Like I hope my robot helper doesn't come to life and take over my world, my robot has helpers that *it* hopes don't come to life and take over its world.
Luckily they can't because the code policy is that these secondary helper programs can't access control of the motors.

So this robot arm, which is something intended to save labour by automating routine tasks, has helper programs that automate its routine tasks.

The secondary program CAN do things like read input/output signals, analyze the robot pose, etc. All things that don't take up "physical time" and are intended to support the operation of the main program.

Most important is to learn how your printer actually works, because eventually you'll need to diagnose and fix something. Prusas come in kit form. Get one, spend a day, learn a ton. They also have a deep community knowledge base you can refer to. I run 24 Prusas at a university.

A lot of talk about bamboo or wood utensils. Both are very renewable, but a word of caution: most bamboo products have a high percentage of resin/glue to hold little strips together. You don't know what's in that resin. Most wood utensils have very few glue lines, which is better.

thanks for being accessible in your writing. to my ear, any phrase that includes 'class' is hard to separate from the socio-economic kind. would you consider something like favoured/unfavoured/least favoured? like the terminology for how modern trade alliances spread?

I admire your daring. I once made an omelette with tangerine slices. That was a dead end.
