Solves problem of being out at a group dinner and figuring out how much you owe the one person who inevitably put their card down. Take a photo of your receipt, it digitizes it in seconds, and gives a link to text to your friends/acquaintances. They open, click what they ordered, it proportionally adds tax and tip. No APP required, nor an account. That would be friction.

Agreed about Roblox!! Started (unintentionally) teaching myself how to program on Roblox when I was 9, and turned it into a career! Making games encompasses so many areas of programming/creation. Even beyond programming (back end, front end, UI), music composition, sound effects, animation, design, game design.. and share it all with your friends. Alternatively, a simple engine like Love2D (which also happens to be Lua)

Pretty darn cool hearing from you! But yes, you're correct on both points :)

This % includes cost of all game server hosting, databases, memory stores, etc. even with millions of concurrents, app store fees, etc. All included in that number. Developer gets effectively pure profit for the sole cost of programming/designing a great game. Taught me how to program, & changed my entire future. Disclosure: My game is one of most popular on the platform.

As one of the top developers on the platform (& 22 y/o, taught myself how to program through Roblox, ~13 years ago), I can say that it seems a majority of us in the developer community are quite unhappy with the image this video portrays. We love Roblox.

This trick has certainly saved me more times than I am willing to admit! I usually roll with: `fallocate -l 8G DELETE_IF_OUT_OF_SPACE.img`
