Emacs: The holy grail for code editing?

Emacs and VIM are the text-only editors that are commonly used across Linux environments. Sometimes when you ssh into a machine there is no GUI editors available and you often reach for an editor like this. This is what I like best about emacs. It's usually installed on every machine and makes it easy to edit a variety of file formats on a remote machine.

OpenSCAD is the CAD for programmers

As an engineer, I always thought AutoCAD was great but cumbersome. When I started with the world of 3D printing and rapid prototyping I was introduced to OpenScad and never went back to regular CAD software. For me it is intuitive after many years of programming in various languages it was so much easier and the fact that it is free is the icing on the cake. Also the ability to make components as modules you can use elsewhere or parametrically size pieces so the same code works for all sizes by importing the code as a module is epic. I highly recommend this product.
