Same for me, but with an ATARI 800 XL. I had too many POKEs and PEEKs in my BASIC code. Indian customs took 30 days to release this machine in the 80s.

Don't forget the Handley Page Victor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handley_Page_Victor

I love the typeface. So 80s computer font.

I'd a Psion 5 Mx and loved it. It had one of the best small keyboards. It's folding mechanics was superbly engineered.

I wonder if ATM machines should have a keyboard cooling function to erase thermal signatures, immediately after each customer session.

Indeed optimistic. They’ll go quiet for the next nine years.

My Intel MacBook Pro says 11.0 Beta (20A4299v). So, I don't think it's 10.6 for Intel.

Just used username and password.

Logging into new devices does not ask for a second factor. I’ve verified this last week when I got a new iPad.

Last week, I logged into Keybase from a brand new iPad without any authentication challenge from a trusted device. As far as I can tell, there is no second factor.

I wish Keybase has a second factor for authentication.

Good interview of author in ‘Layovers’ podcast - http://www.layovers.to/podcast/060-nbo

I was a service provider during the initial days of launch and for two years afterwards. Loved the people. They were driven to ship good looking products. That was their downfall. At Nest they were (at least then) focused on how things looked. Nobody cared about how it worked, or how the product should be supported after shipping. Anyways, no regrets.

I met some of the best engineers and designers at Nest in the initial days. Afterwards, it became a A quality hiring B and B hiring C. Left hand did not know what the right was doing. The quality went down the drain. The management was terrifyingly dictatorial, top-down. Everyone was preparing for a Tony presentation/demo. They were afraid like kids do of the cruel headmaster.

I wish them nothing but the best.

Are we going to have a Volkswagen for TVs now?

Now you said that, I agree. I am unable to "un-see" it.

My partners and I created a startup during the last severe downturn. It was indeed the best time since resources ended up being cheaper for us and we got a longer runway. We ended up never needed to raise capital and had our exit in 2012.

I know you!

Nowadays, the police looks fearsome and threatening with their high tech automatic gear and offensive stance. They are not approachable. Why does policing require these military style weapons?

The screenshots in the documentation have IE browser with non-SSL URLs. Really shitty looking apps.

Love the title - The coolest cat.

siege is a very useful tool for benchmarking. I use it a lot.

This looks great! Can't wait!

The Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California has one of the Kitchen Computers.

I have a NeXT cube from the 1990s. It is one of the best built products in terms of build quality, I have ever seen.

It is running on Microsoft ASP.

Good riddance.

I agree about Changi and Seoul. Changi is one of the nicest place to transit from. The new airport in Dubai is a mess. It is a very large facility with very low quality, untrained manpower.

You are right.
