A tool that checks your broken python/pip install and fixes it properly. https://xkcd.com/1987/
The benefits :
- I will understand during development which code is mission critical, and I should be careful with it, as well as invest more time in optimizing this code and document it better.
- I will understand what the customers do, which flows they use and which flows they avoid, so seeing code which I've developed recently but not used yet - will help me understanding that I'm wasting my time on writing unused features or we did not really understood the customers expectations.
- I will be able to cleanup dead code easily on the go.
It's like a theme park manager walking around in the park and watches which rides has long lines of people and which rides have no lines.. helps the manager understand where to put effort and which rides to remove / replace.
A library of person-to-person communication snippets for those of us on the spectrum like this tool https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31224996 but curated by well intentioned community.
I would love a small conversion tool to read in medical imaging dicom files and output a volumetric vdb dataset. I've nearly written this on several occasions. Most, but not all, dicom files encode a 2d or a 3d scalar field and vdb files are the graphical effects industry standard format for those, usually used for fog, fire, or similar effects. They can also usually be converted to polygon meshes through a variety o…
Can you link a VDB spec?
It's not as mature as the dicom standard (which is very...mature) and they do change it occasionally, but it is stable.

"today 17:00 Pacific in UTC" should be accepted.
There are other time zones too: I've seen "PDT", "Mountain", and so on. The `date` tool doesn't always understand what those are. That's a bummer because neither do I, and that's why I need this tool.
Something to convert from one date to other, but with timezone names used by humans. For example: "today 17:00 Pacific in UTC" should be accepted. There are other time zones too: I've seen "PDT", "Mountain", and so on. The `date` tool doesn't always understand what those are. That's a bummer because neither do I, and that's why I need this tool.
