Re: Refreshing iCloud Drive

2020-02-21 Thread David G. Carlson via iPhone
Likely you are correct. I need to go back and see if I set up something 
incorrectly. It’s strange that a couple files are updating to fairly recent 
vintage, but most of them are stuck back in the dark ages.

Hmmm.  That is odd.  Like I said, 5 minutes should be the longest you have to 
wait from my experience.  If you go to iCloud.com on the web, are the files 
there as far as you can tell?  Is your Mac set to optimize or to keep 
everything local?

Dave,

Did you just start syncing things in your Documents and Desktop folders, or has 
this supposedly been syncing for quite a while?  If it's brand new, then it may 
take a while for everything to move up to iCloud then be visible to the iPhone. 
 If it's not a brand new thing, I have seen it take a while for the iPhone to 
see updates or changes to files.  Not a real long time, maybe 5 minutes or so.  
The only way I know to refresh things, would be to either turn off iCloud Drive 
on the iPhone, then back out of Settings, wait a minute or two then re-enable 
it.  I don't recommend that approach.  Alternatively, you could close the Files 
app from the app switcher, then upon re-opening it, it would do a poll of the 
existing iCloud Drive data.  Again, this should only be necessary if you've 
been syncing iCloud Drive for a long time and this is just happening lately.  
Finally, of course, there's always the good old restart of the iPhone that 
likes to fix all sorts of unknown issues.

HTH.

Hi everyone,

Re: Strange Characters - How do I Fix This?

2019-12-26 Thread David G. Carlson via iPhone
Jonathan,
I suspect that the first one is a fraction 1/2 and I think the omega symbol is 
a fraction 1/4. I would have to go back and look at the original file. But 
again, I don’t know how changing the N coding is supposed to change the actual 
files so that it shows up correctly the next time I open it.

Could not see, but it did not sound like a success?

Not sure if this went through, but I wanted to share a clip.

We have been testing the ruggedness of the macaron, and made a bet with Jake my 
co-founder on a previous prototype made out of PLC, and see if the casing was 
going to withstand a 500 kg bike rolling on it, as we were at the phase of 
testing casing integrity by repeatdetly throwing it across a room, swiping it 
off a bench, standing on it, and mistreating it in all sorts of scenarios.

Jake said he was fairly confident the Macaron was going to withstand a 250cc 
bike, and I just rode along, knowing very well internally that it was going to 
be a humiliating moment to capture on video.

Here is the result, guess what happened? Needless to say, we returned to our 
materials evaluation board, and changed things internally.

Not really that expensiv. The nearest competition is around US$ 150 and is not 
as full featured.
 And this sounds more rugged.   Most woodworkers have no problem getting a 
quality product for a price.

 Hi everyone,
 
 
 This is Yuma, and I have and update.
 
 Some of you might remember that I was working on a digital tape measure. I 
 had also used as my proposal for the 2017 Hollman prize. 
 
 Since then, I have been working hard on new prototypes with my partner, 
 wand the 2018 James Dyson award for its design and innovative features. 
 
 I am pleased to announce two things. First, though I didn’t get the 2017 
 Holman prize, I actually won this years prize. I will be going to San 
 Francisco for the induction, and will go on a world tour to meet various 
 scientists and engineers to make astronomy and all of its affiliate fields 
 accessible to all of us. If anyone of you is in the San Francisco bay 
 area, let’s get in touch. I would love to meet some of you in person.
 
 Second bit of news, we have a limited early release pre-order of the 
 Macaron which you can check out below. We are offering this limited 
 release, so that we can change the software to your liking and follow your 
 advice on how you would want a digital tape measure to work, Beyond the 
 features we have already created so far. This is because we have an 
 automatic firmware update feature, which will allow us to update the 
 associated IOS app, and we really excited to hear your recommendations and 
 put new features to the device. 
 
 Have a look with the link below, and if you have any questions just email 
 me.
 
 https://www.oseyeris.com/product/the-macaron
 
 As an earlier doctor, you will get the high-quality finish unit, and the 
 ability to upgrade to a new device at 50% of its retail price when it 
 comes out.
 
 
 The macaron has gone through multiple iterations, and is going through 
 trials in the medical field, the clothing industry, as Wellers wood 
 workshops across Australia. 
 
 
 We are also getting a new software developer who will help us with the 
 android app, as well as create new exciting features alongside my own 
 participation in the project. 
 
 Again, I’m really excited to announce these two bits of news, and hope to 
 hear from you. Have a great week all :)
 
 Yuma
