Love what you did, the dedication for 2 years to launch this is awesome. Apple keyboards are near-horrific IMO so you are filling an important niche for sure. I know it is a silly complaint in the mech KB space but the price compared to something like a Keychron K3 makes this a no-go for my preferences. The K3 is very close to what I'd consider suitable as a daily driver at work. Thank you for including audio of the typing!!!! Again this is my preference, the Alter II is not "thocky" enough for what I like to hear. Clacky and Clicky keyboards are just far too distracting or painful to listen to for extended periods. Also interesting to see a speaker built-in. I'd have cut it for cost and space.

It looks nice on mobile but I initially viewed it on desktop and found it unpleasant to use.

Not to guess why it was not included, but speaking as someone from the infosec realm, it has a reputation for spam and phishing.

I shouldn't have used such broad strokes, you accurately assessed that my opinion is based on my experience with IT/cyber folks in the government.

I disagree based on my decade+ experience working with Federal employees. I would guess that 50% of GS-13 to GS-15 (heck even SES) are mostly incompetent, 40% get the basic minimum of their job complete, and the final 10% shoulder most of the work accomplished. I have come across many GS staff given busy work roles so they are "out of the way" of leadership's objectives. :edit: For folks downvoting me, this is just my personal opinion based on my experience working within IT and cybersecurity. My observations can easily be (and may actually be) untrue elsewhere (as noted by replies to my comment). Early in my career, I was a GS-13 myself.

You have to expand on your last point please!

Just want to note that suggestion #2 is easily detected by any org with even a whiff of security tooling in place. Quick way to get terminated.

I have seen it in use on Intel and M1 Macs in a developer-heavy userbase. It's fine.

From a corporate perspective, either SentinelOne or CrowdStrike Falcon.

Having used Chronicle, it felt like an underwhelming paper thin demo product compared to what the industry offers. May as well scrap it and lean on Mandiant's experience for a replacement.

FireEye was nowhere on the same level as Mandiant and the two companies split and FE was purchased by STG for $1.2 billion.

I started playing yesterday and have not yet completed the tutorial stuff yet, I quit in the middle of it in fact.

The blog post just cuts off at the end? "Ultimately, this migration has resulted in increased adoption of centralized logging, including among core application teams and operations and"

My team, and myself, turn it on for conversations where everyone is participating. So a small team huddle (3-5 people) has cameras on. Bunch of slides and a bigger audience? Cameras off. In reality, it is dictated by your team or organization culture.
