One option is 3D printing a mold to fill with silicone sealant. If this is a part that fails regularly, the mold may be worth it. You then have a pretty broad array of food safe sealants you could use and don't have to worry about your 3d printed part harboring bacteria.

That's about where I land. I've used it the other way, too, to help tighten up a good short story I'd written where my tone and tense was all over the place.

I've used LLMs to write automated tests for my code, too. They're not hard to write, just super tedious.

Oh, I am right there with you. I don't want to write tests because they're tedious, so I backfill with the AI at least starting me off on it. It's a lot easier for me to fix something (even if it turns into a complete rewrite) than to start from a blank file.

I've used them for unit tests and it still makes some really weird decisions sometimes. Like building an array of json objects that it feeds into one super long test with a bunch of switch conditions. When I saw that one I scratched my head for a little bit.

First flight in 1903, on the moon in 1969. That's 63 years. There are people who lived an experience where flight went from impossible to us planting a flag on a different celestial body. That's incredible when you stop to think about it.

Himbo Hooters would also be acceptable

I switched to exclusively Kagi on my phone and it's been a pretty pleasant experience. Not perfect, but fairly serviceable. You're right, it's way less cluttered. Going back to Google can sometimes be very jarring.

Have you considered a Space Mouse? They're a little pricey, but should actually give you almost everything you want.

I built myself a 400x400x500 CoreXY machine from scratch.

Honestly, my prints are dogshit unless I go slow, and then sometimes they're dogshit anyway. I have found the entire exercise as one of futility and massive frustration... but I low key love fucking with it. I can't help myself, I keep building upgrades and improvements for it. I keep sinking time and energy I don't have (and cash that I do) into this fucking heap of shit and I can't help but love it to pieces. It's dumb as fuck and it's pretty fun to work on.

Honestly the vibes are about the same for a project car. Don't daily it or you will hate yourself, but if you put it together and tune it right, you'll have a blast.
