I can't stop laughing at the first entry and this simple joke:
he gained international notoriety for his claims that [...] mass and time are equivalent. (With regard to the second claim, it was suggested on the "sci.astro.amateur" newsgroup that his demise be observed with a gram of silence.)
Mine still makes me figure out what's in the machine and fold it after, am I due for an upgrade?
Those reviews of No 5 reminded me of a fantastic video about the (simplified) history of Coco Chanel [1] that I loved but haven't watched in years.
The simplicity of design and the pace make it timeless, despite the fact that it was produced 11 years ago.
I used Cline to build a tiny testing helper app and this is exactly what it did!
It made changes in TS/Next.js given just the boiletplate from create-next-app, ran `yarn dev` then opened its mini LLM browser and navigated to localhost to verify everything looked correct.
It found 1 mistake and fixed the issue then ran `yarn dev` again, opened a new browser, navigated to localhost (pointing at the original server it brought up, not the new one at another port) and confirmed the change was correct.
I was very impressed but still laughed at how it somehow backed its way into a flow the worked, but only because Next has hot-reloading.
The problem isn't the number of boxes plugged in, its that the TV has its own OS and built-in apps that people want to use that doesn't work with anything outside the TV.
I don't think too many people have, for example, a Samsung TV and a Firestick and use the 2 interchangeably for different apps.
I had this problem until the Samsung interface got too unbearably slow (6 year old tv), so I just bought a Google TV and that goes through my receiver's HDMI in port. Before this update, I was using optical out from the TV into my receiver, but the quality was noticeably degraded. I'm lucky I also don't use the radio function or a record player since that would just add to the chaos.
I've been going through the sales gauntlet lately for a new company I'm working on, and it's ROUGH!
I hacked together a prototype using free tiers and easy-to-access sandbox environments and guess what, we're gonna transition to the paid tier after getting some feedback on the MVP. At this point, it doesn't matter if a competitor's sales person can give us a better deal "because it's the end of the quarter" merely due to the fact that the code has already been written.
Don't worry, it looks to be on the rise, there will be more features baked in before you know it!
Agree completely here! When we were getting everything up and running, we were making decisions about which SaaS platforms were worth our money. Having the company pay for something personally never once crossed my mind.
