Almost every commit in the github repository is generated by claude code, so this may be correct.

The cost wouldn't necessarily be in the bike, but in requirements for mandatory paid registration, licensing classes, insurance, inspection, and safety equipment.

Wattage is basically meaningless. There is nk standard way to measure it. Almost all "250 watt" ebikes consume much more than 250 watts of electricity at full throttle, and can produce much more than 250 watts of mechanical output

To rotate the view in SolveSpace, you need any one of these: * a keyboard's shift key and a right mouse button, or * a middle mouse button, or * a 3D mouse. I've done some work in SolveSpace with a Wacom tablet, by binding the sty

SolveSpace does have some ability to control the color and fill of areas. It's nowhere near as powerful as Inkscape, but enough to make simple diagrams. The exported SVGs can also be edited in Inkscape.

Just because you type dimensions in doesn't mean it's parametric. If you're manually patching meshes, you're almost certainly not doing parametric CAD! (This does match with my memories of SketchUp, beck when it was owne

FWIW, the FLOSS CAD program SolveSpace can generate parametric sketches and export them as SVG files (file > export 2d view)

As someone who used the HTML gmail interface right up until google pulled the plug: the JS version is much slower to load. Every morning, I get to have about 10 seconds thinking about how it used to be faster.

Redundancy for read access to the source code is a concern for Dillo. Some years ago, the domain name registration lapsed, and was promptly bought by an impersonator, taking the official repository offline. If it hadn't been for people

What's wrong with that? That seems like more than one release per year, and all roughly compatible with each other.
