As someone who is quite deep into this as hobby I have to agree. "endless" printing is a niche feature that would barely see any use. The reasons are: 1. Just look around you: Where do you see bigger than 300mm^3 (around the maxim

Something that I still don't grasp with React: 1. Your render function runs quite often, e.g. on each state change. 2. But it runs a bit differently sometimes: const [a,setA] = useState(1234); Here "a" will have the value

Also a good check if the site has some sloppy implementation. More than once have I seen that my "+" email was not accepted because of invalid characters. I take this as a sign to not trust the site's security too.

I had the same problem with the article. The article gives me vibes like a shady Indiegogo campaign: - Very professional looking photos, full with filters. Still hard to figure out how it exactly looks. For example how big is it? 10cm? 20cm

That's not the reasoning. He mentions at least one thing: Vinyl records sping with the same speed for the whole record, so the audio quality gets worse toward the end. This is not the case with digital recordings.

Nope, I witnessed the rise of populism in Hungary, its a very interesting story. Mostly because its a small country, so its easier to see behind the curtains and because its in the border of the west-east influence zone. Hungary had far rig
