You are missing the biggest value offering here - service such as the one linked here (or healthchecks io that I personally use) will let you know that signal didn't arrive even when other things on your end failed (e.g. cron having a hard time sending failure email due to incorrect smtp credentials). I use those kind of healthchecks literally for everything, especially for backups - they saved my ass many times over.

The goal is - and I think they have achieved it - is that you don't have to think about it. They handle sync, and they do it reliably.

You mean.. like a newspaper?

This is the best thing I've read today!

It's hilarious how little info they provide about what's that they are removing.

Great insights. In US people do ask one another "how are you?", perhaps in a shallow way - but I think it's still an opener that can lead to more meaningful conversation. In Poland for instance, where I'm from, people don't ask "how are you?" one another - which slightly limits that opportunity. At the same time Europe as a whole has so much better work life balance which allows for many more outside work friends and family connections and spending time together.

Very cool! I like the simplicity of it. Right now I'm working on something similar for myself (and some of my family), but maybe other people find it potentially interesting too? Essentially I'm building a webapp that each time I use it will arrange random ~5-7 lower back exercises from a list of ~25 for a total of 10 minutes session. Then it will guide me (only time and name of exercise) through the workout session (counting down the exercise time, and pause/break time). The problem I'm solving is to not have to think too much about what exercise I should/want to do next, make it a little bit more fun/interesting (due to randomness aspect) and free my hands from operating a timer to time myself (also less likely to drift to social media or youtube videos). Thoguhts?

I don't think edge in this case mean browser. I think edge in this case is more similar to a CDN node.

I'm Polish (well, not spending much time in Poland lately), but just FYI this practice (not the election silence - that is true) is not something me or family ever heard about. Maybe it exists, but it's not popular.

This is beautiful, I wonder if there is a way to make it avaliable to more people. Not even as a business - I just imagine it would help a lot of families in similar situations.

I don't mean it in a bad way but I scrolled through the website, watched the video, and still don't really know what is the product/service/offering and when would I need it.

I appreciate author sharing the learnings, that being said given product is not very successful I question the value of such learnings.

It's Amazon, it's not a startup.

I so agree. I also love how it's content vs form focused.
