Best module for generate sketch
I was thinking about cadQuery or DrawSVG. But maybe you have a better idea ? I'm beginner in python (started on november ...)

Synth Printer: 3D printed synth panels with simple Python code. Give me early feedback?
Last few months, I've made over 20 3D printed panels using the CadQuery Python library. Its syntax is pretty complex, so every time I wanted to make a panel, I'd just copy-paste bits and pieces from my previous panels. In the process, I learned what work and what doesn't, and I thought it was time to polish up this system to share it with others.

This subreddit now says that the Steam Deck is just a PC right when you join it. Now all of you who say that it isn't a PC can stop arguing about it
Spicy! I'm also a solidworks user but I've been playing around with cadquery recently, that installed and performs pretty nicely on Linux for me. Haven't really pushed it though.

Pipeline to automate the process from creating 3d objects to start a print job
I am currently developing a pipeline for creating STL files, slice them and create a print job based on it. My setup at the moment is an Ultimaker S5, which offers a simple REST-API, for example starting a job with a G-Code or UFP file. I am using the cadQuery library for creating parametrized 3d shapes and export them as a STL file. I want to use the CuraEngine CLI interface (Backend for Cura) for slicing or their library libArcus (python bindings) but there is literally no documentation or any kind of examples, except the source code. There is also the prucaSlicer, which also offers a CLI interface for creating G-Code, but no support for the Ultimaker S5.

Any recommendations for a simple solid modeling API library? Preferably C or C++
Not C but maybe cadquery? https://cadquery.readthedocs.io

What is the end purpose of your OpenBSD system?
CadQuery would be a closer alternative to OpenSCAD. Not sure if it’s available on OpenBSD.

Linux Software: a curated list of Linux software
Nice! I'd add FreeCAD, and also the RealThunder fork https://github.com/realthunder/FreeCAD which adds enhancement(seems to be getting slowly merged to mainline).

Ask HN: What are some unpopular technologies you wish people knew more about?
Lithium Titanate batteries. Nothing else is lightweight, safe, currently available, and lasts 20000 cycles.
ESPHome. It's a framework for declaratively building firmware for microcontrollers, based on rules like "This pin is an input with debouncing, when it changes, toggle this".
Contributing to them has probably been the most fun I've had programming in years.
We just need power management, and a C++ implementation of the Native API client. It's so close to being able to replace most of what I'd normally code by hand in Arduino.

RealThunder's fork of FreeCAD: https://github.com/realthunder/FreeCAD
They fix so many issues. Linear patterns can duplicate other linear patterns!
Vorta: It's the best backup technology I've seen. Just an easy guided GUI for Borg, which gives you deduplication. I just wish they let you deduplicate across multiple repositories somehow.

Dune 3D – an open source parametric 3D CAD app bassed on OCCT
JFTR, FCStd-files produced by RealThunder's LinkStage[0] (fork of FreeCAD) is not fully backward compatible with an official FreeCAD app, and wise versa.
So, if you are planning to use LinkStage app for some large project, be ready to use only one app for the whole project and be ready to lost in whole or in part compatibility with the users of an official FreeCAD.

RealThunder Snap channels
edge is where all the exciting new features got released. It contains the latest commit from the FreeCAD Link Branch (https://github.com/realthunder/FreeCAD). Unlike the convention, here, the user is encouraged to try the edge release, to help improve all new features so that they can one day land in upstream FreeCAD.

"One transformed shape does not intersect support" when Mirrored
Alternative solution is to use Realthunder's build. It doesn't have that limitation in addition to a whole bunch of other QoL additions.

Link3/Realthunder MacOS Mojave
As for your question, better to open a ticket on realthunder's Link repo: https://github.com/realthunder/FreeCAD/issues

Just finished an Infinity cube remix (needed to print a smaller one and gaps can't be scaled). I created one block and one link using a spreadsheet and partdesign. I then cloned/mirrored and manually placed the rest of the blocks. Is there a better way?
I don't know for regular FC, but Realthunders Branch allows multiple solids in a PartDesign body, so with that one, you could use Multitransform to create a Mirror and linear pattern transformation (probably before adding the grooves for the links)
