First print for my mini rack and my first print with PETG! Looking good so far!

A 3D printer in operation, printing a light gray object with a honeycomb pattern in the middle. The printer head is visible above the model, which is being printed on an Elegoo textured build plate inside an enclosed printer labeled ‘Centauri Carbon’.

Made it out to Castlewood Canyon State Park. 10/10 would recommend. This is the only picture I got, my partner has the pretty ones 🤣

Went for a walk at the Garden of the Gods and saw these bighorn sheep today!

This image shows several bighorn sheep resting on reddish soil in an arid landscape. They have prominent curved horns and are lounging among sparse desert vegetation including juniper trees and small shrubs. Tall rocky cliffs rise in the background against a clear blue sky.

Got outside today and touched some grass today. Over the last few weeks this has been something sorely needed and I’m so glad I have access to views like these in Colorado. Take some time for yourself this week, you’ll thank yourself for it later.

A scenic outdoor shot of a reddish-brown rocky cliff face with visible layers and crevices, dotted with dark green trees growing on top. The cliff is surrounded by a dense forest of pine trees, with varying shades of green, under a clear, bright blue sky with no clouds. The horizon line shows a continuation of the forested landscape.

A quick and useful MCP server using @jlowin.dev's awesome FastMCP library. Made this super easy to implement and use!

Code snippet showing Python code for clipboard functionality using FastMCP. The code imports FastMCP, creates an instance with "Testing" parameter, and defines a copy_to_clipboard function using pyperclip to copy content to the system clipboard.

Put together a 10” mini-rack today, still have a few things to figure out but I really did miss having a rack!

A rack-mounted home network setup showing a TerraMaster NAS device at the bottom with 4 drive bays, and several networking components above it including switches with green LED indicators and ethernet cables. The equipment is housed in a silver/grey rack mount case positioned against a white wall on wooden flooring.

Beautiful day for a hike with my partner and pup! I do love Colorado!

A scenic mountain landscape in Colorado showing Pikes Peak, snow-capped and majestic, rising above a foreground of pine trees and brown winter grass. The sky is bright blue with wispy white clouds, and patches of snow can be seen on the ground.

I think the worst part about the @mm-hacker-news.bsky.social account is that you get these blocks of like 5 posts in a row clearly posting them all at around the same time. So my feed sometimes looks like this.

Alright! We finally have Python type hints for our PDB parser! Still a few things to clean-up but things are looking great!
