"I'm just gonna call this entire design language iPad Futurism. It applies well to some elements of the car that were fussy in other Ferraris like the steering wheel. It doesn't apply well to the binnacle or infotainment area. Or car interiors in general for that matter. The disappointing part of this is seeing Jony Ive apply pretty plainly rehashed Apple design cues to a lot of components. The shifter in particular reminds me of a lockscreen. The radii applied to all of the squircle displays/panels are classic Apple. In many ways we're just seeing things Ive would've made physical if it were"

I have received a few comments along the lines of "I have a machine shop next door that can cheaply produce steel tools for me faster than 3d printing them" with the subtext being that printing tools is not a great way to make them. This line of reasoning is pretty unfortunate because it begets not only a lack of curiosity--a pretty terminal shortcoming in my experience--but also because if I started with steel tools I would be"

"ok rant FDM printing is just so easy compared to most other ways of making parts. That's the huge strength of the technology and it's why it's so popular. the machines are just so cheap and easy to use. i think a lot of people (including myself) would not be involved in manufacturing at all without 3D printing. It allowed me to make parts when I could not before. The big caveat is that there are practical limits surrounding the technology just by the nature of how it works and FDM enthusiasts focus (almost completely unsuccessfully) on curing those ailments when they can only really be"
