As a user from Germany, it would help a lot if you could provide an IBAN to send you money in EUR directly. These payment providers all take a cut and what ends up being used for recurring donations is SEPA direct debit, which costs me about 10€ if my account ever happens do be too low to take the charge. Please make a way around supporting this ecosystem of banking with every donation!
The golf one’s especially weird to me. The overall effect of the fancy gear is that courses doubled in acreage and… you hit the ball over most of that new land on your first stroke anyway (at least, that’s the idea, lol). Like, the advantage is gone as soon as courses adjust, and you’re back to about the same thing, just way bigger (and all-around more expensive). It almost seems like we’d have been better off if ultra-long-range targeted drives had become a separate sport, and golf stayed smaller with “bad” clubs.
I'd strongly disagree, as there are examples of societies that don't exhibit these traits. See the Kogi from Colombia for example. A necessity environmental condition seems to be that social groups size stays within certain limits (around 120 as I remember).
Funny, the next cycle is starting ;-) I remember Vaadin which was a great framework just before angularJS took off. Now Datastar seems to give it another try and bring everyone back to server calls...
This is such a great way to practice! Thank you for creating it! Could you perhaps add pitch indicators on the side and multi touch support? Or maybe it's open source?
I'm not deeply into that topic, but the pan I use that's made of iron was 'burned-in' using linseed oil several times to create a non-sticky surface. Whatever that has as negative side-effects aside, that layer might trap the iron additives quite effectively.
Same here. I can totally imagine the excitement in their engineers eyes after reading this fascinating writeup, paired with their managers anger while they ask for a better way to protect the company's IP.
It’ll have to come from Corsair who now owns Elgato. IMHO, they’re a ‘conventional’ company with stock listed on the exchange. If they respond I will be pleasantly surprised.
Buy one share of their stock, then call investor relations and ask them why a hobbyist was able to fix the LED bug that their support claimed didn't exist while their whole expensive engineering team was not.
>while their whole expensive engineering team was not
Question is maybe not if they could, but if they were allowed to. If the project is already out of development and a bug is detected, sometimes there's only a barebones team left that barely gets the time to do basic maintenance.
