explanations.

They have not. 2G networks have been shut down, however.

It's not plans/drawings, but worth mentioning the Pretty Good House framework: https://www.prettygoodhouse.org/

My work has taken me to a refinery a few times. It always made me very uneasy being in a place where they taught us to back in to parking spaces in orientation and there are "explosion proof" shelters in various places. Having watched US Chemical Safety Board videos doesn't help either.

I mod a few small subs, there does not appear to be a way for mods to shadowban. I believe it's only Reddit that has the capability.

I gave up on my rocketbook for this reason. Cleaning the pages with isopropyl alcohol helps, but even it doesn't bring the pages back to how well they worked when new.

Ask HN: What do I need to think about before going to work for a startup?

Most of my career has been in construction management. I'm soon interviewing with a slightly related SaaS company who I would classify as a startup. This isn't a world that I have any experience in, what things should I be considering and aware of?

Neat site. I've been looking for more static site inspiration and this one has a wholesome approach.
