uv installs packages faster than pip by an order of magnitude. The usual explanation is “it’s written in Rust.” That’s true, but it doesn’t explain much. Plenty of tools are written in Rust without being notably fast. The interesting question is what design decisions made the difference.

In Marlin you can get a TSV of the mesh with G29 T to paste in here
A good starting point. Providing a max-width on the main content is the thing I wish all otherwise unstyled pages had.
I've been having mysterious problems with inconsistent z-offset with my Qidi Q1 printer, and this reddit post diagnosed it! (Screws holding the extruder together work themselves loose, and then the hotend is able to move a bit.)
