I wonder how well this technique would work with the keys to your house... based on say 50 photos of you with your keys dangling, could you reconstruct the key and then 3d print it?

I bought this book, started to read it, then returned it because it was so bad. It reads like an advertisement and it seems to be aimed at old ladies who occasionally use "the googles". People in the industry will find it to be

I work in the software development field and I'd say only 50% of the QA & Dev people use touch typing... and I've worked in 4 different companies.

The author implies that self directly learning is always better than classroom. I can think of examples where this is not true. For example, I know dozens of people who were never formally taught how to touch type on a computer keyboard.

I understand that... but aren't you still going to have smoggy cities with biofuels? Even if they are net carbon neutral, they suck up carbon while being produced and then are burned in cars driving in the city, thus creating smog in
