Well damn! I fired off a post and went to work and the chat got spicy in my absence lol.
But seriously, having used 3D printers both for work and for leisure, they're fantastic machines and software marvels. I'm a MechE and the whole process/stack is just as cool to me as @hoco says it is.
Ive been called a lot of names here, but "sociopath" miiiiiight be a new square to fill ion the bingo card.
People who use a 3D printer vary wildly on whatever "hardware geek" spectrum one uses. You can buy one off the shelf and never upgrade it (that's me) or you can mod the hell out of one or build one from a kit or scratch.
It's not feasible to prevent that kind of tech from printing certain specific objects, especially when a great deal of the utility of 3D printing is designing, modeling, and printing useful (objects) that don't currently exist.
»advanced nanovaccines for cancer immunotherapy« by nanasaheb thorat, a book published by springer, contains the phrase »As an AI language model« on page 25.
this raises a couple of significant questions: is this book still trustworthy, if it was written using an AI that we know produces text containing »alternative facts«. what is the actual harm such a book can cause? what are the quality assurance measures at springer actually worth?
btw. this book costs $100+.
