This is about being able to package and provide the Weta toolset to Unity developers. Imagine making video games with the Weta toolset.

Exactly what I do and I love it. The AppleTV Plex app was a game changer.

If we learned anything from Lawn Darts, it was this.

Maybe.

Roll? Pitch? Yaw? Engine RPM? Prop pitch?

Those are “most” of the controls... none of which require touchscreens.

What controls are you referring to specifically?

Then don’t upgrade.

Unfortunately, just because you spend more doesn’t mean you get what you pay for.

I spent 3 years in an education startup and I never saw such a correlation.

First time I saw it was surreal.

I was on a wine tour and on the way back to the hotel looked out the window and was gobsmacked. “Woah... that’s the Spruce Goose! The Spruce Goose is here!?!”

Cancelled the next day’s tour and hit up the museum instead.

Highly recommended.

If your team can't check on that stuff manually for a few hours while Slack is down, then I think you may have bigger problems.

If anyone on my team came to me and cited Slack being down as a reason for their inability to do their job, then they wouldn't be on my team.

Is it less than ideal? Yes. Is it a little bit less efficient to pull info instead of having it pushed to you? Yes.

Is the sky falling? No.

Then how do you explain the Maersk blockchain-based insurance trial that they found very successful?

Bitcoin is not the only incentive that can be had in implementing blockchain technology.

There are a number of very promising use cases for blockchain, in education, healthcare, energy... none of which involve bitcoin at all.

Try to set up a sprinkler on the roof and just leave it... it'll go a long way to knock down any embers that may land on it.

It's called a battery isolator, and it's basically a monster diode from the alternator to the battery. Very common setup for RV's, etc.

I had one set up in my Jeep so that it would charge the deep cycle marine battery for my fishing pontoon's electric motor... way, way faster than anything you plug into the wall.

There were 5 of them that competed in this year's 24 Hours of Daytona, and Lambo is looking at an LMP1 car for Le Mans next year.
