This is one of my earliest tech memories. It was so fast when it came out.
Extremely tangential, but this is my favourite upshot of AI. For decades, companies have been walling off their services and forcing us into their fuckass UIs. Now over the course of the last twelve months, suddenly everything has an MCP and I can use it through my command line chat interface.
Any company that doesn't adapt gets so hammered by people's AI-DIY web scrapers that they have no choice but to cave.
Ahh I was hoping for the opposite: all of the existing features of Claude Code but somehow running locally on my laptop's neural engine. A pipe dream on an M2 with 8 GB of RAM, but I had a flicker of hope there.
Because water is one of the cheapest inputs into agriculture. Growing almonds in California is a ~bad idea, but it's not a stupid idea.

When the water is coming out of the ceiling at 25 gpm, you get a lot of slightly oily water and no fire.
To answer your earlier question, the purpose of sprinklers in a house is to save my pets' lives if a fire starts while I'm away.
Is it? I would think that identifying text written by a specific person is going to be significantly easier than identifying text distilled from the words of almost everyone alive.

I'm not really criticizing, clearly your system works for you. Ironically, as I've been using AI more, I've been rolling more systems that work for me instead of relying on existing ones. It's very freeing.
The biggest challenge at this point is figuring out how to make the dice print consistently. With each die face only having a few points of contact, they keep unsticking. What I'm trying now is cutting the dice in half, printing the halves, and then sticking them together with dowels.

Having more native integration into Blender, which I'm already much more familiar with, will be fantastic.
