I know of an OpenSCAD alternative called CadQuery, but as the name suggests, it's still CAD focused. I wonder if scripting Blender itself would get you closer to what you're looking for.

I find this article confusing. It's about "measures to reduce our economic vulnerability to American antagonism", but I can't see how improving the legal system or adding platform doors to the TTC are related to that. Perhaps the author is confusing economic resilience with economic stimulus?

I feel like she's trying hard to distance herself from Trudeau, but after years being right beside him, I doubt she can shake it that easily.

Note the article is from two months ago, on October 10, but it's still relevant. I was confused when I saw Chrystia Freeland quoted.

You can only pardon someone who was convicted of a crime.

I don't believe that's true. See the pardon of Richard Nixon, who was never even impeached, let alone charged. I believe there's some debate on the validity of such a pardon, but none (including Nixon's pardon) have been challenged in court.

Excuse me, that was Finn's right arm.

The comic was released the day after the election, by an author who lives in the United States. I suspect the comic is explicitly about American politics.

everyone should know how to read/write/type the capital omega because of electrical resistance

I've noticed that, if an equation calls for a number squared, they usually really mean a number multiplied by its complex conjugate.

I’m sure plenty of pedestrians have been killed by cyclists.

I did some quick searching and found 2019 data from Europe. In all of the EU that year, bicycles killed 19 pedestrians while cars killed 3200 pedestrians. Over 168 pedestrians killed by a car for each killed by a bicycle. I know there are plenty of irresponsible cyclists, and yet they are still a tiny fraction as dangerous as a driver.

Nostr, another federated social media protocol, kind of like ActivityPub (which we're using right now), but different.

Yes, but not all clients expose dependent tasks (which is sadly a common issue with open standards: they aren't always properly implemented). I'm using Tasks.org on my phone (which supports dependent tasks), synchronizing to a Nextcloud server with the Tasks app (which supports dependent tasks now, ~~but didn't for a long time~~), which also syncs to Thunderbird (which does not appear to show dependent tasks as dependents).

Edit: remembered that the Nextcloud Tasks app has long supported dependent tasks. I was thinking of recurring tasks, which it does not support. Again, open standards aren't always fully implemented.
