Hard to say what exactly a PhD teaches. It is a unique type of qualification that varies radically between situations, even in the same department. I can definitely say there is a difference between people with and without a doctorate, but many of the skills gained are soft skills.

“The electronic song “Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites” reduces host attack and mating success in the dengue vector Aedes aegypti” - original article title.

I use my laptop for data processing, but most of my tasks can be adequately handled from my phone. There are days when I don’t open my computer when I get home from work.

The temp of the bed or nozzle? I am using generic PLA.

Ok, I am having trouble uploading the video. Anyway, all of the prints will be fine up to a point, then detach. The nozzle is colliding with the models. In some cases, I can see the model being pushed down on one side or other by the nozzle before it detaches.

Everything is failing. There are definitely collisions happening.

How do you reduce the thickness of the first layer?

I live in an area that routinely has 70% humidity. My prints are consistently stringy, and I know it is because of the wet filament. I use an A1 Mini with AMS. Is there a solution, or am I doomed to stringy prints?

Yeah, my first thought when I saw this was that it was definitely not made by a scientist.

The Russians have simply continued the count of the Soviet Luna missions.

I love Tartu, but last I heard, the pay and funding sucked. How is it now?

Media during the election:

Kamala said “from” instead of “to” – does she have what it takes to lead the country?

Next up, how ripping apart trade agreements while pretending to be a truck driver is the what America needs.

It is pretty standard practice. For one, it helps people who read or review your work know who they are dealing with. For another, it helps the general public understand who scientists are. Part of the mission is to make sure that the next generation carries the work on, and by emphasizing the human aspect of the science, young people can actually imagine themselves getting to that point some day.

Yes

How did you diagnose that?

Either 65°C or 70°C

I didn’t take the photo immediately - tried cleaning a bit before it occurred to me to document it.

Interesting. All of my prints that failed were running overnight when the temperature dropped.

Thanks. I am really frustrated with myself for letting this happen. Pulled everything apart and recovered most of everything, but managed to damage the clip that holds the extruder in place, so now I get to learn how to do surgery and replace the entire assembly. I wish I had gotten a bit more time before having to do a major repair…

I’ve been printing for two weeks, and I had one.
