This is just a quick shoutout to our first official Python package on PyPi: dlpt – Damogran Labs Python Tools, which was just released! This library should cover the most everyday use cases that you encounter while writting any Python project. Most of dlpt functions are basically a wrappers around buil-in functions, that take care […]
A simple hack to enable the same configurable menu for “My Favorites” key on a Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000
This is a story about how I embed Kensington trackball mouse with Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000. I work as a programmer – that means 8 h/day 5 days/week I sit and stare into a screen. Although I mostly type, you can’t really avoid mouse. The problem is that I also have a severe issues
I solved the problem with burn marks on Klarart‘s laser cutter. Here is the blog post about details. At the end, I mentioned that the air assist nozzle might not be optimally shaped. Immediately I felt guilty for not backing that statement up. Here’s a quick-and-dirty CFD analysis of a wannabe ‘better’ air assist nozzle.
The Problem I’ve been using Chrome Remote Desktop quite happily for a while now. But sometimes it just wouldn’t work as expected. It would connect with no problems but then it would lag and stutter and most often, just freeze for quote a while. Or forever. But! I found and solved the problems with slow
There are tons of advice on how to clean laser cutting burn marks. Most of them are useless but the ones that work require quite a lot of elbow grease. Wouldn’t it be nice to not produce those marks in the first place? I decided to get to the bottom of this question. And eventually,
Running a single CFD simulation rarely provides enough information to find a good hydraulic or aerodynamic design of a component. In many cases the poor engineer has to wrestle an awfully long list of design parameters into a state-of-the-art shape. Luckily, OpenFOAM and DAKOTA together provide an almost ready-to-use solution just for that: Sensitivity analysis(long
I’m building a wind turbine and as you might imagine, the blades are Ye Royale Paine In Me Buttocks. Too big for a CNC, too exposed for a 3D print, too complicated to be made by hand. I decided to make blades from pipes. This simplifies the build but now how do I know how
