Harper is great, but it only does English. Really wish their “extensible core” was extended to other languages sometime.

Alternatively maybe something like the Roetz-End which can change colors without swapping filaments by rotating and/or stopping the flow of one of its inputs.

I just wish that they wrote more articles. Their writing style is superb. Can’t argue with this though:

More coming soon. Or not. I don’t owe you shit.

QR codes come with (differing levels of) error correction. You could decode it and take the amount of corrected errors as a score.

I don’t know what unit/chunk of data the error correction works on but you could alternatively dive a bit into information theory and calculate how close any of the chunks are to an uncorrectable error and use that as a score.

Since the first uncorrectable error will cause the scan to fail this would match your problem definition fairly well.

One benefit of this approach would be that it’s a single scan and done vs searching n permutations of the same code.
Or maybe you’d want to scan it a couple of times to rule out any additional errors introduced by the camera or environment.

The Steam Controller just released. Guess you shouldve bought Balatro before that ;)

I assume you’ve used ESPHome for the firmware?

Did you have to mess around with deep sleep or is the battery + solar combo so overkill that it doesn’t matter?

Anyways very cool project. Thanks for sharing

Got it working thanks to your troubleshooting tips now. Also found a very neat way to handle secrets from another comment.

I tend to run a DB instance per service as that makes backup restoration much easier for me. An idle postgres sits at around 50MB which is a cost I’m willing to pay.

Thank you again for your help :)

Managed to get it working by passing in env vars from a secret now.

ArgoCD has a really handy web UI that allows you to quickly see what kind of resources get deployed.
Especially for learning k8s I found that much easier to visualize than raw kubectl outputs.

Passing in the secrets once via the global: section is very neat. Got it working now with a few of the other tips and stole your trick for my secret handling. Thank you :)

Did you also have to set all these env vars by hand?
I am wondering if it might have something to do with rendering Helm Charts under ArgoCD.

I’ll give it another try with your recommendations.

And should I get it working finally, I will obviously switch back to using Secrets.
I only removed them to reduce possible points of failure.

As for blueprints, that’s a task for future me xD

OrcaSlicer has things like Adaptive Cubic or Lightning patterns that have more infill near the walls.

The other members of that slicer family (BambuStudio, PrusaSlicer, etc) likely have them too.

Losing both uv and ruff in one fell swoop sucks.

I’ve written my bachelors thesis with it.

You won’t get any official pre made templates for your thesis (yet) and if you require some obscure notation you probably won’t find a ready made package for it.

For my purposes I only needed some pictures and code blocks which works perfectly fine.

Also typst’s show rules are awesome.

Same here. Literally just set it up and now this.

I hope the author will roll this back or someone else makes a fork. I don’t want to immediately switch technology to XMPP/Matrix/… and have to do it all over again.
