Congrats, generating flash have been to me one of the few evident applications of generative AI. I’ll happily test your app. Also I like your pricing : 35/yr for an app you may use everyday is spot on.

> Robotics… seem like a miss to me. Very few tasks at home are as simple as vacuuming Even vacuuming was pretty hard. Most vacuum robots were a disappointment until maybe 2 or 3 years.

I have the feeling that basically all current smart home products are either a disappointment in their limitations or useful but really time consuming. The only smart appliances I got are Philips hue lights which are nice but well, after th

We are talking about booting from USB. On a Mac M2. That’s literally the most power user feature of a MacBook. The 3 users of this feature on this planet are already happy that it’s even possible at all. The only thing Apple could do is to

I tried it a few months and it was nice. But I think it lacks a way to configure mounting points for the apps storage. By default, each app have its own storage folder and not really a useful default in the use case of a home lab : you prob

OTOH, the current implementation works and is sufficient so Apple could easily decide that it’s not worth modifying firmware that already works to solve an inexistant issue.

Well, the article also says that the plane isn't even owned by the company but by the CEOs family holding. So even if it's "a drop in the bucket", it's also not really a company expense, just an outrageous compensat

nestjs is nice if you’re coming from Angular. It’s basically Angular for the backend. But like Angular, there is a very wide range of use cases where it is totally overkill and like Angular, companies are throwing it at each and every proje

The idea of PR review is that the submission is imperfect and that there will be fixes. Like, "typo fix" fixes.

Redis is everywhere and a lot of corporations aren’t going to change their short term roadmap to migrate to a fork. That could be a huge money shot for Redis. But it’s probably only a one-shot, not a viable business model. Sure the company

In general, when you have this kind of bugs, it have to do with transaction amount limits which looks like they are a mixed bag of rules from the terminal and the card itself. In the early days of mobile payments, I remember that some termi

I’d like to have more diversity of engines but at least WebKit is good so I can live with it. However Firefox iOS have a crappy UI compared to Safari and it doesn’t looks like Mozilla is bothering a lot about it.

Not exactly, Vivaldi was founded by former Opera employees but is built on a chromium base. Opera had its own browser engine (Presto) and had a native UI (or if it wasn’t, it felt like it because it was really snappy). Vivaldi is more like

Divorce makes the fastest sales but the thing is people always sell for a reason anyway and every seller have somehow a deadline depending on what’s next.

Most of the time, sellers are in the process of buying another place (or other life reasons like divorce or whatever) so they are incentivized to sell at a good price but also pretty quick.

No need to hack anything, you just have to make a Bluetooth controller with the same characteristics than Nintendo’s controllers. They are pretty standard.

The real question is : is it Apple’s role to protect people against Facebook or Google ? I mean, if you want to be protected against Facebook, just delete the app. It’s the role of regulators to stop data hoarding. Also this narrative is co

A locked-down MacOS would be awful but at least you’d still have Linux (thanks Asahi). With an iPhone you are stuck with whatever new decision from Apple with no opt-out. That’s abnormal. See, I’d be ok to say that Apple can do whatever the

Yep, e-scooters are maybe 7 years old (I start counting from the release of the Xiaomi M365) and so it’s real a shame that e-scooters with turn signals are finally here since only one year or two. Back when I used to do my commute with e-sc

While you are right, there is a common misconception that psychosomatic means that the patient is making up its symptoms and that it’s in his mind. That’s not what a doctor means by psychosomatic, but rather than the symptoms are totally re

That’s not true. 2/3 of Parisians don’t even own a car and Paris is a very average city when it comes safety. Density is also pretty low for one of the biggest European cities. And it’s just a known example, there are a lot of cities w
