Re:Launch HN: Adam (YC W25) – Open-Source AI CAD

Is CADAM also what's used for the commercial product adam.new? How did you manage to write all those plugins? If it is also CADAM isn't stuff getting lost in the Fusion/Solidworks/Onshape -> OpenSCAD -> back process? Do constraints and everything just seamlessly import/export?
Some comments here mention tolerances/functional requirements. Do you think the LLM/screenshot loop will scale to that too? Maybe rendering subassemblies individually until they make sense? Still feels like a full functioning V8 engine block needs _a lot_ of ghost-view screenshots to verify it works. What's your thoughts on a "simulation" approach, since it's not aligned with your bitter-lesson-blog-post?
Are you able to reveal more about what kind of traction you have? 10s/100s/1000s of companies?
Very cool open source project, and thanks for sharing so much!

The linked page has 3 down updates, then says it's back up again after the 3rd one.
So presumably resolved.

I love this!
Stupid question: Would BIM solve these issues? I know northern Europe are somewhat advanced in that direction. What kind of digitalization pace do you see in the US?

I see that it is a _nice_ demo, but don't see how this ends up as #1 here?

Expected to see a simple ray tracer break down on some edge case. Saw a simple ray tracer, simply ray trace. Was quite disappointed. Why is this posted? What value does it add?
