@middleearth.quest is fun and low-speed enough I’ll probably never get tired of it. Also, I got a cool piece of gear. Heck yeah! ✨ LEGENDARY FIND! You found: dragon-scale armor 🐉 ⚔️ Strength: +50 🍀 Fortune: +1 💨 Speed: -1

I had amazing donuts this morning. I am now experiencing the hunger that comes when all you have is sugar in the morning.
Six cream filled donuts in a box on a counter. The box is labeled “the flour box Seattle, WA” on the inside of the lid.
On the left are two apple filled donuts, on the right are two Biscoff donuts, and in the middle are an almond cookie donut and a chocolate and tahini donut.

The Biscoff might be the best donut I’ve ever had.

FCC labels for 2 new AMSes and a 3D scanner (called the S1) have also been approved. And an x2d pro, if you’re into Ethernet and reseller support.

The patent diagrams in question that are behind the h3c speculation. It looks like a rack of 10 AMSHTs mounted on top of an H2-sized chassis, with indx-style toolhead and nozzles and rack.

If my X1C died and I needed a new printer today, I would absolutely get a U1 to replace it!

In case you’re interested in a Bambu lab printer, and aren’t as terminally online as I am: wait. FCC labels have been approved for P3C and H3C printer models. Speculation based on some patent diagrams is that they’ll be indx-like toolchangers.

If I could reliably offload correctness to a machine, I wouldn’t want to do that work either. But I know that the moment the machine says “yup, code’s correct”, mostly the human reviewers stop and we don’t get all those other things.

Really enjoyed this read about how much more there is in code review than just correctness. www.adaptivecapacitylabs.com/2026/08/24/t...

Mandala Firethorn build plate — Will It Stick
Undeniably the GOAT for material compatibility right now. Prints many materials at lower temps than any other plate and holds on. Rarely needs preps that other plates require for warp-prone materials....

willitstick.fyi doesn't even ask you to make an account to submit results. It tries to get as out of your way as possible to reduce the friction of submitting, so we can fill out this giant matrix. Want a new plate, material, or filament? There's a form to request it.

Ever wondered if the filament you're printing will stick to the build plate you're using? Every time someone tests this, it stays in their head. What if instead, we shared standard test results? willitstick.fyi is my attempt at community science for plate/bed adhesion. #3dprinting

Sharing this with everyone I know:
From John Cutler on linkedin:

One reason some neurodivergent people (hello!) are good at strategy is that we are willing to push harder on incoherence than other people. We can push until a pattern falls out.

Of course this same skill/superpower gets you so deep that everyone else has left the room by the time the pattern finally appears.

The "bias to action" person may interpret the behavior as:

"You're uncomfortable with ambiguity, so you keep asking questions."

But the internal experience might be closer to:

"No, I'm very comfortable in ambiguity. I'm swimming in it. What I'm uncomfortable with is everyone pretending we are no longer in it."
