The Triumph of Christianity: How the Jesus Movement Became the World's Largest Religion - Rodney Stark
Nice project!
Oh man, what did you did to me. Ive got obsessed with it. Thank you, kind of (spent two days knee deep into it).
Thank you I really appreciate!
Please see my comment below about translations though!
Yeah, thank you for your interest! I've got some messages about that as well.
But first i'd like to see enouh traffic on the course in the most popular language available and then I'll consider putting more effort into it.
Haha, yeah guys you are right, sadly not much I can do about it, esp. after the fact:) There are a ton of free previews so one can figure out if its for them or not.
I even mention at the end of the intro that if you can put up with my accent, you'll be good to go:)
Yeah, my problem with all that is its 8hours long, showing just parts of it is not enough really. I'd like to hear from ones who really do it in its entirety. What they struggled with, aht aas good, what wss awful. Etc.
Thank you so much! Indeed i will have a look into that as well!
Yes, exactly, thank you.
But i have those already;)
As an alternative you could set up 2FA on their google accounts, and then they can have a 2FA app on their phone (not just google-authenticator, any app you trust can be good).
Then they would have a fixed place where they can find the 2FA code and not to mess around with the notifications. It's more complicated but more robust as well.
Hi! I think your best bet would be the developer.android.com documentation.
Although there are code references, most of them explain the concepts in the beginning or inbetween. Just ignore the code parts.
Here is an example for the notifications you mentioned: https://developer.android.com/develop/ui/views/notifications
But you can find info on the other topics in here as well.
Thank you so much for your feedback, someone before you already mentioned the cookie banner thing, and I was just working on it. Although can't remove but made it way smaller.
Thank you!
Yeah, you are partly right about that (they are not there for confusion's sake).
I just didn't had the stomach to leave those things unmentioned as I'm personally not fond of the monopoly either. So thought to still at least put somewhere at the end. Make some poweruser grandmas:)
Whatsapp, indeed is a good idea, will add that, thanks!
Thank you!
I understand that, I'm like that as well. And not many in my circles are similarly wired. I like to tinker with electronics and different systems and also as a SWE coding random stuff, but not everyone is wired like that.
Long time ago when we were moving, i found an old school book of mine from 7th grade elementary: there was a kid with a wrench repairing a bicycle on the front cover. I remember thinking: thats not really a thing anymore.
Thank you so much for the feedback, that pesky banner indeed. I have fixed both issues. I mean the banner is still annoying, but way smaller.
Thank you so much, I would really appreciate any feedback about that!
Yes, yes, yes! I even talk about how hard it is to distinguish between these two things. Even as a user who just want to learn how to use it, kind of hopeless to find something amongst the dev articles/tutorials.
Thank you for your kind words!
I wanted to:) And you know what the funny thing is, if i give the course for free, no-one watches it.
I did reach out to several people in my friendship, gave them free the course just to get feedback. None of them watched it, so thats very, very surprising for me. Maybe i should go up to random strangers and PAY THEM in order to give them something that would benefit them - and maybe get some feedback:))
But on the other hand, I've got very lovely reviews on udemy, so apparently those who find it love it and thats very encouraging.
Thank you, it's an honor you think that!
I don't know of any higher authority on what to call it actually. Technically that "app" (it is an android app just like any other) is called a launcher, i went with desktop, but I also like home screen, and I think I probably use these terms interchangeably in the course.
(You actually can install a different launcher if you are not happy with yours.)
Teaching tech to elderly people is hard—many struggle with gestures, apps, or even turning their phones on. I built a course from scratch, covering every step from unboxing to apps. Along the way, I learned about video production, Android’s quirks, and marketing struggles.
Hi! Yes, as far as I see it is a control board, that needs someone to operate it. And thats the reason, my tool automates the camera movement.
By the way, we do have a custom keyboard as well, which is basically a separation of concerns/simplified interface for OBS, which is intimidating for most of our crew. But they can handle 10 buttons with nice labels.
For example they have one button that toggles the camera view and the projector view.
Also I scripted OBS to manage camera positions with the scene "Pulpit", "Stage", "Pulpit wide", "Sitting": so they can manually override the automated thing in 1% of the time, but 99% of the time the automation is enough.
Also I have scripted OBS to manage the stream lifecycle based on which scene is active. So: - they can bring up the "Starting soon" scene that would start streaming but not the recording - they can bring up the "Break" scene that would pause(!) the recording but not the stream - they can bring up the "Finished" scene that would stop all with a nice fade out and "thank you for joining" text, etc.
So a control pad can work together with this tool.
For my tool i don't really think that's possible as of now, through OSC you don't get the audio signal (afaik), maximum the level at some precision.
Also general audio stuff is from 20-20khz, so you don't really have headroom to super(or sub?) impose another signal into it frequency wise, as it would be audible. (Unless you sacrifice some parts with a high/low cut on the original signal.)
Although you could have 48khz sampling rate on most audio gear, so you could do time-multiplexing if you are really desperate, but then all signals need processing before becoming useful/noiseless.
About the cable sheath, of course you can do anything with custom circuits, but general audio stuff will not help you in that as far as i know.
If you ask it because of controlling the cam with a mute status felt out-of-place for you, then: no it's not wasting any channels. As someone above already explained very precisely above, the thing is you don't want to have live and unused microphones on your setup, due to feedback, extra noise, etc.
So if the speaker is speaking, the band is muted, if the band is playing the speaker is muted. And this can be used (in our case, not always for everyone), to track where the event is happening, and the camera can turn at the right position based on this. Therefore we, in our usecase could eliminate an extra step for someone to manage the camera by hand.
By the way, many consoles have extra buttons/knobs that are assignable to random stuff, so through OSC i could query their states as well and i could set up camera movement with those as well if i wanted to.
Good job, thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much.
If I understand your prior-art question, I think there is a few: - the OSC protocol for audio gear and some other studio equipment. - In the lighting world I heard DMX is king - OBS has a very extensive Websocket client
For PTZ cameras I'm not sure, our old PTZ camera needs HTTP GET-s to weird urls (RPC).
Thanks again for starring!
If I'd have, I might have not developed this:)) It's very hard to define what this thing is, and it's even harder to search for it. (In both my and this case). Also that name is very weird for me as a non-french:)
I have started to mess around with Chataigne, it seems promising, but this far I'm getting stuck at trivial steps (matching a regexp, converting a "contains" to bool, etc). We'll see how I progress with support:)
But that guy is clearly brilliant just like Chataigne.
Thanks for mentioning!
Excellent and precise explanation, thank you:)
