Mil-Dot Rangefinder 2.0 submitted to App Store

Thomas — Sun, 13 Jun 2010 07:45:20 +0000

I’ve finally finished beta testing Mil-Dot Rangefinder version 2.0. I’ve submitted it to the app store and awaiting approval.

Lots of changes under the hood to improve performance, but from a user experience perspective some of the major enhancements are:

-Multiple ballistic profiles (pro version)

-Two sample profiles provided. (XM193 and M118LR)

-Completely redesigned settings views with all settings editable within the app

-Additional Units of measure.

-Double-Tap target size to change unit of measure.

-New input controls almost completely eliminate typing.

Here’s a quick walk-thru video I made to show the new features in action. There was some problems encoding the video, so the audio is missing, but you can still figure out what’s going on.

Things have been a little more than crazy for me lately. I’m hoping to get back to posting on a semi-regular basis soon. I’ve had almost no time to post anything because I’ve been concentrating on a iPhone app that I’ve been developing. It’s currently in beta testing, and I hope to submit it to Apple in the next week or two. (Price TBD). It’s called Mil-Dot Rangefinder. It’s designed to take the math and/or guess work out of ranging targets using a mil-dot scope. The interface is designed so that you do not have to type anything to range a target, making it easy to use with one hand and doesn’t require any fine motor skills. I’m producing two versions of the application. One is the standard edition, which provides target ranging capabilities only, and the other is a "Pro" edition which also provides ballistics calculations. Check them out at www.mildotrangefinder.com and let me know what you think.

That is all.

Liberal definition of “compromise”

Thomas — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 08:11:17 +0000

Liberal: Please give me $10,000.

You: no.

Liberal: Oh come on, you can afford it. Give me $10,000.

You: No chance!

Liberal: It’s your duty to give me $10,000.

You: No it isn’t.

Liberal: I need it more than you. Besides, you’d just waste it. I can put it to better use.

You: Go pound sand.

Liberal: Ok, Ok, I’m willing to compromise. You only have to give $5,000.

You: Wait, what? I said no! Where the hell do you get the idea that you are entitled to my hard earned money?

Liberal: Why are you being unreasonable?
