Yes. What does undeniably trans mean? Can you explain what makes you so confident? How is this provable?

> you could delay adopting “the cloud” for a couple of years and survive. With AI you might get a few months. I really dislike these claims that act like they know the future of engineering, that they’ve been let in on some enlightenment

Don’t get me wrong, :) that’s pretty cool! I’ve also made highly personalized mini apps for my own personal life. Currently working on an iOS one to log mood and correlate it with HealthKit data since the native health app does a bad job of
