I somehow missed the pre-order offer here but I've been using Cursive for the odd project here and there and it fits perfectly. Love the product and look forward to buying it soon. Thoroughly worth it.

Oh you've just given me a huge dose of nostalgia - I used to do that over telnet back in... 92 or 93 I forget which. I had completely forgotten that sz/rz existed.

Perhaps if they have a model where after you've had a solid 12 months of subscriptions behind you, you can stop and use the last good versions you had, that would fix the issues people are complaining about. That would lose you the &#x

I'm with you in terms of productivity/results etc. I remember when I started with a new team that were all Eclipse. I gave it my all. I really did. No doubt much of it came down to familiarity but there was something about it

I think their all-you-can-eat subscription deal is pretty good value. I use Intellij Ultimate but I have messed around with Appcode and Rubymine in the past and wanted to give CLion a go. I remember a while ago thinking 'surely they

Is it hard to justify because the department was not going to get regular updates (so you'd half the cost by say, only updating every two years)? If they were going to get yearly updates I can't see the downside other than psycho

Wow that's wildly aggressive. I know people say 'push for the sale' but that seems counterproductive. It seems like they would have got further if they listened more.

You would have to terminate in magsafe connectors. You'd either have to butcher the wiring on all the power bricks or come up with some frankenstein thing with airline adapters, which I believe are now discontinued for some reason.

Presumably it's an issue of national sovereignty - it is their country, and they are broadly able to do any activities on their land as they see fit, just as the EU and US have seen fit to develop nuclear weapons. Presumably the altern

I bought one of these a few years ago and was touched by the personal note written in it. I hadn't realised until now that it was Clifford Stoll who actually sent these! Fascinating video.

To jsiminoff: do you guys still have the lockitron integration that you had planned for Doorbot? I can see that there's quite a few alternatives now like those by Schlage - any plans to offer the unified UI that you had planned or are

Ring is on my list for later this year; I look forward to trying it. I was going to go for Doorbot but the bad reviews had put me off. I don't see the same reviews for Ring. Best of luck :)

The same company that made Ring came out with this first. It was crowdfunded and the people that stuck out the very long wait were very underwhelmed I hear. The doorbot facebook page was a lot of very angry people. I guess they abandoned

Do you use Cursive? Last time I tried it I found some weird bugs in the text editing which caused problems for me. I very much wanted it to work though, I need to try it again.
