One of the most common expressions amongst cybersecurity practitioners is “there is no fix for stupid.” This statement is usually accompanied by a shake of the head, laughter, or maybe a shrug. Another version of this sentiment might be “show me something that is fool proof, and I’ll find you a bigger fool.” Inherent in these comments is a sense of…

Manufacturing has traditionally been subtractive. We start with a piece of material, and we subtract material by cutting it away until we have the object we are trying to create. 3D printing, also referred to as additive manufacturing, works in reverse. We begin with a digital representation of an object, and a machine adds filament material to the…
