Never mind foursquare, clubhouse had it beat even more as “product that absolutely captured HN power users (including VCs) and approximately no one else”. For a month or two at least, then even those groups got bored

Honestly the truth is it ended pretty inconclusively with security saying “well you should let it sleep so it can update” and me saying I wasn’t going to because of the sleep issues and we both kind of left it

Pre all the recent OpenSSL forks the only other options were: - use the platform sdks which have completely distinct APIs (and so probably aren't supported by everything between you and the TLS connection) - Use GnuTLS which is GPL and

But don’t forget to order the “right” (i.e. caldigit) dock. My dell dock is even more of a mess on the Mac than plugging the monitors in directly. Works great with a Dell (obviously) and framework laptop running Win10 and Linux respectively
