The fact you chose 1M is telling. If you move 1 Mexican child, at birth, to Tokyo, and that Mexican is brought up by Japanese parents etc, I think you will expect fairly strong conformance to Japanese culture. This is sufficient to disprove a large genetic component in human culture/behaviour.
It probably depends on what material you’re printing with. Keeping ABS from warping in a cold environment would be difficult or even impossible. At the very least it would put new limitations on what shapes are possible to print and constrain your options when it comes to infill.

Well, given the Trump tax plan has passed both houses, I expect it to affect any state with high taxes, be they income (California/NY) or property (Texas). Who needs a double-taxed carrying cost like this? House prices will likely drop IMO.

It looks like they are using either a CoreXY or H-bot based design.

Nice thing about those designs, is that you don't need to accelerate the motors/wiring back and forth. Giving better acceleration rate per unit of motor.

The downside with those systems, is that they tend not to be stiff (due to large amounts of belting), or react to external forces well.

That (H-bot/Core-XY) design would be poor for a convention CNC router, that has to react the forces associated with conventional machining.

But for this application, it doesn't matter. The forces acting on an extruder are basically non-existent, with the exception of (the mass of the extruder * its designed acceleration rate).

For going that fast real time, it might have some trick servos, or a hybrid motor (Search for Technic ClearPath Motors).

I've been feeling this as well and trying to put my finger on exactly whats going on. Despite all of their massive cash reserves, they seem to be developing a fundamental stinginess in just about everything customer facing.

Its really odd that a company riding so very high on cash would spend so much brand reputation to save a few pennies here and there. It was their generosity taking care of customers that helped their brand become so valuable in the first place.

Not for business school. Nothing about business study is particularly rigorous or requires extraordinary intelligence. In truth, being dumb as a rock, but having the right social pedigree and network is totally fine.

The other alternative is to pause the head while the layer cools down. Most slicers have an option for that, although it does increase print times.

Practically all existing 3D printers have this.

The laser does seem novel - most use an electrically heated head nozzle to melt the plastic like a hot glue gun - but I remain skeptical when they list screw feed as an innovative ceature.
If someone blocks you on Twitter, can you still refer to their account using their handle, and their tweets using the URL? If not, then that is an infringement of speech. We should be able to refer to the president's remarks, for instance; otherwise we are hindered from processing that information.
Especially when a platform doesn't have libraries that support it fully. Node and ASP.NET are the only fully async platforms I'm really aware of where this isn't a huge problem. Of course there are others with great but not async concurrency models as well. Regardless, it's definitely a minority of use cases where the concurrency model should even be a priority.
The difference is that there is no physical risk on Twitter, unlike in a public space.

Yeah. I think that was the thing. I'd been using an HP-55 since the campus store had some almost affordable overstock in about 1977. (When I started college, I got a TI scientific calculator because the HPs were still so pricey. Pricing dropped pretty radically over a few years.) I picked up the 28S at one point but I didn't really need a calculator by then for anything fancy and I never got into the UI and clamshell ergonomics.
This site has been around for a very long time, but I checked it the other day and was delighted to see that it's almost entirely green now.
Sure, yes, fine, but it’s not OK that most Americans have been priced out of the nation’s largest, most productive urban centers. It’s not OK that even the “middle class” is spending an unsustainable portion of its income hanging out to these areas with what are basically speculative and ill-advised real estate investment schemes. And it’s not OK that we’re still letting the automobile dominate regions where fixed public transit is the obviously better choice.

The world doesn’t owe anybody anything. You’re right about that. The few white families lucky enough to buy cheap subsidized housing at just the right time in history as new highways ripped through existing (many times conveniently black) neighborhoods didn’t deserve to get rich off that decision.

But here we are.

It’s almost as if deserve’s got nothin to do with it.
I have been writing Django professionally since 2013, It's ain't that bad. Our codebase is huge & it never takes us more than 2 weeks to do it and lately, it has always gotten less and less. Wonder if the issue is with your codebase that it breaks so much on upgrades.

Python3 upgrade is a task, agreed. But it actually gives good returns. The language is nicer to write in and we even saved some memory and CPU on the same load after the upgrade. So highly recommended.
Also though depends on the need right? If I'm making a 3-d print of something that I just want to see a very rough mockup in space, I might trade accuracy for speed if it goes from an hour to < 10 min.

This isn't how data works. It isn't something physical. It's 2017. After the whole media piracy FUD that dragged on for years, everyone should understand how it works. Stanford had the data all along. The article doesn't say that Allcock deleted the data so he may still have it even if he gave Stanford "back" a copy.

Ya know, I remember snarking asking in triages, “so are we quality-driven or date-driven?”, with the assumption being that any idiot would of course want to be quality-driven.

And now you’re telling me companies explicitly choose “date-driven, please”.
Huh. At my last job, we went from 1.7 to 1.11 and while it wasn't seamless, I suspect we spent about that much actual work time making upgrade-related changes/fixes (120ish person-hours) for all of those upgrades combined. We hadn't jumped to Python 3/Django 2 before I left, but we were starting to plan for it. I knew it was going to be painful, but that's part of the cost of holding out for so long, isn't it?
this is absolutely brilliant. i have no idea how nobody thought of this before. it was so obvious, just melt the plastic faster. so blindingly obvious. i have personally spent many hours trying to design a faster printer. its encouraging to know that there was a very elegant solution right under my nose the whole time. maybe there are a few more?
Flask is a great fit with smaller APIs but not tiny like this in my experience. Great support for SQLAlchemy and database migrations. Better than Django ORM in my opinion.

Microsoft Edge Is Now Available in the App Store in the United States
My impression is the goal of this library is to make it a little cleaner than the builder pattern because you don't need the `.send()` at the end. Arguably, it's nice to make the syntax a little more concise if the library is there to hide all of the complicated details from you.

That said, I get uneasy when reading code like the example

send('hello everyone!').to('friends').except('john');

since it doesn't follow my mental model of how programs execute. It's shorter than the builder pattern, but, at least to me, less understandable because there's more magic going on.
Django forces you to declare everything. Lots of manual boilerplate. Example, you must define every bit of a model in order for it to work. Rails is the opposite. ActiveRecord will ‘just work’ with the database. You can run rails on an existing db for example if it follows what are widely used conventions such as lowercase model name is the table, foreign keys are foo_id, etc...

This is where people fear the “magic” of things like pluralization of models to table name and introspection... but it’s all just code! You can read it and look at it and understand it. No magic here. Just convenience and a smaller mental model as an end developer.

Also... resources as a first clsss citizen is the biggest reason and the reason it defeats Django for this use case. You define ‘resources’ in your routing layer instead of just routes that map to a function. This allows you represent multiple crud actions with a single controller and even nest them, all with a few lines of code. Then you get access control for free on your sub resource, knowing you’ve already passed the parent checks and have that context.

Example: /users/:id/photos/:id

In this case, my Photos controller will already know who the user is (and if they can view these photos) based on work that the parent did. It’s single responsibility principle. You can even have a top level photos resource devoid of the user context and support both cases with minimal effort.

Yes, you can do these things in Django. But it’s not designed to make these things composable and seamless. I’d argue it’s not REST-friendly. Don’t even get me started on Django Rest Framework which is a massive beast in and of itself.

You get all of that out if the box on Rails. You can stand up extremely robust and ergonomic API’s with so little code you’ll feel like your cheating.

I should probably write a blog post.
Even if Twitter had some capability to block WhitePower.com or BlackPower.com from showing Tweets, referring to a instance of a communication can always be done the old fashioned way:

Example: This week the New York Times interviewed the president who said "I love people."

No more issues - everyone is allowed to share, read, and post their own views on the mediums that will allow, and are capable of creating their own medium in the US.
How is this a WF issue? I mean I’m no Wells Fargo supporter. They are the scummiest of banks, but in this case the money is probably sitting with Apple iTunes since it’s converted to an iTunes gift card. As a result it’s Apple that likely has control over it.

Also, a more relevant analogy would be if you accidentally chose a Roomba using your WF credit, it was delivered home, and then realized you actually wanted a Braava. You’d hope that iRobot would be ok with you returning the Roomba and then sending you an equivalently proved Braava instead. If they didn’t that would be even more excusable because it’s a physical product with shipping costs, etc. The scenario mentioned is a digital transfer of funds which should be significantly easier.
Lightning Network seems to me to be a hybrid solution that uses the best of both worlds: the security and stability of the main block chain for the overall holding and occasional transfer of large amounts of wealth between large organizations, while having offchain networks to experiment with different solutions for handling lots of small transactions quickly, while address still bring compatible with the main block chain.

Regarding rsync.net, I'm sorry but I won't trust any company to protect my data if they can't spend a few minutes to put an SSL certificate on their website. The rsync.net url just redirects to an http link with no SSL certificate.
And also because it costs them nothing and they have nothing to lose.

This really should be a no brainer for Apple, even if they do t allow it.

That's surprising to me as I have updated a large production Django code-base on my own for every version from 1.5 to 2.0 and it has never taken me more than a day, with an equal or lesser (typically lesser) amount of time dedicated to deprecations when I updated to the previous version. Any blockers past that point have always been due to slow-to-update third-party libraries.

The Python 3 update took longer and had a longer legacy of surprise breakages, but I don't ding Django for following the intended life cycle of Python.
Well. I disagree that it is not a real thing. For better debugging, you need to know more what's behind the scenes. Personally, I have seen some of my colleagues struggling to find the cause or better architect the thing because most of the decision has been hidden/taken by the framework. Not saying, it's true for all Rails dev but for some beginners, it really bites them.
I’ve done some consulting with higher education, but am not an expert in the vertical.

My opinion, based on my observation at a half dozen campuses is that academic computing is ok, but the central services type stuff (payroll, admissions, accounting, HR) is often underfunded and struggling to meet mushrooming compliance requirements.

Compared to a similar sized organization in another sector, they aren’t as good as a bank, .gov revenue department or insurance company. But they are better than a municipal government, k-12, or retail.
>Practically all existing 3D printers have this.

No, usually they have a rotary feeder, i.e. "pinch-wheel", it seems like what they propose is a screw feeder, likely a screw with the axis roughly in the same direction as the filament, with "higher grip" on the filament, but probably it depends also on the specific filament material:

>"In most desktop 3-D printers, plastic is fed through a nozzle via a “pinch-wheel” mechanism, in which two small wheels within the printhead rotate and push the plastic, or filament, forward. This works well at relatively slow speeds, but if more force were applied to speed up the process, at a certain point the wheels would lose their grip on the material — a “mechanical disadvantage,” as Hart puts it, that limits how fast the printhead can push material through.

Hart and Go chose to do away with the pinchwheel design, replacing it with a screw mechanism that turns within the printhead. The team fed a textured plastic filament onto the screw, and as the screw turned, it gripped onto the filament’s textured surface and was able to feed the filament through the nozzle at higher forces and speeds.

Right. It’s a change in version numbering scheme. Not any major backwards compatibility. It will bump every two years from now on.
The article also mentions gender and discrimination based upon nationality which could be suggestive of racial discrimination as well. Women are biased over men, foreign over domestic. This is not uncommon and likely legal (see: Fisher vs University of Texas 2016 [1]) for now, but I also would like to see universities required to acknowledge the discrimination. Calling things equal or need based and then actively engaging in racial and gender biases is quite absurd.

> The Macbook Pro is the best laptop out there as a power/battery life/build quality combo

Says who? I think Surface book/pro and Dell XPS have caught up and in some ways surpassed MBpro.

> The iPhone X is top notch

Don't disagree, but the hardware is nothing special. We have had this quality and refinement in Android flagships for a couple of years now. Apple has just caught up to the state of the art.

> The Apple Watch is the best in its kind technologically

Bullshit. Smart watches with better features, better hardware and better battery life have existed for a long while now. The iwatch is good, but not better than any other comparable watch out there, hardware-wise.

> The iPad continues to be the best tablet technology wise.

I think you're repeatedly conflating sales/revenue numbers with hardware and technological superiority. MBpro, iphone x, iwatch, ipad all are very well made and very high-tech products. They all have nice hardware. I am particularly impressed by the face mapping tech in iphone. But all of them are about at par with any high-end laptop, phone or tablet. In fact there are laptops with windows hello, which work very well for face login. The Galaxy phones pack in a lot of hardware features and have had a futuristic design which apple has just come around to copying. There is no clear hardware superiority in apple's products.

I didn’t mean to imply employment gaps, just that people who can’t program do a lot more job interviews than people who can.
Tax is complicated, however:

1. Fewer tax brackets. Many software engineers are in the 28% and 33% brackets. A lot of these people will now be in the 35% bracket, depending on their exact income.

2. Standard deduction has been increased. More money in their pocket (though this is true with many)

3. Mortgage interest deduction -- this might be removed to only 500k. This means people in california won't be able to deduct as much for their expensive houses.

There are many more things, obviously.
