$3K gets you a crank for a niche application advertised as "the finest Corvair crankshaft available, showcasing meticulous attention to detail and surface finish". A (reground) 50-year old cast crank sounds like a poor substitute

Who are you to judge another's competence? By what standard? Your expectations are yours alone, unless you are tasked by the business to analyze and optimize.

Story of a failed pentester, perhaps? Social engineered their way into an unlikely scenario bound to raise suspicion. Tests and methods were pretty successful, otherwise. Still, I cannot fathom why companies insist on the rickety tinkertoy

It depends on what you're after, I guess. I'm betting the boundless possibilities presented by direct I/O control of a servo would do more to equip a kid for life than the range of choices presented in an app. Making your ide

Gates' copyrights on implementations of BASIC don't interest me. Blackjack, bubble sort and tower of hanoi in human-readable BASIC do. C isn't suitable for most K-8 students. Explain malloc while I handle PRINT, INPUT, PEEK
