Are you experiencing quantum coupling?

Why does this cat look so much like my very alive Holstein ketteh?

No crusts, eh?

I ate 'em when I was a kid, but will he?

Doesnā€™t science sometimes need a dose of engineering too? :smiley: What about spending the night on OpenSCAD and its handling from commandline, and DXF exports and their handling by custom-written scripts so the parts can be converted to polylines (done), resized and moved around and assembled from several DXF files to one (done), and prepared for a cutting run on the atrocious MoshiDraw software? (Should I publish the code now even if it is not entirely polished yet and the rotation function is missing?)

ā€¦and where to get time to hanging that almost-finished rack shelf? (How would you like a wall-mounted adapters made from off-the-shelf shelf supports and L-shaped steel pieces with drilled-and-tapped M6 holes to which you can attach a 19" rack-mount switch/router/whatever?)

If you forget to ever upload it, would the world be a poorer place?

[I think the answer is yes?]

Gentlemutants, is this not how it is done?

Why have I waited so long to join the fun? Was I really that afraid of the time sink?

Were you afraid youā€™d be questioned? Afraid youā€™d find answers?

Are you thinking of it in terms of right or wrong? Is it not the question that drives us?

Is there a spoon?

Or is this just cod philosophy?

Were those trick questions?

Did I say fear was right or wrong? Arenā€™t you putting your own judgement on it?

Isnā€™t that up to you? Itā€™s like the tree on Dagobah, where you get out what you bring in, isnā€™t it?

That was a tree? Why have I thought it was a cave all this time? Is it because Yoda says ā€œremember the caveā€?

Did you mean to invoke Yoda, the question-master resident there?

If the line of questioning continues in this unhooked manner, may I say Iā€™ve haddock?

So, here it is:

Beware, the thing is still hot and the edges are sharp and I am discovering new and new bugs as I run it on real tasks (there will be a demo for workflow illustration later).

Isnā€™t engineering fun? :smiley:

(ā€¦also, why does the software for oscilloscopes have to be lousy enough to force me to learn python and cook up my own data acquisition app for my Rigol scope?)
