Pokes for trade from MrflipMrflip

Link: https://gist.github.com/mrflip/c73d44e754e17905632649d8cbae28c8

I don’t super care about shinies, so I'd be happiest with a trade that improves my raid team while either filling a hole in your pokedex or improving your team. Please let me know what shiny/legacy/legendaries/L1’s you hoping to acquire/improve -- but I would strongly prefer not do a 40k trade (see bottom for which trades those are).

For casual players: If you don't have much in your pokedex, I would like to help improve it and do not need you to improve mine. I can offer the following:

  • L20 Dragonite, Bite Tyranitar, Machamp, Lick Gengar
  • Carnivine, Heracross, Farfetch'd, Safari/Santa Pika, Flower eevee, happiny, budew, bonsly, other hard-to-find.

Career Day Interview with Ethan Grigsby

Career Day Interview with Ethan Grigsby

What is your name? What is your career?

My name is Flip Kromer, I’m an inventor and entrepreneur — meaning that I start businesses from scratch. Added all up, the companies I’ve started earn tens of millions each year in revenue, and have grown from a couple friends at the start to create more than eighty highly satisfying jobs.

What do you do at your job?

My latest company is Vigilante, a restaurant with more than 150 board games to play right at your table. I designed and worked to build special tables that make playing board games super awesome: dice, chargers, card holders and other fun things are built into the table. Probably the most magical feature is that each table has a robot above it — when you push the button at your seat the robot waves its arms, which tells the server to come over and take your order or bring you a fork or help you with a game. I custom designed the mechanics of the robot and the tiny computers inside each robot and each table

Veneer is obtained either by "peeling" the trunk of a tree or by slicing large rectangular blocks of wood known as flitches. The appearance of the grain and figure in wood comes from slicing through the growth rings of a tree and depends upon the angle at which the wood is sliced. There are three main types of veneer-making equipment used commercially:

A rotary lathe in which the wood is turned against a very sharp blade and peeled off in one continuous or semi-continuous roll. Rotary-cut veneer is mainly used for plywood, as the appearance is not desirable because the veneer is cut concentric to the growth rings.

A slicing machine in which the flitch or piece of log is raised and lowered against the blade and slices of the log are made. This yields veneer that looks like sawn pieces of wood, cut across the growth rings; such veneer is referred to as "crown cut".

A half-round lathe in which the log or piece of log can be turned and moved in such a way as to expose the most interesting parts of the grain, c

Roomie Remote Image Remotes borken

I am trying to make a custom image remote. Roomie crashes even on a trivial modification to the DDK example.

I've tried a whole lot of things, but here I'll describe the most minimal test case I can conceive.

First, I reset my enviroment back to zero:

  • I first reset my configuration
  • Disabled Dropbox polling and Wifi sync
  • Removed ~/Dropbox/Roomie
