I have my first unprintable model on the Prusa... First attempt: Bad bed adhesion, Second attempt: 3cm layer shift randomly appearing on the 20th layer. Third attempt: Spaghetti after layer 5.... I give up. Calibration and checks says everything is fine.
Maybe check belt tension and retraction...

Wow I am on week two of a tricky to solve python problem and bloody Claude ChatGPT does not help at all... The only thing it does in an exceptional way is to create more questions that need more tokens to answer... I am learning new things about Python I didn't want to know though... 😬🤷♂️😵💫

And another week gone where #Claude and #ChatGPT wasted 2/3rds of my work time with simply completely factual wrong answers. Figuring out what actually happens and correcting the code written based on wrong guidance took some time... *sigh* I swear that machine is trying to break me...

My standard interaction with AI models in GitHub Copilot is unsatisfactory and goes like this:
Usually N steps:
1. I want to do XYZ... epic explanation

2. Great, but won't that break complete functionality on the existing code because of ABC
-> Very good point: Try that

Ok I need distraction from the state of the world or all my posts will be pre-apocalyptic rants:
I managed to try heat inserts for 3D printing the first time yesterday. That worked quite nicely, though not really necessary for a small box. Friction fit lid would have done as well. #3dprinting #prusa
