Anybody working on this project here? I'm genuinely curious if they've invented some new photopolymer resin that cures faster. Current 3D Printers need to make the same leap as desktop printers did from dot matrix to laser in spee

Strangely enough, the kind of immersive experience technology that Magic Leap is developing might just help with that problem.

I would add that it's not just end-of-life decisions that we ignore or fear but anything long term or non-acute. Modern medicine is geared towards getting better quickly but there are certain ailments, be it old age, a traumatic brain

There will be things that your insurance plan will just randomly decide not to cover or worse, you just don't have the right kind of insurance for what you need. Both my parents have suffered strokes. My father had to go to a step down

I think this is something a lot of people miss. I actually think it's ok to say you're busy even if that time is spent staring at a wall and I hate that people should feel guilty for wanting that. Cheers for knowing that you need

Fantastic! I did a quick one over of the docs but didn't think to look there.

Impressive work! I'd love to see Google Doc's revision history applied here so I don't have to worry so much about losing my work. As a coder who does 3d modeling, I've always been irked by the lack of version control in

This is a refreshing reminder to dig deeper. I'm always waiting for the right tool to come around to do the job (cheap hi-res 3d printing for example) but sometimes a good enough solution just might be sitting in front of you. Thanks f

I'm an avid Sketch-up user (printing primarily with the Replicator 2) but I've been super impressed by www.tinkercad.com lately. It's browser based (WebGL) but surprisingly powerful.
