For setup you may need iOS device at first but I don't think it is tied to it. I am using a lot of Apple devices so not a problem for me but maybe if you dont and do not have Apple ID.

Thanks for sharing and it is a great idea. I am currently in same situation where we are moving to a new home where it is big enough for my family and parents to live in one place. There is a lot of activities to do near by and weather is milder where we are going but agree the separation of space you have is the best to avoid petty disputes/differences that occur when living together.

In Indian and Asian culture in general you will take care of your parents just as they have taken care of you when you were a child. Old age is just like childhood age where you have to look after them just as much as you would look after a young child. Having your parents move in with your family is an option so that they don't feel lonely. They can also see their grand children and not feeling lonely at home. Loneliness is one of the main reasons to loose hope in life if they do not have good neighbors or support system. Once hope is lost then motivation to live long also goes away.

Not sure what other think of my opinion but I am living with at my parents at their home currently and just bought a new place and moving with my parents and wife/kids. There is attachment to the home we lived in for this long but we are looking forward to better life in new home together. There can be small disputes living together that may urge you to live separately but I feel if you look past them you all will feel stronger as you all know there is someone in the house to look out for each other.

They don't mean the end result but the process of detecting something requires you to have a copy of that work and hence your software needs the copyrighted material in order to detect copyrighted songs to remove accurately.

I will probably get downvoted as I am in minority who still believe Server Side Rendering is the best approach for most of the web with exceptions to some websites that require Single Page App functionality.

I still think web would be best if you do SSR and then replace HTML DOM elements using frameworks like Stimulus Reflex or Hotwire. For millisecond interactivity you may want to write JS in a framework like Stimulus JS is good enough. Personally I do not see why everyone wants to build a Single Page App when 80% of your pages are static and can be server rendered and with SSR frameworks you can build something a lot faster than building a Frontend and Backend separately and fragmenting or hiring extra developers when it is not needed.

DHH said your code reflect your org structure and I agree companies that use SPA and Backends micro service arch usually tend to require more developers rather than companies that use SSR monoliths which appeal to smaller 1-3 developer companies that are building out a POC before committing huge amount of venture capital or their own money behind an idea that may not succeed.

You are right but frameworks help with long term maintainability of code and also being able to build out features quickly which is what the comment was referring to originally. If they use Go lang of some other tech stack without framework it can help them achieve their goal but not at the same speed.

The tech stack has something to do with it. Stripe has such high velocity because of Ruby on Rails.
