| schestowitz | <blockquote> | May 08 08:18 |
| schestowitz | <p>Similar to how the International Space Station maintains its orientation, the team’s scaled prototype system relies on a rotating flywheel that generates large amounts of angular momentum in a certain axis. A brushless DC motor and driver are responsible for spinning up the circular mass, while a servo motor on one side rotates the cradle to the desired angle. All of this is done with an Arduino Uno that | May 08 08:18 |

| schestowitz | re Richard Graveley | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:46] <source> Alex's dad was a navy coderr | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:46] <source> Then he started a tech company in the 90s | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:46] <source> And then he used that money to become a venture capitalist | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:47] <source> The longer history of their family is a bit mysterious to me my understanding is the cult separated them from the extended family | May 08 19:02 |

| schestowitz | I hope it is WELL established by now that Team Mono does NOT use GNU/Linux. They don't care about GNU/Linux either. They're Microsoft pushers. | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:51] <schestowitz> thanks, but back to technical aspects | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:51] <schestowitz> notably github | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:51] <schestowitz> did he ever mention mono by name? | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:52] <source> I asked him if he still used to linux on his laptop | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:52] <source> Uses OS X | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:52] <schestowitz> mono people never cared about freedom | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:53] <source> To be perfectly clear Alex was unemployed when we were together | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:53] <source> Described himself as semi retired | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:53] <schestowitz> lol | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:53] <source> He had just moved to Austin | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:54] <source> He was living with his father, step mother and 11 year old half brother | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:54] <source> Why this was acceptable to me? | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:54] <source> He explained it as being there to help his father with dialysis treatments | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:54] <source> Which sounded honorable | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:55] <source> Anyways I know that's not super of interest but We didn't talk about his work that much | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:55] <source> He introduced himself mostly based off the dropbox paper thing | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:55] <source> He complained that he had been unfairly forced out | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:56] <source> Which made sense because I've seen a lot of the start of drama and a lot of it is people getting pushed out once the product is valuable to gain control over the money | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:56] <source> I later learned that the reason why Alex was actually pushed out of dropbox was because he was verbally abusive to his coworkers | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:56] <source> Who knows maybe dropbox would've never pushed him out if they weren't trying to steal his work or whatever | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:57] <source> Maybe the only reason they validated the abuse claims was because they wanted his work and wanted to cut his equity deal | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:57] <source> From my experience that seems likely | May 08 19:02 |
| schestowitz | [19:58] <schestowitz> i see | May 08 19:03 |
| schestowitz | [19:58] <source> with regards to the github stuff there was always an underlying threat that He would tell his network and ruin me if I didn't comply | May 08 19:03 |
| schestowitz | [19:59] <source> A few months after the break Up there was this weird situation at my job | May 08 19:03 |
| schestowitz | [19:59] <source> This was before Covid and we were in the office | May 08 19:03 |
| schestowitz | [19:59] <source> The CTO of my company was visiting from San Francisco in the Austin office | May 08 19:03 |
| schestowitz | [20:00] <source> He stood by my desk and loudly bragged about how he was friends with Nat and kept glancing at me | May 08 19:03 |
| schestowitz | [20:00] <source> Maybe it was a coincidence and everybody likes to name drop | May 08 19:03 |
| schestowitz | [20:00] <source> Brian xxxxxxxxxxxxxx | May 08 19:03 |
| schestowitz | [20:01] <source> Who honestly doesn't have the right credentials to be a CTO, but BigCommerce is a technical nightmare | May 08 19:03 |

| schestowitz | The Kosovo stuff struck a nerve to the point where merely linking to it got TuxMachines an email from one of (IIRC) the organisers. | May 08 23:49 |
| schestowitz | The "Mossad" post was problematic for deducing one's nationality implies Mossad employment; it's like accusing every American Debian developer of being a CIA mole. | May 08 23:49 |
| schestowitz | I've run Boycott Novell since 2006 and I know one single factual error or claim that cannot be supported can undo or distract from a lot of factual writing. | May 08 23:49 |
| schestowitz | Pesky SLAPP letters can also be discouraged in a number of ways. One of several ways is to make copies all over the place, overwhelming them with "targets". | May 08 23:49 |
| schestowitz | Don't try to defend yourself/ves in social control media; you would waste your time as it's designed to make corporate-leaning mobs always win. Not just because of CoC but also the scale. | May 08 23:49 |
| schestowitz | If you post something that cannot be supported, it'll harm you and us too, as we are perceived as 'connected'. | May 08 23:49 |
