@larrysalibra Well, and how many countries block specific apps?

[Jon Buford @jonbuford]

@PenguinSix @mrs_wee Oooh, the 65 brace is indicating the total for all bars...

@doctorow I'm trying out a local production run of Social Distancing Minders with 3D printers and self-assembled electronics, reminds me of Makers and Walkaway tech. https://t.co/2Gi0fm4jf2 Ultimately, have a plan for scalable local manufacturing via @goodrobotco

[Product Hunt Hi @ProductHuntHi]

@jonbuford FYI, you've been added as a maker of Minder on @ProductHunt https://t.co/fnlH5GCz1h h/t @johnbiggs 🙌

@mauerbac This is a good discussion, but some of the alternatives are not really that accurate of an alternative in their intent. Inherited would be better than Legacy or Exempt. Tribal vs. Institutional loses the inherent inclusiveness of belonging to a group, but is more accurate. Etc.

[Jon Buford @jonbuford]

@aphumphreys @getify At the time, both crowd funding and 3D printing were effectively bubbles and promoted speculative behavior on both sides. For me, I got caught up in my own hype and went down R&D holes that I should not have, and that had knock on effects. I'm sorry if you were caught in that.

What is a Speech Tracker? There are around 800 million people that have a speech disorder, with around 200 million people stuttering. A speech tracker is a wearable device that makes a summary of how you speak in your daily life. I…https://t.co/1DajxgTGVa https://t.co/WhQtqPfwq5

@ingridlunden This is new technology that could change the lives of hundreds of millions of people globally.

BeneTalk, track how you are speaking. For people who stutter and anyone that wants to know if they are speaking fast, breathing, or changing the way you speak. https://t.co/ibnjl3jZRj https://t.co/9Mz9lxgJS1

@balonester What is Tame Impala? Not sure that I want to know.

[Jon Buford @jonbuford]

I'm trying Jaywalk, a new app that rewards you for walking. It's in beta. Let's try it together! https://t.co/r5QNH0jL9O

[Jon Buford @jonbuford]

@RealSexyCyborg yeah, now that you mention it, that makes sense. That kind of goes along with confusing sales for marketing.

[Jon Buford @jonbuford]

@hankgreen @balonester This is a very cool chart, but does this take into account other factors that could lead to the same result? Just trying to understand.

[Jon Buford @jonbuford]

Interesting, that actually makes a lot of sense. What if you talk about branding and brand equity from that angle? https://t.co/Zjlx5GfTqg

[Naomi Wu 机械妖姬 @RealSexyCyborg]

You joke but "marketing" is really tough to translate properly into Chinese. They usually think you mean sales. https://t.co/vhb4vFY0Y3

[Jon Buford @jonbuford]

@RealSexyCyborg Sounds like a real deal... Which part of that did they think was a sensible proposition? I get if they just want to loan the units.

[Jon Buford @jonbuford]

@hypercasey @fernandogros @thewanderlister @godnojoe @kesatuuli @walkeen @PenguinSix And to you all as well. (I'm not really sure how the dancing storm troopers relate to the force, but, eh.)

[Jon Buford @jonbuford]

I just published “Is Walkaway the Atlas Shrugged of Now?” https://t.co/pXwUDmCs9x

[Jon Buford @jonbuford]

@doctorow It didn't read either way, so I was curious how you had it in your head. It has been great to see your stories evolve. Thanks for replying!

[Jon Buford @jonbuford]

Walkaway is a great vision of a possible future. Not easy, but real. @doctorow is it a new world or could it be set after Makers finished?

[Jon Buford @jonbuford]

@zedomax nope, I only have modular microcontrollers for building robots and things like that.
