Nothing flash-in-the-pan about domain-specific languages.
In fact, it's generally considered a smart thing to create domain-specific languages.
You might well have unknowingly created your own, while expanding your configuration file format.
There's no point in learning any of them unless you actually need them, though.

Point is, it's perfectly possible for governments to legally require chips that would regulate and uniquely identify 3D printers.
GP's point was that government cannot possibly regulate 3D printers. Quite obviously they can regulate printers, so why not 3D printers?
Sure, it won't stop dedicated people from printing "illegal" objects, but the remaining 99.999% of 3D printers would be controlled.
How does government regulate color printers from printing paper money?
Don't worry. Copyright laws written by companies selling parts and deliberate obsolescent products will kill 3D printing before it ever gets to the "in every home" state that could enrich civilisation.

He would use no more than what was purchased, so how would they be allowed to charge him more?
Would they be allowed to post-charge for the more expensive shorter flight too, if he somehow didn't make any part of the flight at all?
If you're afraid creating a new product will cannibalise your current market, some other company will create the product and cannibalise your market for you.
Really?
So the fastest way to find whoever cracked a certain safe is to look in the purchase records for any middle-class individuals buying expensive safes?
No. Satan is just Santa, misunderstood.
