But can you do it with one hand tied behind your back? 
Awesome work, haven't done any I2C on the Pi or BBB, did a little on the Arduino UNO.
New version: WinHeist Version 2.2.2 Beta I told my psychiatrist that I was hearing voices in my head. He said you don't have a psychiatrist!

Awesome project!
I love embedded and electronics, have always been interested although still consider myself a hack!
I just finished a lightbox using IR LEDs and ATMega328P so I can start making my own PCBs. Now just waiting for transparencies to get here so I can start testing. (I need to test lightbox to determine how long I need to set timer for developing light sensitive boards)

Environmentalists unite against this horrible treatment of a pinhead sized pest! [Evil cackle] 
In case you were wondering: This is news from the US Dept. of Agriculture. I imported their entire nutrient database for some 8,000 American food types into an app I wrote that calculates the nutrients for almost any meal in the USA. OK, I am the world's entire population that uses this app! You find that strange? Well, I can tell you my average daily intake of Dodecanoic Acid and a 149 other essential and non-essential nutrients. Can you do the same? I thought not.
Am I making money with this effort? Hell no! I am retired and do it just for fun. I pity you poor blokes in the trenches who have to code for a living. My heart pumps chocolates for you. [Another evil cackle]

And you are also probably the only person on the plant who cares what their average daily intake of Dodecanoic Acid is.
And possibly the only one who knows what is it...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

It so happens I didn't know what it is - until I Googled it.
Don't misunderstand the purpose of the app: It is not so much to monitor my nutritional intake, as it is a vehicle for me to stay mentally active through coding in my retirement.

What is the name of this app? does it works on Windows phone?
Those are important questions!
|
|
|
|

I call it Nutrition Analyzer, and no, it won't work on a phone. It's really a desktop app and needs a screen at least 1366 pixels wide to work.

Hmm, it has a "SAM verticle launch system" according to the brochure. Wonder why you would need that on a yacht?

Because Sam's a pain in the @rse.

Ha!
The only downside is that he hasn't done anything I can vote up!

But he has been around for 13 years doing basically nothing.

Agreed.

Not to mention a threat to US Navy and civilian vessels alike, should this technology fall into the wrong hands. We need a common sense government who would stop wasteful and economically divisive endeavors such as these.

I doubt that the US Navy has that much to fear, as the model shown doesn't look like the fastest or stealthiest of submarines. Must be pretty drunk to miss that one on the sonar.
The US Navy have more reasons to fear this one: Sweden Has A Sub That Is So Deadly The US Navy Hired It To Play Bad Guy[^]
Civilian vessels might be a different story, both from a collision point of view and if used by pirates.
A terrorist's wet dream would be a model equipped with Tomahawk missiles.
And where there is money there is a way. Weapons have been sold to both sides of any conflict for ages.
Governments make money of that too, at least in the short term.

The USN and RN pretty much tracked every Russian sub while at sea without the Russians knowing they were up their baffles. These leisure subs won't exactly be hard to detect. If anything they'd probably attract a bit too much attention.

A friend of mine works for a company specialized in furniture for super yachts, the kind where a chair or table costs six figure amounts.
Those filthy, stinking rich guys don't even appreciate it.
They once spent a year looking for a rare tree of the right size with the perfect structure to create a really exclusive table that the customer requested. So when they finally found the tree and made it into a $100,000+ table they got a phone call... This guy's new girlfriend (a 30-40 year younger, dispensable, gold digger) didn't like it very much, so if they could come and paint the table white! 
And then there was this guy who wanted his entire engine room covered in gold. THE FRIGGIN ENGINE ROOM!!!
Yeah, it's a weird world we're living in...
