Why can AI generate Super Mario but not a wedge ramp for my robot vacuum?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49405520I've been puzzled by something: AI generation can produce an elaborate figurine, a cartoon character, even a convincing Super Mario — yet it can't reliably make a simple wedge ramp so my robot vacuum can climb a step. For context: I bought a Bambu P2S but can't model. I tried the "describe it and get a model" AIs — the output is unusable, you can't adjust it, it's never quite what I meant. I tried having an agent write Python to build geometry directly — it tops out at simple primitives. What finally worked: geometric decomposition. I break a complex part into ordered, grouped steps, describe each as a small spec, and let an agent execute them in Blender (via blender-mcp). That process turned out to abstract into a small engine — the key insight being it converts the 3D spatial reasoning LLMs are bad at, into the structured code they're good at. I wrote it up here: https://github.com/zhuchaokn/spec-3d-model My questions: - Why is "functional part" generation so much weaker than "figuri

Show HN: CtrlTool – 132 free online tools for developers and everyday taskshttps://ctrltool.wtfHey HN, I built CtrlTool because I kept needing small tools for random things and didn't want to install something or sign up for another website. It currently has 132 tools for things like JSON, JWT, Base64, URLs, text, hashes, PDFs, SEO, converters, generators, and other everyday stuff.The main thing I tried to focus on is making the tools fast and simple. For tools where it makes sense, everything runs locally in the browser so the data doesn't need to be uploaded to a server.It's still very new, so I'm mostly looking for feedback on the UX, which tools are actually useful, and what you think is missing.https://ctrltool.wtfWould appreciate any feedback.
