  • I live in high humidity, so that’s a big part of my setup. I print from a custom dryer with 4 spools in it, which feed to the printer through PTFE bowden tubes. I have a wifi switch for the dryer that just turns on once in a while to keep the ones sitting there from getting wet by keeping the inside of the dryer, well, dry. I store all my filament in containers with a 3d printed silica containers that go into the spool. I use the “rechargeable” silica beads that change color when saturated. Once in a while, when I see that the beads are turning blue in the containers from opening and closing, I will do a drying session where I dry all the silica containers and the spools for a good while and put them all back into the containers. Can be a bit overkill, but it fully eliminates that factor for me!

    Right! I was just doing it out of memory, but there’s many other weird ones. I was looking this up many years ago after an Iranian friend told me it’s hop hop there. I remember that for dog, rooster, and I think maybe also pigs and cows, there was wide variation across the world. But for cats, meow was really consistent across most languages. I might be wrong, it’s been a while.

    So that’s funny, but you know what I seriously find to be very strange? How different the onomatopoeias for a dog’s bark (well, any common animals sound) are in different languages. Here are the ones I know from experience, done kinda phonetically in English: American English: woof woof Brazilian Portuguese: ow ow (au au) Farsi: hop hop




  • Ah thanks for letting me know about Rx Resume! Great resource, and actually solves the last mile problem (creating the document) of my little personal app. I am a bit of a jack of all trades, so I made a little database for the resume where the lowest level item (the little bullet points in the experience) can have tags attached to them. So I might describe the same job/experience in multiple ways depending on who the audience is, and then filter for the tags to only get the bullet points that are relevant for that position and generate a resume.

    Now instead of going into some whole slog of coding document generation, I can just export that bit as JSON and import into Rx Resume! Thanks again!




  • Ah thanks! I am working with .NET, and I was surprised how there’s little out there in terms of (open source) libraries for LaTex (I did some research since this comment). I might end up going with docx via the OpenXML API. Also, I haven’t really used LaTex before (has been on on my learning to-do list), and once I started messing with some templates, I realized I need to learn a lot more first.

    One thing with my documents is that find and replace alone won’t work, as I need to replace some patterns. I am generating resumes, so I need to take something like a pattern for a job, and then repeat it several times
