I’ve been busy again. Studying and also recently getting back into the groove of 3D printing. I had an issue last week with my printer not extruding the PLA, but was able to get that fixed with some mechanic work. I initially took the extruder apart to look and see if I could notice anything visually wrong. Nothing looked out of the ordinary there. I changed out the nozzle and tightened it properly and I think that is what fixed the issue. I also got some upgrade parts for my printer that I still need to install.

As for my studies, I feel like I have leveled up. I recently decided to start reading the chapters I am reading aloud and record voice memos of those readings so that I can go back and listen at anytime. I have listened to the first one I made about 3 times already and it is about 30 minutes long. I am going to continue with the audio recordings so that I can always have a copy of what I am reading for future use.

The course I am currently going through is about wireless and mobile device safety and it also goes into wireshark and nmap scanning. I’m studying to finish the course in 28 days although the syllabus says it typically takes students 41 days to finish. I feel pretty confident I can get through the course and submit the two performance assessments that are required by the end of the month, which is the end of the semester.

I just wanted to do a quick update since it has been multiple days since I have written. I want to be more consistent so that I can look back on these one day. We’ll get there.
