Yes. I have a bike helmet with integrated cameras. The company (Cyclevision) that made it is gone. So no Apple account. So no app for my helmet anymore.

They should have preserved existing behaviour for existing users and implemented this as a default only for new installs.

Yep, my sister makes fun of me that her mere presence makes me more productive. (when I shared an apartment with her in my early thirties) she'd sit in my room just chatting to me and I would tidy and clean without her doing anything, whereas I'd been meaning to do that for months.

I suggested the idea of a responsiblabuddy website today to my wife – if we're both in the same town I'd commit to coming to your house on Saturday and you'd commit to coming to mine on Sunday and I'd finally tidy my shed / weld those batteries / list those items on fb marketplace etc. Then I realised I'd need a responsabilabuddy to get me to start and finish the website!

There was a guy running a co-working space in Dublin (Ireland) who would open it up on the occasional Sunday for "Sideproject Sundays" which I found great for focus.

Edit: there are no search results for "responsiblabuddy", I know I didn't come up with that term

I bought a book on Amazon recently and when it got delivered, I was too lazy to get off the couch to get it and I just downloaded it. Now I have the physical book and a copy that's convenient to open/reference whenever and wherever I am.

Thanks, I thought I was getting forgetful!

I found the article lacking the context of the total electricity generation. Is this 1%, 10%?

I read that years ago. The punchline doesn't work without an American accent!

* Composer is one file. It's a .phar (as described by @az09mugen)

* I think in typical use, Composer is installing via Packagist.org, which is typically pointed at a GitHub repo, and it is the repo's zip file that is downloaded to your computer. You can look in composer.lock and see `"type": "zip"` throughout

* It definitely has some sort of hash verification in the PostFileDownloadEvent class. I've never used it to know if it would satisfy your need

Similarly, WP CLI is a .phar file which can then install additional packages. It's really just using Composer under the hood.

IIRC, Rap Genius sought and got investment for this idea but then later retracted back to just music lyrics.
