If I had a penny for every time I had to deal with a project putting something I need behind this messy walled garden...
  • When you consider "my problem is solved this time" as documentation then a discord discussion can be considered good documentation. But If you want documentation as reference for everyone and don't wan't to repeat process/procedures every time some one needs it. It's the worst platform for it. And For documentation we never want the first.

    In this context email lists were the best of the best documentation ever.

  • Fears of ‘irreversible damage’ to literature as AI wins award for sci-fi novel
  • I support people to use any possible tool in their creation process.

    This is not very different than using newer electric tools in cooking vs using the older/habitual techniques. Some may prefer the former, some later. The taste could be different pallet to pallet, or the subtle chemical reactions could cause different outcomes for different foods.

    If the food is tasty, fulfilling and suitable for my pallet what would differ if chopped with a knife or with a blender?

    You can prefer one to the other and who have any right to say no? Just don't forget same applies both ways.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • I hate video links. The information could have been a few paragraphs of text that I could glance. Instead this much minutes of video that you can't search, glance over, read while listening to something else.. So it's a pass for me.

  • Why are (relational) databases preferred over keeping the data in memory?
  • First, persistency. You data lifecycle may not be directly proportional to your applications lifecycle. You may need it even after the app is shut down.

    Second, RDBM systems provide a well defined memory/storage structure and API - "structured query language". This enables you to easily query your data and acquire suitable views that are beneficial for your applications purposes.

    Third, It's always better to outsource your data layer to a battle tested, and trustworty database then trying to reinvent the wheel.

    So this paves a road for you to focus on your business logic than splitting that focus for the data layer and business logic.

  • Curious case of the nozzle leaving the extruder

    To achieve faster speed printing for functional and draft prints, I wanted to try a 1.0mm nozzle with my Neptune 3 Plus. This is the first time I replace a nozzle so I followed YouTube videos and replaced the nozzle. After replacing the nozzle I leveled the bed with manual + automatic leveling. The extruder seemed to be working, taking and extruding the pla filament. Success? Sure not yet .

    I started fiddling with cura profiles, increased line width, layer height, temperatures for head and bed, decreased speed.. Tried a few times to achieve adhesion and printing. So things looked good. After the trial and errors I was satisfied that I could print now.

    I started a 1 and a half hour print. It started well and I went for some tv and started checking the video feed. Things started well, but in time some warping occurred. It was evident that the print would fail. However I wanted to see how things will end up so let it continue. Sure it ended with some spaghetti.

    Everything is as expected up until now. So I returned back to stop the spaghetti. But there was a strange blob at the end of the extruded filament spagetti. And the nozzle was there?!? I am still confused how the nozzle ended up out of the extruder being intact.

    It's great to have this. Being bombarded with USA related EV news which has nearly 0 impact on our lives is pretty tiring.

    Filament crazyness is real.

    I knew it could get out of control, but turns out knowing is not experiencing it. It's just nearly 2 months since I got my first fdm printer and this is the result. 1 roll is finished 12 stacked to go.

    Object Pascal is a modern, readable, fast, type-safe, cross-platform OOP programming language. It is also easy to pick up.
