    Your terminal probably has basic calculator program, bc. With Vim's filter (!) operator, we can quickly and easily do math! If you have a file with this: 1 + 1 11 * 11 3.14 * 10 * 10 At start of file, run: !{bc Or use visual selection + !bc. You get 2 121 314.00

    This is awesome, tried out most of the other scanning apps and this does the best job. Also free!

    Made a simple LIDAR 3d scanner for iPad Pro. Couldn't find any apps that don't require cloud / signup / $ to get a mesh. You can share textured models in AR via iMessage + USDZ, GLTF, OBJ Quality isn't great, and it's slow.. but it's free.

    Interesting take on interacting with physical surfaces in VR/AR. Conceptually taking physical structures around me and using it as an interface or a place to interact with things is so smart! Replace the TV on the wall with a digital display or my table w/interactive buttons.

    Playing with with Quest. I wanted to imagine what if you could define your own interactive touchable surfaces... really suited for actually. Ideally you would just touch any surface where you'd like to pin content or UI.

    =GPT3()... the spreadsheet function to rule them all. Impressed with how well it pattern matches from a few examples. The same function looked up state populations, peoples' twitter usernames and employers, and did some math.
