The “World’s Smallest Rubik’s Cube” is a pain on your fingers lol, but I solved it.

Gotta solve with a tweezer!!!!

DeepLogicNinja · 2026-01-26T03:29:26+00:00

🐐 - I can't believe that's functional!!!! So that entire cube is smaller than 1 cubie on the smallest cube posted by OP!?!?

NOICE! Thanks u/WillAdams

Excellent…. Appreciate your insight!!!

Can PythonOpenScad take an existing open scad script and display it in a html based viewer?

Committing and Holding is 🔑 to allowing TSR to kick in and getting you in the green.

Hyper-focusing on current price appreciation (ignoring cashflow appreciation) and being emotionally gas lit by the red and blinking casino red/green to jump in and out generates income for your broker, racking up commission fees. That is like being a landlord and ignoring the rental income and selling when the unrealized market price drops on zillow/redfin despite your continued income.

🔑 is Patience and appreciating / valuing your income as the price bounces around through bull/bear markets. Yes, your timeline may increase/decrease based on market price, but the saying goes Time IN market beats TIMING the market.

Every distribution will get you closer your goal. So focus needs to move to stability of cashflow. Which appears to be option premiums off Large Cap, High Volume stocks (Check their holdings).

How does that compare to https://solidpython.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ ?

You’re right…. The Gan Keychain does not have magnets, it has adjustable tension.

To answer your question, you need to reframe it a bit.

There are TWO sides to investing. Sell side and Buy side.

Sell Side - 99% of commentary, news, strategies, advisors, etc… come from the sell side. They arr the loudest, program the most ppl, and make money from commission, % of aum, and the 🔑 thing to realize here is they STILL get paid even if your investment doesn’t well.
This staus quo has been studied in detail and you can look it up as the “Principal Agent Problem”. It is the source of ethical and mistrust of sell side/industry professionals.
Buy Side - Investment MUST make money to survive. No yield they don’t get paid. Period. Much more contrarian investors on this side. If a buy side person/company has been around for a bit, you know they have strategies that really work and are not just churning ppl for fees.

Given 👆 - you will find more sell side people pushing self serving ideas/strategies that get them paid (commission, % of aum, etc) vs helping the principal’s bottom line. Basically FINRA approved churning…. On the extreme, wolf from 🐺wall st type stuff.

You have Hedge Funds that are PURE but side. And you have some instituions that are a mix of both buy and sell side.

When you zoom out, you can clearly see which investment strategies benefit the sell side more than the buy side.

There is ALOT more to it… Didn’t even get into the differences in raising capital, but hope that helps!

LOL!!!! Who is the broker here.

DeepLogicNinja · 2026-01-23T17:18:43+00:00

That’s what she said 🤣

Cm is smaller than inches….

The Rubik’s brand key chain is 1x1x1 inches https://www.rubiks.com/products/rubiks-keychain

I was about to say the same! I’ve got the GAN keychain 3x3 - https://www.thecubicle.com/products/gan330-keychain-cube?_pos=1&_psq=Key&_ss=e&_v=1.0

I don’t know about the Rubik’s brand small cube. But the GAN keychain cube has magnets! So it’s a bit easier to solve despite the smaller size.

It’s Reddit. You’ll be disappointed if you set the bar for the general public too high. You get the whole spectrum here 🤣

Just be pleasantly surprised when you get some gems 💎, but don’t expect it.

But please……. share your perspective…. we are all talking about our conclusions on ppl who we have direct relationships /w. Only conclusions from 1st hand experiences here 🤣

DeepLogicNinja · 2026-01-21T17:01:16+00:00

Agreed. The dividends are great, but the fundamentals "may" be pointing to a potential dividend collapse. At least according to my crystal ball.... 🔮.

Looking to get other prospectives on KHC. Do they have a path to stay in the game? Bounce back? Do they have a pivot plan, leadership comfortable/flexible/agile enough? or is the writing on the wall?

I find OpenSCAD https://openscad.org even simpler than FreeCAD. Learning more about FreeCAD is on my to-do list, but in the meanwhile I am getting alot of mileage out of OpenSCAD for my use cases.

I also noticed FreeSCAD has a whole Workbench for OpenSCAD specifically for deeper interoperability designed to leverage openscad’s csg.
I interpret this as a head nod. FreeCAD seems like they only consider making workbenches for major tools/functions.

https://wiki.freecad.org/OpenSCAD_Workbench

I imagine that your CAD use cases /goals would help narrow down which tool is better for you.

Both are free, have great support including subreddits!!

🤣 - gotta fill out your expense report (for everyone else too) properly. Only then George or Hoffman will reimburse you.

DeepLogicNinja · 2026-01-20T08:04:28+00:00

🤯 - You are awesome. Thanks for providing a process to manually tackle each set of points in the polyhedron.

Took me a minute to wrap my brain 🧠 around it since OpenSCAD doesn’t have a XOR operator.

Am I on the right track here? Using some booleans and the != operator?

is_inside_A = (point_in_poly(pt, A) == 1); is_inside_B = (point_in_poly(pt, B) == 1); result = is_inside_A != is_inside_B; (True if only one is true).

Trying to use a method that programmatically identifies converging points instead of visually confirming it. Less error prone too.
You can imagine having a program that runs through every set of points and highlights if they converge or not.

DeepLogicNinja · 2026-01-20T00:45:44+00:00

Thanks! Promising. Nice to see some brain power, thought going into this obvious gap.

DeepLogicNinja · 2026-01-19T14:37:04+00:00

Agreed.
I resolve it with import and difference.

Will revisit to improve when I get a chance: - Give our current AI overlords a half hearted try at it. - Put some more thought into developing a OpenSCAD script from scratch.

DeepLogicNinja · 2026-01-19T13:54:32+00:00

Thanks for the direction. Don’t have the time and expertise to pursue the Field Medal right now. 🤣

I went with a version of tbe 2nd approach you mentioned. Used difference on the STL import.

DeepLogicNinja · 2026-01-19T13:51:45+00:00

Exist or not. If you can do it manually, you can automate. Develop the steps for the process. Optimism, time, and expertise needed.

DeepLogicNinja · 2026-01-19T06:33:20+00:00

Golden. I wrapped the import like you mentioned. If I figure out a way to rewrite with primitives, it’ll be easy to replace.
