I’m using Plasticity with an MCP and Astra for 3D printing work, haven’t tried it for woodworking projects yet. It’s decent at modeling medium complexity enclosures and structural supports, so might be worth giving it a try.

Made something very similar recently, minus the monitor input switching:

In this case the key thing was to make this work with an old MX Master, which isn’t properly supported for one-button multi-device easy switching.

Hopefully soon they will make a model that merges something like S3 and Grove Vision AI accelerator.

Tried running yolo pose on bare S3, and the results were underwhelming.

Tangental, but can’t wait for automated blackmail from crawlers continuously digging through my digital footprint. /s

Karabiner is the only way I managed to sync window tiling shortcuts between native Macbook and Logitech keyboard, and even that took a lot of effort due to fn/globe key special treatment.

Company incentives will always trump individual functions, no matter if it’s UX, QA, etc.

Good UX is still possible, but requires a supportive business model as an enabler.

A lot of designers who joined the field recently weren’t thought the “we’re saving the world; we’re responsible for the empathy” trap that was so prevelent 10-15 years ago, and I’m seeing more realistic worldview and less shattering disillusionment because there was no belief in UX to start with - it’s just a job, not a calling.

+1 for Figma. Smart animate with proper transition duration and a trigger can do wonders.
