Competition is a good thing.

There’s an old Dr. Atomic comic book about the retrieval of a crashed alien spacecraft that was printed but was flawed because the society that built it had dumbed down to the point where they could no longer maintain the printer.

3-D Printer Ping!

Some day her prints will come.

10X quicker than we originally thought...

Wow, is it just me or does it seem like we’re going to need a new Moore’s Law for 3D printers? Instead of doubling in performance every 18 months, it seems 3D printers are out-stripping that by a huge margin, which is amazing since we are already talking about a very rapid exponential improvement when it comes to our computers... or maybe printers aren’t going to be able to maintain that pace? Anyway, very exciting, very cool. Can’t wait.
