Earlier, Liberal Leader Mark Carney proposed a housing plan that would increase the construction of housing to nearly 500,000 new homes a year, "flipping the script on housing with a new approach to build faster, build smarter, and to build more affordably." #cdnpoli #elxn2025

This is the Meltio Engine, a 3D printer that creates metal parts with high precision. It uses laser-based technology with wire and powder together to build complex parts layer by layer. It is faster than traditional methods and can also repair or upgrade existing metal parts.

While printer paper replacement is a maintenance task, it's a rather simple process, with most pilots doing it once in a while. The new printer makes this task even more "one-handed." Fun Fact: Each printer roll has 90 feet of printing, and a red stripe on the paper indicates the end of the roll. The A320 can store up to 3 more rolls at the back.

China has unveiled a next-generation fire truck equipped with a built-in drone for extinguishing fires in high-rise buildings The drone is integrated directly into the vehicle’s roof. It can ascend to 200 meters and put out fires in areas unreachable for conventional fire engines. The copter deploys in under a minute and sprays water up to 45 meters. According to the developers, the system will allow for much faster response to fires in tall structures. Deployment of these vehicles will begin this month.

Valar Atomics Founder Isaiah Taylor - making nuclear reactors says nuclear has a fundamental advantage over natural gas for powering AI data centers because it can scale faster and isn't constrained by pipeline infrastructure. "We believe that nuclear has some fundamental scaling advantages over something like gas. The climate impact is a big part." "The other problem with gas generation is it has really backed up turbines, and it also has natural gas infrastructure that has to scale along with it. We're running out of places where you can just plop down a turbine without having to go and lay pipeline." "With uranium, you have one truckload that delivers an entire year's worth of fuel. That gives you a lot more flexibility on where you build the reactors and how big you can scale those sites. Nuclear has this fundamental advantage."

MVDream: Multi-view Diffusion for 3D Generation paper page: propose MVDream, a multi-view diffusion model that is able to generate geometrically consistent multi-view images from a given text prompt. By leveraging image diffusion models pre-trained on large-scale web datasets and a multi-view dataset rendered from 3D assets, the resulting multi-view diffusion model can achieve both the generalizability of 2D diffusion and the consistency of 3D data. Such a model can thus be applied as a multi-view prior for 3D generation via Score Distillation Sampling, where it greatly improves the stability of existing 2D-lifting methods by solving the 3D consistency problem. Finally, we show that the multi-view diffusion model can also be fine-tuned under a few shot setting for personalized 3D generation, i.e. DreamBooth3D application, where the consistency can be maintained after learning the subject identity.

Do you call it 4D printing, if the platform moves as well 🤔 3D printing just got a serious upgrade A new five-axis printer can handle 70° overhangs, no support structures needed. This breaks traditional limitations and opens the door to more complex, curved designs. Perfect for engineers and designers pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. Exciting times for the future of additive manufacturing.

🖨️ It took over a year and lots of help from Claude Code but I have now been able to create a real dot matrix printer on the web that prints from Windows 3.11 in your browser: Here's the test page: I couldn't get the LPT1 port to work but COM2 did work (the dial up model already uses COM1), the JS receives the COM2 serial data (just raw print data) and then prints it Next is to make the dot matrix printer better looking (kinda 3d like on pieter dot com) and have the paper also flowing in 3d out of the printer and integrate it on the page My idea was that it might work because we also capture the COM1 data (from the dial up modem) and send it to a Websocket as a dial up connection, so we should be able to capture the COM2 traffic too but I didn't know how, but now I do IT WORKS!! 😊

🇺🇸 WORLD’S LARGEST 3D-PRINTED NEIGHBORHOOD NEARS COMPLETION The 45 feet (13.7 m) wide 3D-printer from ICON is finishing the last few houses in Wolf Ranch, a community in Georgetown, Texas, about 30 miles from Austin. ICON began the project in November 2022 and the company says this method is much more cost-efficient and minimizes waste. ICON senior project manager Conner Jenkins: "It brings a lot of efficiency to the trade market. So, where there were maybe five different crews coming in to build a wall system, we now have one crew and one robot." Source: Reuters
