Comment on '3d-printing a screw' is a way to describe how AI integration is stupid most of the time
prime_number_314159@lemmy.world 1 day agoA 1.5" long number 8 wood screw has slightly more than half the holding strength when it is driven by a hammer into 2 3/4" pine boards, relative to the traditional rotating the workpiece approach, but takes only about 1% of the time to install. You can very easily add a second screw to achieve the desired strength, while often gaining resistance to torque in the workpiece.
Meanwhile, 3D printed screws usually break when struck with a hammer, so they’re no good for this approach.

Why would I want torque resistance at work? Getting torque is the only reason I have a job.
