  • Holy crap. So I tried a pack of the Green PETG (still Kingroon) and the first print didn't go well. It didn't like .3mm on a .4mm nozzle.

    This happened:

    A bit of a clog and other weirdness.

    I took the default Cura PETG settings for .4mm nozzle, swapped to .2mm (fast) default settings then set fan to 50% and temperature to 230C.. I got a beautiful benchy:

    It's beautiful.

    I guess it seems like maybe something is just wrong with that roll of blue..

    Makes me wonder if a Bambu or some other more set/forget kind of printer would have been able to print it somehow. Maybe I'll try again one day.

    Thanks everyone so much for all.

  • It pretty much self clogged a few layers in. So about the same?

  • What should I see differently with retraction off? Like it failed but what should I look for then try next?

  • For good measure I tried going direct from the dryer to the hot end (and just left a piece in the runout sensor to have it not trip). More/less the same problems: https://imgur.com/a/65jzAQv .. I stopped it early since it was failing terribly. Otherwise was using default cura generic PETG settings on .3mm per layer with .4mm nozzle.

  • What's the recommendation to fix under extrusion? I tried changing the flow in cura to 102 then later to 118.. no obvious differences.

  • I instead tried printing directly from the spool holder immediately after taking it out of the dryer. Same thing happened. I doubt it could have moisture-d up that fast for it to make a difference

  • What are some of the worst code you have seen in a production environment?

    Jump

  • There was something like 

     
        
# sleep for about a second on modern processors
math.factorial(10000)

    After it was found we left it in the code but commented out along with a sleep(1) for posterity.

  • At least at my Costco we never had sauerkraut. We had the onion dispenser thing before COVID. Now if you ask, they give you onions.

    Sauerkraut is one of the reasons I enjoy Sam's dogs more.

  • I now have call recording on Android

  • Probably a line about how they're not liable if you record in a place where recording isn't allowed.

  • Yeah I hate when I read through a unit test and realize it doesn't actually test anything other than itself.

  • Is anyone just like... very terrified of losing your memories?

  • Well if you forget them, you wouldn't remember them to forget them.

    Though seriously, I find interviews, photos, videos even of people telling stories helps. It's the same idea that documentaries use to tell stories.

  • I've thought about this wrt to AI and work. Every time I sit in a post mortem it's about human errors and process fixes.

    The day a post mortem ends with "well the AI did it so nothing we can do" is the day I look towards.. with dread.

  • PETG weird edge issue

    Jump

  • Figures. Next print will have the filament sit in the dryer for a few hours first. Thanks!

  • Mine printed at 60mm/s. I need to try changing the retraction around a bit.

    Do people re-calibrate this stuff for every print or per roll or per brand? I yearn for a day when I could just hit print and it goes.
