Dark Foggy Tunnel

As always with Charity Majors this was a pretty great interview. Lots of repeat ideas with some good nuggets. One common new theme here is getting comfortable shipping code you have never seen before. Pointing out there are few real differences in the before and the now, a lot of the same priciple apply to get the right #obervability stack setup, the right deployment patterns setup. Now we don’t have a person that immediately jumps up and yell’s I wrote that, Sorry everyone, and has a fix in 2 minutes because they know the exact failure mode they caused in an instant. Charity truely believes the kids will be alright. She is working with some high school aged kids making some incredible projects right now. The industry will need to learn how to re-embrace juniors and the non grey-beards. Why I’m sharing this link.

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 .4mm depth and the right(bottom) was done with a 2mm depth, the colors came out much more vibrant without the black blending in.

Mid Print On A New Set Of Caps
The ledends 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 .4mm sink into the plate stuck really well, none fell off mid print. I've strugged to get grids of caps to print well in the past.
First iteration of the caps app is working, I cannot believe it.
