This gold deserves repost. Moreover, the real reason for this software having been created is that the creator is looking for job

A lot of free time. I'm open to full-time work in NYC or remote. I'm a designer/design-engineer. https://samhenri.gold

People have been paying far too much for protractors for far too long.

I hope the author can leverage his innovation in goniometry to put 'big protractor' out of business.

I remember in my third year med school orthopedic surgery rotation when a resident or attending pulled what I thought was a nifty folding protractor out of his pocket to measure flexion angle of a knee. Only then did I first encounter the word "goniometer."

I wonder how many lines of code would be in Swift.

A month has passed, m1 MacBook pro is still not supported. Sad!

Is this like the 3rd time this got close to/on top of front page of hacker news?

Hnrobert42• 10 months ago

Yes. And I can't understand why it is interesting. I mean why it is front page interesting.

My theory is that Mac users are excited about the idea that they have some control over their hardware.
