Super cool and well done. They are much better in 3D! :) I made a similar experiment a while ago and randomized the parameters. Given it's difficult to stumble on a stable arrangement, I turned it into a small game to find pretty ones: (big disclaimer: this involves NFT tech, please skip if you're against that sort of stuff) https://karimjedda.com/symmetry-in-chaos-my-first-generative...

HN discussionThis has been a great help to get started but was missing the "guide me through it" part for me. I wrote an article with some code samples for writing Rust code coming from a Python background (data engineering). It's great to see many "Pythonistas" getting interested / curious about Rust. I'm certain there is a lot of good things in both languages even though the onboarding experience is a bit more hands on with Py…
