I regret not catching that myself, that’s good 😁
- Comment on MIT researchers crack 3D printing with glass — new technique enables inorganic composite glass printed at low temperatures 1 week ago:
My brother’s lab (not at MIT) has been 3D printing optically clear glass for years. They can do all sorts of shapes and figures, though I’m particularly fond of the Yoda heads. If I’m reading this article correctly, the breakthrough they made was with the temperatures they can do it at, and it’s much less to do with the novelty of 3D printing glass. So it’s much less “hey, this is amazing, nobody has ever done this before,” and far more “we did this cool thing in a new and harder way!”
- Comment on It would be fire if Anonymous hacked ICE 1 month ago:
The flight manifests were also released, with passenger info and other flight data. The hacker said they were able to access GlobalX’s AWS buckets to grab and delete data, and they also sent messages to the flight crews directly.

My family has been helping organize my basement for the last week and a half. The new racking I ordered for the tubs should be arrive in a couple days, and at this point I’m starting to think about paint colors for the walls.
I’ve also had three electricians out this week to give me quotes on replacing the breaker box and upgrading my electrical service to 200 amps; I got the first quote yesterday and it was $6,700 (including running a circuit 20 feet and adding a couple outlets in a half-finished storage room), which seems pretty steep. Hopefully the others aren’t as high.
