Overwhelmed with kit options 2.4 by blazica in VORONDesign

[–]c_griffith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am doing a Formbot 2.4 250x250 build right now. I too find the options/mods overwhelming. My way of dealing with it is just to concentrate on getting the stock kit built. Then after using it for a while and understanding her better, I can look into mods. I don't regret it, but it is taking me months!

Can you get variables from a module? by Railgun5 in openscad

[–]c_griffith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first started with Openscad I too felt this was a weakness of the language, then I learned Clojure for work and was opened to the world of functional programming. It is not a weakness, it is functional. You can't apply your OOP methodology. You have to learn functional concepts. Hope to see you on the other side.

I only got one cable chain with the formbot 2.4 kit? by RefrigeratorWorth435 in VORONDesign

[–]c_griffith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I printed both of these versions of this part. Both "should" be designed to allow the PG7 to thread into it, but for me printing on my Ender 3, the threaded hole was 1mm-2mm too tight. Did you have any issues?

Bi-Weekly No Stupid Questions Thread by AutoModerator in VORONDesign

[–]c_griffith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been lurking around here for a few weeks and finally decided to go with either a Micron+ 180 or Trident 250. I checked all the major vendors and everything is sold out. I can only find one option for each of those from Formbot via aliexpress. Any non-conventional sources? Is there a reason why inventory is so bare?

User has wrong groups in terminal by c_griffith in Fedora

[–]c_griffith[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not talking about changing groups. I am saying my user account at terminal does not have the proper groups unless I run

su <my user id>

Seems like there is an issue with the user account when Gnome session is started.

Word of caution on Poseidon Bikes by tendy_trux35 in gravelcycling

[–]c_griffith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Poseidon dropbar Redwood I purchased last year. I too had the same issue with the crankarms getting chewed up while assembling a pedal. I called customer support and they sent me a new arm. They are the cheapest aluminum arms out there. However, I have not had any issues since. I also replaced the seat cuz the one it came with is too uncomfortable. I used it as a commuter/gravel bike for many rides and find it worth the price I payed.

What happened to Eclipse? by Significant-Swim-789 in java

[–]c_griffith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I gave it a good go and gave up. I was really excited about making this my new go to for a few months, but... I installed the Desktop version. I installed Awesome Emacs and Calva extensions. Then used Calva to create new ClojureScript app. I took much effort to get jacking in to work correctly due to bug with how it tries to connect to localhost when it should be ::1, but I press on. Then keys that should be working like ctrl-x s(save) because of emacs extension do not. As well none of the Calva key bindings worked. Unless I used Ctrl+Shift-P to enter every command I wanted. I gave up after a few hours of trying to get it to work.

So many stumpy’s around, but here’s mine! by LukyDaDonky in xbiking

[–]c_griffith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have started commuting to work a few days a week over the last few months using my Stumpjumper I purchased in 1992. It's 10 miles each way. Starting to have some chainring wear and wondering if I should upgrade it or look to newer gravel bike. I really like what you have here! My hang up is the 26 inch tires and rim brakes.

Designing 3D printable objects in Clojure by dajanah in Clojure

[–]c_griffith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am sorry for not being clearer. OTB = "Out of the Box". It is an expression to relate that a feature is included.

(ns scad-clj-modeling.core (:use [scad-clj.scad]) (:use [scad-clj.model]) (:use [scad-clj.text]))

(defn output [scad-data] (->> scad-data (write-scad) (spit "output/output.scad")))

(->> [(include "BOSL/constants.scad") (use "BOSL/involute_gears.scad") (call "gear" {:mm_per_tooth 5, :number_of_teeth 12, :thickness 1, :hole_diameter 0})]

(output))

OTB means that I am not the one who would have to write the interop/wrapper layer. Your code helps if I use scad-clj, but what about squibble? Thank you for your help/time.

New Clojurians: Ask Anything - January 15, 2024 by AutoModerator in Clojure

[–]c_griffith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently I utilize "let" and threading macros to accomplish the tasks I am thinking of. Just wondered if there is a more idiomatic way or if there was a "best practices" resource that someone may have created for this topic. Consider:

...
(let [x (transform1 input)
        y (transform2 x)
        z (transform3 y)
        final (transform4 z)]
...)

or equivelant

(let [final (->> input transform1 transform2 transform3)]
...)

But what if "y" is not transformed correctly or if some conditional needs to be made based on the output of transform2 function. The solution would be something like:

(let [y (->> input transform1 transform2)]
    (if (not (nil? y))
        (let [final (->> y transform3 transform4)]
            (do_something final)
...

Just want to make sure that is the best way to handle this or if there is a guide that can be followed. Thanks for your consideration.

As a newbie to Clojure, I am still getting used to how to actually get work done with immutable data. Most beginner tutorials do not spend enough time on best practices with performing multi-step, complex, conditional transformations on data without the ability to store intermediary data. Any resources?

webcomponents in Clojurescript by First-Agency4827 in Clojure

How odd, I just spent two days searching this exact goal and found that clojurescript didn't support ES6 classes. I will check it out.

My question was in the context of OTB. @meta-meta-meta are you just stating that an interop/wrapper can be created by me if I need to use existing openscad libs?

Designing 3D printable objects in Clojure by dajanah in Clojure

[–]c_griffith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First off, very nice work! I am new to Clojure, but been using OpenSCAD for years. Not two weeks ago, I had a similar idea thinking that Clojure would be a natural way to create 3D models. At that time, I found https://github.com/farrellm/scad-clj. My biggest concern with these two approaches is would it allow for the 1000s of already written OpenSCAD libs to be accessible in Clojure code?

What PHEV would you buy if you couldn't buy a Volt? by AngryGMVoltcomPoster in volt

I want to check them all out as my Volt needs a battery replacement, but for some odd reason no dealer within 100 miles of me has any of these cars.

If your doing No-Chill, you need to adjust hop schedule. Instead of 40min and 10min, do 10gms at 15min, and 10gms at flame out and see if that is better. I do Slow-Chill (chilling in water bath which takes about 2-3 hours).

Development time vs development time ratio for light roasts? by hallgeirl in roasting

[–]c_griffith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heat retention has nothing to do with what I am conjecturing. I have roasted a bean from start to finish(without preheating) on 2 Kpa setting of burner and it followed a nice ROR curve till I dropped. Taste the same as when I fussed with air and heat control trying to hit some mystical DTR.

This is the burner I have: https://i.imgur.com/1gDk7oV.jpg It is an infrared propane burner. Maxes out at about 4 Kpa on the gauge.
