Started a math blog (twopi.dev). The first post is about π. Do give it a read. twopi.dev/2026/what-is...
What is π, really? — TwoPi

Rough idea I've been kicking around: An open source planter 🌱🪴 - Mostly 3D printed (except LED strip, earth, seeds, wicks) - Number of plants is parametric, just print the dimensions you need - Compatible with "Click & Grow" cups
Open sourced a parametric planter: www.printables.com/model/169959... Diameter & Height are adjustable via FreeCAD

My hobby recently has been 3D modeling and printing. Today I watched a documentary about airplane construction, so I designed this rib/spar wing portion in FreeCAD:
BetterAuth plugins are quite neat. They can be used to extend BetterAuth with new authentication methods or to intercept and change how other plugins behave. You can create bothserver-side plugins and client-side plugins. 1/5

better-auth makes building a SaaS type app so much easier. It's basically this config, with a few more options and some HTML/CSS.
better-auth's Stripe plugin makes it easy to send lifecycle emails about the subscription:
If you have payment integration in your project, It's nice to adjust `pnpm dev` to start both the dev server and Stripe tunneling
