Here's a recording running through caps themes and filament colors, caps is a cap creation site I'm working on.

Comparing Depth Of Color In Esc Keys
Running some test prints on keycaps using some different fonts, the group on the left (top) was done first with 0.4 mm depth and the right (bottom) was done with a 2 mm depth, the colors came out much more vibrant without the black blending in.

Mid Print On A New Set Of Caps
The legends were cut quite a bit deeper in this set I think the color is going to come out much more vibrant
First Set Of Caps Printed From Caps.waylonwalker.com
This first set of caps printed for real off my new https://caps.waylonwalker.com app came out really well, I can tell the legend cut is not deep enough and the two colors are mixing too much. I'm actually surprised at how much I like the thinner sets better than the thicker sets, I thought thicker would have done better prints.

Caps Got Good Adhesion
No raft straight on the bed with a 0.4 mm sink into the plate stuck really well, none fell off mid-print. I've struggled to get grids of caps to print well in the past.
First iteration of the caps app is working, I cannot believe it.
Blogging and blog setups Jack Baty's blog — posts, journal, notes. baty.net · baty.net Damn this hits. I’m trying to change it up, but I’m far on the right. constantly greasing the pipeline and writing about it. or lately just not writing at all.
It Kept Printing Sideways
After a particularly tall print vibrations had moved my ams under the gantry of my Bambu A1 so when it started its next print, it lifted it up, it's safe, no printer was harmed, but this was a close call.
This was the biggest routing job I've done yet on the Bosch Colt, it really worked the motor. I ended up feeling like high speed was controlling its speed better and keeping it cooler, contrary to what I would think was right.

thinking about headlines

I updated [plaindown](https://waylonwalker.com/) to support _cool_ heading formats, and I'm digging it, markata you are next. Time to make the web weird again and really start writing more again. ![b7e0cda4-779c-4ffa-9865-1e1981fcb91b.webp](https://dropper.waylonwalker.com/file/b7e0cda4-779c-4ffa-9865-1e1981fcb91b.webp) --- ## The code to make it ~~easy~~ ^**fun**^ to write Here's the `markdown` that wrote it followed by the output here. ``` md # Build **good places** for _interesting people_. ## Make room for ==the weird idea.== Some normal paragraph text between headings. ## Build a `personal web` that feels ^**yours**^.

Interesting tangent here on sleep, Adam talks about jet lag and his experience taking Ambien to shift his sleep schedule. In his experience it helped fix the sleep schedule, but did nothing to change how he actually felt during that time of reorienting in a new drastically different time zone. He was reminded of all of the sleep studies they did on MythBusters and how they found that it did not matter so much how much “sleep” you got that lying there still and quiet was nearly as effective as sleeping. Knowing this, as others mentioned, will greatly relieve the sleep pressure I feel on nights of restlessness.
