I watched the video. Should I be impressed, no emotions here? Is this a hard technical problem overcomed and demo-d?

That's an user problem, isn't it? Why a niche site owner consider caring about proprietary Ubiquiti systems?

Look at Xmos, founded by a transputers-dad. Small uCs, that can be connected together into a massive cluster, while being first-citizen of their xC language.

Ha, so there is an amazing Swiss startup (that took some wrong steps), KA-EX. They make an isotonic drink (btw Isostar is/was also Swiss), and my personal sample and annecdotal news from my friends, well it works (worked). Super easy recovery, hangover cure too. But lately they moved onto drinks with Caffeine added, stopped their original product, and it's not as effective. But well, there are some Swiss startups doing just fine.

Is it easy? To be a self-employed, aka a "founder" I need to have (provable) 3 paying customers in Switzerland. Not easy.

This comment highly resonates with me. I strongly believe coding by hand (defined as an act of writing computer code in some programming language) is moreless obsolete. I.e. my skill to implement dijkstra or quicksort in 10 minutes at 1am in 10 different languages while being hangover/drunk is absolutely worthless now. Software Engineering itself is more than just coding, the creative (and well engineering) part is still there.

Oh, it's some different AT protocol (some distributed mambojambo) than Hayes AT protocol.

Or you know what, just use built-in dictation. MacOS would be the last platform where I vibe-build my dictation-app for.

That would be oddly precise. More like "up to 50", or depending on speaker, "up to 100". /s

Don't forget that US prices usually do not include the VAT, while EU prices usually do include respective VAT.

New Tamron lenses have built-in usb-c port close to the lens mount. The utility just replicates what official Windows/Mac software does - not much, configuration of focus-by-wire, corrections, button functions.

503. Serving websites is a solved problem since 30 years. Even RPi powered via GPIO pins should be able to serve that website... /s

> Not a backdoor, but a documented CPU feature.

I would be even more explicit and call it “Not a backdoor, but a documented feature of ancient de facto unused Via C3 CPU.”
