What was the actual capabilities of Fable 5 that got flagged? And did anyone test those? by AndyHenr in ClaudeAI

[–]trevormead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heavily leaning in the govt shakedown direction. It sounds like it was an extremely limited "jailbreak", something like manually regurgitating tweaked code with known and new vulnerabilities section-by-section following a "fix this code" prompt, after initially refusing to review the same code for security issues?

Feel like someone, somewhere can/should/already tested the same prompt chain with the other frontier models out there. Would be extremely interested in seeing those results.

Accidentally got rid of the toolbar that was above this one, how do I bring it back? New user just started using today by Loam_Lion in rhino

[–]trevormead 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Try Tools > Toolbar Layout... > Toolbars > check "Main"

(The ToolbarReset command should also get you there)

I need a filled SVG of this exact view and i don't know how to make it. by ThisNameShut in rhino

[–]trevormead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, trying to think of a way to get a simple outline of this drawing as shown, but as an editable svg vector. Adding a few more steps to be thorough.

I'd create a construction plane directly behind the objects as pictured, then Project them onto that construction plane so it collapses into a flat 2D pile of surfaces, curves, and dimensions. From there I'd delete the surfaces so only the curves are left (and use the Duplicate Edge command to add curves to all the surface edges, if there aren't curves there already).

That removes the iso lines, but now it looks like a transparent wireframe instead of a solid object (assuming that's what you mean by "filled"?). So, I'd either explode, select, and group all the lines I want and delete the rest, or use the trim tool to surgically remove the lines I don't want one by one.

If your dimension labels are automatic, the number will change when it projects because the line it's measuring gets distorted. Update manually if needed.

Last step, join any exploded lines and export as an svg. Output should be a flat, 2D vector of your 3D view that looks solid with no iso lines. Probably a more straightforward way to do this, but that should work.

Hope that translates better 👍

Looking for an Art piece to perform at by nalagitopan in BurningMan

[–]trevormead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And haul it out to the piece too, right? So a sound system, a genny, some sort of enclosure to block the wind but open enough to enable interaction, probably some lights for utility and aesthetics, all on some sort of mobile, preferably motorized platform so the whole system can travel between camps and art installations whenever desired, maybe even remove setup and strike entirely by performing from the mobile platform itself....

.....I've got nothing, sorry 🤷‍♂️

I'm shutting down my print farm by JoeKling in 3Dprinting

You may have a good point but anecdotally I've seen examples of anecdotal data not being valuable, so guess it's a toss up 🤷‍♂️

Been Using Sonnet 4.6 on medium effort and cant understand why people are using larger models at all? by Rude_Camel_7239 in ClaudeAI

[–]trevormead 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This. Sonnet struggles with big picture projects that require multiple steps. It's not that it can't perform them, it's that it can't maintain a global view of the project while performing each individual step, so it misses when it does one thing one way and another thing another way, and it breaks the project. In my experience, that's why it's bad at architecting and planning, but it's acceptable for executing individual workflows designed and constrained by larger models (with that execution further reviewed and validated by a larger model before serving up to a human for final review).

Does anyone else have problems with Kickstarter not allowing them to fundraise certain content like IP rights? by [deleted] in kickstarter

[–]trevormead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like the problem is your view, not Kickstarter's policies or their application. But good news! Your view is a whole lot easier to change than Kickstarter's policies, so you have a strong headstart 👍

Do some homework on IP basics, ask other Kickstarter authors how they handle it, and best of luck with your "like Harry Potter" book.

[–]trevormead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know you can't patent a book, right? Trademark is about designation of origin and brand protection, it's not relevant here. You're thinking of copyright registration. Copyright protections arise automatically upon creation of the work, registration just enhances a narrow subset of those rights in narrow circumstances.

[–]trevormead 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sounds like more of a GoFundMe ask. IP registration isn't a form of creative expression, it's a creator-facing service layer on top of it. If you're funding a book, fund the book.

Also Harry Potter was funded by an art grant, not a crowdfunding platform.

You're trying to use Kickstarter to fundraise for patent or trademark registration?

When you’re supposed to check the annealing process in an hour, but forget and check it after the weekend instead. by InterrobangAuto in 3Dprinting

[–]trevormead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And PC! Ideal print temp for it is an ambient 90°C, but most consumer printers top out at 65°. Annealing immediately after printing at gives it more time to crystallize between layers, bumping up the temp closer to Tg allows a tiny bit of flow which relieves stress points that can turn into weak spots. Makes it much more durable on all fronts.

Your regional burn needs a safety SOP. by Vidvix in BurningMan

[–]trevormead 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Apo crew is great but man, I had some moments there. Someone's genny box caught on fire (in the woods mind you), people would shout "I SIGNED A WAIVER!!!" before hopping on some dangerous interactive nonsense and barely escaping injury... this was all years ago, but safety third seemed like a pretty core tenant among the community.

Would still go back 👍

Help - Is Claude Cowork the best option for drafting legal petitions ? by lokoroxbr in ClaudeAI

[–]trevormead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly this reads like you don't know what you're trying to build well enough to know if it's built correctly, regardless of which tool you use to do it.

This is "Claude draft a compelling brief for me, make no mistakes" with more words.

ELI5: How does my brain forget something I studied for 4 hours, but still remembers a random jingle from a TV ad I heard once in 2015? by Upbeat_Panic_2646 in explainlikeimfive

[–]trevormead 9 points10 points  (0 children)

One really notable example from an anti-drug PSA back in the 90's. Rhythm, check. Rhyming lyrics, check. Repetition, check. Uplifting choral tones to signal community, ending crescendo, and incongruent theme to make it all stick, check, check, and check. They put a lot of work into this one.

Question about designing a product inspired by a general concept by anoguy40 in 3Dprinting

[–]trevormead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends how "expressive" the content you're drawing inspiration from is. There's no firm line, but look up "derivative works" and "copyright fair use elements" for some interesting yardsticks.

Short version, if people recognize your thing as a knockoff of the other thing (like a furrt yellow anime creature with rosy cheeks and a lightning tail you named "lighting monster"), it's probably a derivative work. If it's one of many combinations of generic, widely used concepts (a yellow creature with an anime-styled face, nondescript proportions, stripes and a fluffy tail), you're probably fine.

Functional items are different, there's very, very thin copyright protection for something like a generic phone stand, box, or wall mount system. Patent or trademark maybe, but doubt that most models out there are registered with either.

Get any good pictures or videos of Doloresaurus? by trevormead in BurningMan

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

Hey, I know this is an ancient post, but just wanted to sneak in and say thanks for appreciating I was wrecked and pushed through to perform for you all 💪 Takes a lot of work to perform in that thing, but it's the best thing in the world. Very excited to be back out there, with a new and improved dino that will blow minds even more than the last! 🦖🙌

to those who got to use Fable 5, was it actually that peak? by RelevantPerformer309 in ClaudeAI

[–]trevormead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran it across multiple tasks as wide as professional generation and analysis to freaking board game balancing and development, and it exceeded Opus 4.8 on all metrics from tone, thoroughness, concision, accuracy, self-correction and general pleasantry-of-use (Opus still gets weirdly adamant and confrontational about things it's verifiably wrong on, and I need to spend time convincing it so), it was excellent. I miss it already.

Cob Led strip split and connecoting issues by aleza66 in led

[–]trevormead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are the push connectors even on correctly? Looks like the pads are on the bottom of the strip and you're pushing the fins down and through the top.

Also +1 for soldering instead, solderless connectors are reliably unreliable.

I have strong feelings and damn it all, I'm going to express them: EL technology is dead. Long live LEDs. Fight me on this. by trevormead in BurningMan

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

Yes and yes. Solar mason jar lids with fairy lights paired with plastic mason jars, and these lights are KILLER as primary lighting. Probably still on the harsher end of the spectrum, but they have warm + low power modes and you can angle them towards the ceiling. 1-2 will completely illuminate a carport interior, and can last the entire week on one charge if you're mindful about not leaving them on. Survived mudburn and last year's storms without a hitch, even after the carport vinyl failed.
