This math doesn't account for the time it takes to get the water to a boil. Probably closer to 40% savings. Still, quite good!

Doesn't seem to work for me. I downloaded and ran on my Mac and proceeded to click the volume buttons on my iPhone but the count remains 0.

It will, most definitely, be end to end encrypted along with the rest of user data in the iCloud ecosystem.

Worth noting:

- We lost two tweeters (7 down to 5)

- We lost two mics (6 down to 4)

Really curious how the sound compares to the original.

How could you possibly say this is doing it wrong? The only way you could batch requests in the way you describe is if you have 1 (or very small number) compute nodes. You would need all those requests to hit same node so you could try and batch. With serverless compute infrastructure (which is what this blog is demonstrating by using lambda) you can have 1 isolated process per request and therefore need a database that can actually handle this kind of load.
