I wonder if your idea - or this "magnetic liquid" - could have application in "artificial muscles"? Fascinating to think about...

I just posted some rambling thoughts in this thread about not having a CS degree (or any real degree) and being successful as a self-taught software engineer. I briefly mentioned how my non-formal studies of religion and philosophy have hel

I'm a mostly self-taught CSE with no CS degree, with well over 25 years of professional experience. I feel that not having the degree has stunted me in some ways, but has also gave me a bit more freedom in others, because I could explo

I'm definitely in agreement with you here; it bothers me a bit to see an instructable or similar where one of the essential requirements always seems to be a 3D printer. It's always a breath of fresh air when that isn't true.
