Spatial computing has gone too far

Happy new year! Here’s some pizza for the party

The closest I know of is not completely free or open source, but it’s by Ubiquiti Labs and it’s really good for a mobile video editor. Mentioning it because it might still meet some people’s criteria:

Definitely take this all with a grain of salt—I am by no means a legal expert, this is just my advice.

Privacy Policy

Required by law in Germany if you are collecting any sort of data about your users (even if it is being collected by a third party through your app, or if it is entirely anonymous data).

Data Processing Agreement

Required by law in Germany for the same reasons as the Privacy Policy. This agreement makes it clear how your users’ data is used.

Cookie Policy

Required by law in Germany if your application uses cookies of any kind (mostly applies to web app and web technologies)

Terms of Service

Highly recommended. This may protect you immensely if and when you end up in a legal situation down the road.

Other

Otherwise, you should look into these as well if applicable:

• EULA (if distributing your app to be run on someone else’s device)
• DCMA Policy (if you host and share any user-generated content)
• Return Policy (if you are selling anything)

These documents matter most if (1) there is money involved or (2) when you are receiving, processing, storing, or sharing user-submitted content or any data about your users. This is because you are less likely to end up in a legal mess if you’re not taking people’s money or data.

Starting out, you can find templates for these online. A template will be better than nothing at all. Then, if you are able down the road, you can hire a legal professional to write and review your documents for you. A legal professional might recommend more specific documents or different versions of the same document as well.

Not sure about Germany, but in the United States it’s fairly inexpensive to start an LLC. You can then put legal documents under that new entity instead of your own personal name. This can protect you and your own belongings from any unfortunate financial or legal situations.

Again, if you’re not receiving money or any user data, you don’t have to worry quite as much. However, it never hurts to play it safe. Mistakes happen and anyone can get sued.

Codium does surprisingly well at generating JSDoc, and it processes your code within the context of your entire codebase. Still not quite there yet, but you might be surprised

I know there are documentation generators (like JSDoc in JavaScript) where you can literally write documentation in your code and have a documentation site auto-generated at each deployment. There’s definitely mixed views on this though

Really cool! Reminds me a bit of the Numi calculator too

Yeah, that’s a literature with 3 lines so it’s easy to distinguish. The cost is obviously a huge downside compared to other fonts here though

I love MonaLisa a lot. I’ve been using it for pretty much all monospace throughout my computer. It feels very fine-tuned and well thought out, and it’s very readable too.

Yep it fully supports those ligatures. I can’t stand when it doesn’t have those lol

Microwaveable Legos

I used to use Fira Code, but my new personal favorite is MonoLisa

I learned recently how the James Webb Space Telescope is not orbiting around Earth but literally orbiting around an empty point in space. I don’t think I even quite understand it, but it’s really cool
