According to a random Reddit comment it was down for maintenance, but that comment was made 20+ days ago. Odd there is no mention of it being down on the main page or anything especially because all of the links on the main page point to forum posts.

It sounds like it’s kind of a combination different synthesis.

“What makes Alchemy so distinctive and powerful, is that it combines additive, granular and spectral synthesis into one neat package that yields a tonal range unlike most methods of synthesis.”

CAD software is made for situations like this.

Say you design a bench like they show in their example, that bench has defined dimensions length, height, depth as an example.

Then other dimensions would be considered constants, say for instance the size and spacing of the boards (slates) that are used for the seat of the bench.

These dimensions and their relationships are saved in the CAD design file.

So say for instance later on we want to make another bench with the depth of the bench increased and we want to keep the spacing of the boards consistent and assume we are going to keep the boards the same size. Well we will need to increase the number of boards that are needed for the seat.

But since we set that information up in the original design we can just change the depth dimension and the design will automatically update along with all of the linked components and design files.

Hopefully this makes sense. I will try and answer questions if it’s not clear.

Things like this I am always like wow that’s neat. Then I look at it more and I am like so did they not know that parametric CAD already exists. This could have been made in freeCAD for instance. Or if they still wanted the “programming” aesthetic it could have been done in openSCAD.

Then at least it can be saved and distributed in common CAD formats. And then the final design can generate the BOM and the 2d drawings.

Not a lawyer or a financial advisor… but a wild tangent to think about… is it more affordable to be married or divorced.

It’s an administration of billionaires trying to get rid of “tax loopholes” for the common person so they can decrease their own tax liabilities. But they appear to be incapable of assessing cause and effect.

So yes you won’t get the benefit if you are married filing separate but if I am understanding correctly, it sounds like you can still get the benefit if filing single.

So if you were single and still getting the payment reduction would you still be in this situation?

If not maybe divorced and filing single and the other filing head of household while still living together could be an option.

Just another thing to consider.
