Alright so I've been doing some testing with Claude code and it's pretty impressive, but bit of a highlight, got it set up as a systems agent at home, on boarded it to my arduino blinds, here's code here's over the air workflow. So in debugging the calibration with it, it's pushing changes.

Meet the samboard - it's a split keyboard frame based on the 'Caldera' design by @selig.bsky.social. Samboard slides into different configurations, spreading out for lap use, compacting for small spaces, or disassembling for desktop use.

how it started hows it going
from breadboard to protoboard, featuring my worst soldering to date but just soldiered on to get my head around it. this is my logic and motor control circuit for my home blind project

Have you seen 3D animations from the IDF showing secret Hamas hideouts?
According to Israel's +972 magazine, many have "serious spatial inaccuracies or prefabricated assets—sourced not from classified intelligence but rather from commercial libraries, content creators, and cultural institutions."

rotating objects is an awesome way to see what items look like from all different types of directions - without the troublesome walking that would usually be a part of that process. rotation is integral in every industry from logistics to fiction, where authors "turn" ideas around in their minds

Just make it exist first. You can make it worse with each new pass while getting increasingly frustrated later.

fiddly but also loving mapping out the wiring in fusion, it really helped last time, and the micromillimeter affordances I can make as a result really make a difference

new wood rack WIP - wood frame 25cm spaced 22ml holes for dowl, but using lots of repurpused old rods, some with shims. lots of variable lateral storage has been a dream for a while! all wood is found / scavenged from skips and the side of the road, most of the screws even, so zero cost materials

half sized and only one side, (calling it a wing) linear slide rail so can extend further and use depth of space between wings for compute / screen
not sure about extra width, trying version with rails in the body, but wont have the understorage
loving the half sized models they make fun fidgets
