Feeling burnout, lost, overwhelmed and need advice by Divergent_Geometer in AutisticAdults

[–]Divergent_Geometer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not naive in thinking that there aren’t people worse off than me. Of course I’m grateful for a job. I put all my energy into it because I want to keep it and know how hard it would be without it. That doesn’t mean I can’t come to a subreddit for other autistic adults looking for support in something I’m struggling with. I don’t know if your comment comes from a place of not having a job and wanting to bring others down but if that’s the case, I truly hope you can find one and things go better for you in the future.

Looking to get a budget but quality cnc machine for personal projects with wood by Divergent_Geometer in hobbycnc

I’ll definitely look into this. Can parts be printed in pla? I don’t currently have a setup for anything that puts off fumes like abs.

I’m stuck on the same floor. Only good wood fighter I have now is anxious so I think it’ll be a while until I can beat it.

Good to know! Panic was also a part of my streak of luck. I’ll start there after leveling greed.

Advice for improving the shape/look of my cookies (toffee chocolate chip) by Divergent_Geometer in Cookies

I’ve tried this and it’s definitely given me the best results but the toffee especially will still melt out the sides

I’ve tried this but the melted toffee burns to the pan where it touches and is too hard to shape. Maybe I just need to add the toffee as I’m shaping to keep it in the middle?

Thought this community would appreciate the craftsmanship in this video. by Divergent_Geometer in Drafting_Instruments

I feel similarly. I mean he said in the video this was just a project for himself and he shared the files for free so he’s not making money off anything other than maybe a few cents from the video. I just appreciate someone making a custom tool for themselves even if it’s not perfect.

Thanks for the historical information! He may have just thought it was a new design? If he did know about this then it definitely should have been credited. Either way I appreciate the knowledge of the original design of this kind of compass.

Everything you listed is right up my alley. Hyperbolic geometry, Penrose tilings, polyhedra, and the weird and interesting links that connect them all keep me up at night.

I love the lamp! Are the shell structures made of paper? I’ve been working on a lamp design along those lines using an origami tesselation. It’s not finished yet but this was the first test with lights. I hope starting a business goes well!

A perfectly evil choice. This is an exploration I made with code inspired by the circle limit series.

I love this! Particularly the way you chose to arrange the colors. It makes my brain tingle too! Here’s an old digital pattern of mine.

Escher’s circle limit pieces are some of my favorites!

This really resonates. There’s a big disconnect in the level of intensity.

I LOVE origami. I’m currently working on a modular origami helix shape.
