Today there’s no disc, no recall - that cost to shipping broken software is gone. We the users pay the price.

Frontier labs are incentivized to keep it that way, and they're investing billions to make AI = API the default. But that's a business model, not a technical inevitability.
Hyperscalers are spending a fortune so we think AI = API, but renting intelligence is a business model, not a technical inevitability.

A fresh PWA to log / improve your coffee brewing process. We use it to see what we are all drinking, find new coffees, explore new cafes, and understand what we like / don’t like.
It’s primarily used by our group of friends, so if you see a rough edge somewhere please reach out!
I don’t follow the logic. It doesn’t destroy the property or take it out of supply, it just means someone might not purchase it specifically to rent it out. Which in turn means less demand buying houses overall, which means more opportunities for people to buy (if they want?)
Who stands to gain? Without TFWs the minimum wage (or the amount actually paid for workers) would have to rise - supply and demand.
‘Government intervention’ isn’t the same as a government who works to support the needs of citizens.
So I guess if you trust apple, you can sorta trust these devices as their access to the outside world would be through an apple device.
Also, it doesn’t target the entire population fairly - surely there is a better way?
I found this a thought provoking starting place: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/abc-news-daily/id13495...
Created using hours of their archival footage, it’s a story driven by a singular shared passion, amazingly found by two people born only 20km apart.
This also lowered the avg HR for the workout on the whoop, as you noted. Happy to share an example comparison graph if you’re interested, just reach out.
For what it’s worth, I ended up cancelling the Whoop this month after trying twice to engage with their data team.
Salesforce bought Slack in 2021.
This is a widespread issue across many essential areas of human life - like housing (Airbnb), or the environment (pollution).
I have now had two (work and personal) - my work m1 air was specced with 8GB, and had major memory pressure and issues with an external monitor. My personal 14” MBP has 16GB - same workload, same monitor, never skipped a beat.
Ended up sending the air back and swapping for one of the old dev ex MBP (intel based).
I don’t want to force people to join a/my/some club. I want to let my followers and friends see I plan to do a 80km ride Saturday morning and let them simply tag along. It could easily be integrated into the feed or as a separate section.
I’d argue social activity is one of the biggest opportunities for Strava to lock themselves in as the hub of all movement activity - but it requires supporting how people like to naturally organize in a local community.
