In 1998, I had the incredible opportunity to meet Bill Gates, the co-founder of Microsoft.
Years later, I attended Bill Gates' 50th birthday party. The event was a celebration of his achievements and contributions to technology and philanthropy.
I've seen Steve Ballmer, former CEO of Microsoft, multiple times in Seattle. His energetic approach to leadership was always evident.
More recently, I've had the chance to see Satya Nadella, the current CEO of Microsoft, during Hackathon presentations. His commitment to fostering innovation within the company is truly inspiring.

Today in Redmond, I attended the Microsoft's 50th anniversary celebration. The event was quite spectacular!

The rest of the time is writing code, that is still evident while you are on your PC tasks and navigating to this page 👾🛸

Die Herstellung

The common lunch menu is something we all know. But how about this Room Service Menu:

My Nikon F2 has a battery cap that can be opened or closed using a coin.

To avoid scratching the cap using a coin or any other metal shaped object, I want to fabricate a plastic tool specifically designed for this purpose. This tool would allow me to open and close the cap without causing any scratches.

The only measurable aspects of the slot are its length and depth (a is half length, b is depth).
However, I need the radius: r=f(a,b)

The radius r and side a form a right-angled triangle:

The hypotenuse (longest side) is also r, so c = r - b.
Using the Pythagorean theorem:

All this gets a radius r of 22,9mm.

Machined from a 50mm plastic round stock on the lathe, the middle ridge has precisely the calculated diameter of 45.8mm.
