I got that idea from this design.

Yep, but I made mine first 😬 I believe we were both inspired by the work of Karakurist.

Yes, absolutely. Just needs one motor per digit.

The video exagerates it a bit. But it is audible. Of course the clock will only move once a minute.

It is digital because it has digits instead of pointers. It is also digital in the sense that it has discrete states.

The political ideas you can find on Reddit are much more diverse. There is usually at least some pushback against some of the most deranged statements.

If the live version is already broken, there isn’t much to lose deploying the fix as soon as possible. Not sure what else they could have done here.

In the cases you describe it should fail by ruining the print, not the build plate though. If there is something between the nozzle and the plate, it will be too far away from it after calibration, not too close.

Of course, but I still find it remarkable that the task that was picked as an example for something extremely difficult is now trivially easy just a few years later

The example given in the comic has moved from one category to the other. Determining whether an image contains a bird is a fairly simple “two hour” task now.

Plot twist: The woman in the comic is Fei-Fei Li, she got the research team and five years and succeeded 🤯

This project is now on Printables!

There is no snapping, but the geneva drive will stay locked in position when it is not moving. The thing that I haven’t figured out is how to get the 3 to go back to 0 after 23:59, it needs to skip the numbers 4 to 9.

I’m testing a geneva drive (you can see it in the front in the photo), that should allow me to reduce the number of motors even further. I think I can get it down to two, maybe even one.

This video was the inspiration for my project!

Here you go!

Yes! 🤓

I like using AntennaPod for podcasts and Spotify for music.

Yeah, 3D printers are everywhere. Both as a business and as a hobby, it’s bigger than it has ever been.

It’s not a different discipline, an LLM is an example of a machine learning model.

Nobody knows if and when programming will be automated in a meaningful way. But once we have the tech to do it, we can automate pretty much all work. So I think this will not be a problem for programmers until it’s a problem for everyone.
