I think you are back to where you started. If it was cheaper to use gas to run a heat pump then everybody would just run generators in their houses off of gas instead of using electrical lines.

I recently got heat pumps in the hopes that I could phase out my oil furnace. What I can say so far is: The temperature is wildly inconsistent. I don't know if this is a software issue, a hardware issue, or just the way heatpumps work.

I think this happens with any game - or in fact any life skill actually. In the beginning everything is novel. You play for fun, you enjoy the activity. And after you've done it for a while, you decide you want to be a little bit bette

Agreed here. Example: Garmin Golf. Can help track your scores and all sorts of data. Can you export any of that data? NO. Which means you can't do your own analysis and you definitely can't switch to any other golf tracking softwa

I'm curious if Apple actually uses they software they write. Surely they must right? And if so, then how do they not improve it. Or if they don't ... perhaps they don't use other software so they don't understand how thi

I've used some horrendous software in the past and it's nice that - even though I can't fix that software - I can write my own software and make it behave exactly how I want it to.

The author did say he experimented up and down with prices and what people would pay for. If people think they are getting more then 33 cents a day worth of productivity out of the app ... then it works for them. Does seem rather high to me
