to clarify, i fed it my ideas + structure + sources, and had gpt do the articulation. so i don't think it's cheating/unethical. really curious to hear what y'all think.

I'm working with @meticulous_home to build an open-source espresso machine. It'll have closed-loop pressure control and cost <$500 to build.
we just finished the 2nd prototype, will post progress soon!

Would like to know why u think so. Cheating definition: acting dishonestly & unfairly.
Honesty: the prof didn't say we can't use LLM's.
fairness: everyone has free access to LLM's.

people r saying that it's cheating cuz i didnt write it myself. if today i used LLM's for all the ideas, but wrote the essay 100% with my own words, is it cheating?
i agree that the transparency aspect is contentious, so I'm gonna meet with the prof next week and let him decide whether he still wants to use it as an example or if he wants to kick me out of the school. will keep u posted.

today i learned that 8020 extrusions are named after the 80% work 20% time rule. it's not even like a special configuration. they just fw that rule heavily. I'm inexplicably disappointed.

I worked really hard in the last months of school to start Hacker Fab in Waterloo.
Few months later, we formed a student design team, raised $16k, and have 200 students wanting to make it happen.
Join us for our first event tonight in E5 to learn about how you can join!
announcing... the waterloo hacker fab 📀
four months ago, a group of friends & i set out to build a diy chip fab @uwaterloo!
so far, we've built a lithography machine, achieved micron-scale patterning, and have secured ~$16k to build the rest of the fab.
more details below!

a huge thank you to @meticulous_home for inviting me to work with them in mexico for a week!
it was incredible to see inside one of the biggest kickstarter projects in the history, and to push our open-source efforts forward.

Recently, my favourite object has been the 3/32” ball end hex driver from BONDHUS. It works with both 4-40 and M3 socket head cap screws, which are two of my favourite fasteners.

proud of my friends. don't think I've ever laughed so hard at a hackathon
We just ran the worlds most impressive and entertaining AI Agent hackathon!
Students competed in challenges like “first agent to order a pizza to the venue” and built agents that work better than most companies demos.
Here's a 🧵of the winners out of 100+ students:

I wonder what @Onshape is up to. They probably have the largest set of CAD data to train on, including modelling history and intent.
A bit concerning that when i met Jon Hirschtick (solidworks + onshape founder) few months ago, he just said it's an "interesting idea"
we are so b̶a̶c̶k̶ b-rep.
meet cadmancer, the first in a series of models we will be releasing
you can export the designs it creates, optionally to your favorite cad/cam software (fusion 360 etc), and manufacture it.
very early work - still lots more to do before prime time, compute is the biggest bottleneck right now. I'll also be training a tool path model at some point in the future, but that's out of scope until I can get the quality to a high enough standard on the base model.
hoping to make it available to everyone open source. trying to figure out how to open source it whilst also bootstrapping a sustainable team.
