@syntax.fm @wesbos.com @tolin.ski Great episode about 3D printing! One thing that I found useful to convert 2D pics into printable 3D www.tripo3d.ai
With a bit of pre-preparation (convert pic to playmobil, lego, Minecraft ), the results are pretty good IMO, and one can export to many formats.

Die serbische Polizei setzte die illegale Schallkanone bereits im November 2023 gegen Geflüchtete ein – jetzt wohl auch gegen Demonstrierende in Belgrad. Ein Lehrbuch-Beispiel, wie Gewalt und Repression, die zuerst gegen „Fremde“ gerichtet wird, später nach innen schlägt. birn.rs/srpska-polic...

ES⚡QL token POCs
Spent the evening at the Happylab in Vienna practicing 3D printing tokens with my ES|QL logo variant. Was testing manual color changes with the Prusa MK3s . Every POC had flaws, but that’s how you learn. Test early, learn fast. And have fun!

@davesnider.com ! It‘s been a while since you’ve been fixing some CSS in Discover code. Now I know why. You’re building something nice! 🎉🎊🥳🐲🗡️🤺

Struggling to find team-owned files in a large GitHub repo with certain keywords? I prompted a simple HTML/CSS/JavaScript tool for VSCode & IntelliJ to generate filters & scope using a CODEOWNERS file. Some lovely feedback I got:
"I wish I had known this weeks ago. This will save countless hours!"
