Nah, at least according to their post, they translated. But if they put as much effort in translating the text as they seemingly did in everything else, it might have sounded quite awkward... 😅

Honestly, if they had taken just one evening to chill and put themselves in the shoes of the tired, overly spammed, unmotivated farmers; they would have instantly recognised that sending them a non solicited email with a nondescript, probably overly verbose request, would be the absolute worst way to go about reaching them. Save maybe for carving their message on a brick and throwing it at their main window.

It looks to me as a typical case of "not my money, so let's take things easy". I would gladly make a study on how many failed charities would have been successful, would the funding depend on some basic metric. I would even do that as a charity. For, say, 30k. 🙃

TL;DR:

Overall, despite the fact that the project "failed", we see the overall experience as a positive one. Most new charities fail - that is part of the game. The important thing is to figure out as quickly as possible whether your idea is a good one, and we believe that we succeeded in doing so.

I'm not interested in doing android dev (actually I am, but not the way any of the toolchains I found so far want me to, and so the learning curve is just too steep for me), but "someone" should take the lead. Maybe do a soft fork, open PRs, and nudge the maintainer. Who knows, possibly they will be giving commit rights. 🙂

This doesn't pass the smell test.

Can confirm. LOS 18.1, android 11.

I use linphone. Not necessarily because it is good, but it works and I have found nothing ~~better~~else.

Just remember that if anyone asks, act irritated that you were called in on your day off because the guy who was supposed to do it fell sick, then catch yourself and say "anyway, no time to chat, I got a quota to meet" before grumbling about how you should have listened to your mother.

This is absolute gold.

Funny you'd mention that...

"It's so edgy you could cut him out of the movie and it wouldn't make any difference"

Tout à fait en effet et si c'est fait c'est parfait car dans les faits il fallait tout compte fait.

I get what you are trying to ask, and why, but unfortunately, such a comparison is not so trivial:

Setting aside load (weight) and age differences, various transportation means use gear shifting in order to adapt the power output to the characteristics of the current load (as in "system load" this time). This adds a dimension of dynamism to the comparison, and most vehicles do not automatically and systematically impose an ideal efficiency constraint on the power output.

To illustrate, using a single speed bike requires vastly different power than using a 7 speed bike. And different driving styles will radically change the efficiency of combustion engines.

So, in addition to mapping the efficiency to various speeds, it should be mapped to various use cases (hence why combustion engines have different fuel economy in "urban" and "extra urban" situations).

In the end, the graphic would not be 2D like this one, or 3D like it would be with "time per km" (or mile) vs energy requirement, and per type of vehicle, but there would be several 3D graphics, one per vehicle type, with time per km vs environment vs energy consumption.

TBH I was gonna try and do that, but even with ADHD, I can see this is going to be mad time consuming. So yeah, no, I think I'll pass. Good idea tho. "Someone" should do it. 😇
