<p>ive been getting claude to reverse engineer my raybans glasses case, so i can figure out a 3d printed insert to put in thats less likely to break.<p>in the process, figuring out some tricks for getting opus to work with 3d a bit better<p>two tricks ive found is to:<p>1. get claude to present all the orientations to you, then pick which one after
2. convert 3d problems to 2d ones - get it to draw streamlines describing the geometry, rather than trying to look at the whole thing in 3d<p>fable was a fair bit better at working in 3d than opus is. well, opus mostly isnt</p>

<p>i get the sense that its probably overblown, sicne we've only got a couple years worth of measured data on it.<p>we're jumping to a catastrophe when it might just ring, and whatever the environmentalists who prioritize it qant to do about it might change something that doesnt need changing, and result in actual catastrophe when the ringing stops</p>
