Some OEM systems are sensitive too. My mother has a Hyundai that triggers the alarm whenever a heavy truck drives by.

I always travel with my GL.iNet GL-MT3000 (Beryl AX) and this is what I use it for:

- My wife and I travel with multiple devices (laptops, phones, Chromecast...) and when we get to a hotel/Airbnb, I simply connect my Beryl AX to their network (it deals with captive portals btw) and all of our devices automatically connect.

- I changed the `/etc/hosts` directly in the router, meaning I can test my local servers under custom domains easily on my other devices like phones/tablets without apps like SquidMan.

- I route specific domains through specific VPNs. Government websites, streaming websites, AWS services, etc.

- I can plug in a 4G USB modem into it and it can automatically fallback to it if the main connection drops.

- It has built-in Tailscale support.

Yeah I understand the frustration, I had issues setting up ESLint/Prettier years ago and spent a few hours getting the Biome configuration right. Also a monorepo with ~4000 TS/TSX files. If you ever feel like trying it again, make sure that you have "files.maxSize" and "files.ignoreUnknown" set. And be very careful with the "files.includes" list.

Idk, I'm having a good experience with Biome 2 in a large codebase. 4s to do a full-check including floating promises, undeclared and cyclic dependencies, and sorting imports. Our ESLint setup used to take almost a minute. The Biome team has been fixing bugs on a daily basis. Version 2.2.0 (released 3 days) ago addressed a common high-CPU-usage bug, try it out.

Edit: it's not 4s anymore, I just measured with the latest version and it takes ~900ms. Insane.

I'm dealing with mime types and max file sizes for an uploader, and improving error messages. Instead of relying on the file name to detect the mime type, I'm using the file binary header instead to reject dodgy files (for ex a `sample.jpg` file that is actually a ZIP or EXE under the hood).

30yo Brazilian here. I nor anyone I know have heard of issues with electric shower headers. Electricity in Brazil is highly available and relatively cheap. I actually think they're amazing and I would pick it over any gas shower out there, they heat up pretty much instantly and some models even offer high precision temperature control of 1 degree Celsius.

A few months ago I ordered an Uber Black in Bangkok and the driver showed up in a C300 AMG. I know it's not a high-end model (~50k USD), but I was shocked at how cheap the entire car felt. The leather is worse than the one used in base VW models, the armrests are pathetically small, visibility is bad. I'd 100% prefer to be a passenger in a Corolla or Camry.

I should've typed "meat and soybeans". You're probably right about the destination of most of our soybeans.

So unimpressive. The demos were terrible. Who would actually use it the way it was presented?
