    I let Claude Code loose in Blender, and it's a completely different assistant than it is in a CAD program (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    I've spent enough time messing around with the ever-useful Claude Code in CAD software that I assumed I had it pretty well figured out. You ask it to move a hole in a parametric model, and it wants the exact measurement before it'll touch anything; it won't just guess. Ask for a fillet, and it goes and checks the constraint tree first, because if it guesses wrong there, you end up with a part that won't bolt onto whatever it's supposed to bolt onto.

    Read excerpt

    David Lynch spent most of his career making audiences uneasy. Eraserhead turned new fatherhood into a waking nightmare. Blue Velvet found something rotten underneath a tidy suburban lawn.

    I found Apple's hidden Wi-Fi menu and my connection finally made sense (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    For years, I figured the tiny "i" next to my network name in Settings > Wi-Fi on my iPhone was for looking up details, not fixing anything. You tap it when you need your IP address (which you can change) for something else, then close the screen without reading past it. It sits between the toggle and forget-network, and I must have tapped past it 100 times without ever reading what was on it. By creating an account, you agree to our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
