Neural Knots
I was up late working on building a wooden planter box. Most of this work was easy then I started to overthink the top frame that I wanted to add. I was measuring the angles and the overhang that I wanted, and trying to figure out what cut dimensions I needed. As I said, it was late so the math wasnt really coming to me. Er rather, I was really over thinking what I needed to do. So I described what I was trying to do to ChatGPT and it spitout the exact dimensions of the wood that I needed to cut. I cut the wood and it worked perfectly.

Again, wasnt great but not nothing!
