For what it’s worth I’ve been using HA for 5 years and don’t deal with any of that and it generally just works. I was dealing with worse with overlapping hubs and ecosystems. All my switches are unicellular and ceiling fans and lights are t

They are. Looks like the creator: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38090161 Note: I’m not forming an opinion on it or saying to use or not use it, was simply curious because I hadn’t heard of it.

It took a bit down to get to someone like me too. Have had no issues since day one and now I'm going to be insanely critical of them.

That's the point. He said one of those things on April 13th, the other he said, presumably, yesterday, May 6th.

It made a rough transition for me because all of the things going wrong were all too familiar. Then when it wrapped up very nicely I felt like I was bad at my job. "Wait, how did they fix it so fast!?!" (hyperbole here but it was

A lot of this was covered in "The Phoenix Project". A good read but a bit idealistic in the expected outcome. The fake company was essentially able to right the sinking ship after the band had already stopped playing, in 2 quart

Compared to today's tracks it's insane to me that Nürburgring was widely used. The logistics at the track are clearly very high stakes and seeing how we could look at how huge that track is and think that's a good idea just

I don't quite get why you can't disable these notifications at all. I really don't want to see the things I missed or it finds interesting. And they're purposefully pushing you to look at it to dismiss those notificat

This launch event was very odd. It seemed like a launch event geared towards the general public but about a media platform for the media. No real launch details and no pricing structure with no previews of shows. Given the recent debacle

I wonder how much the proliferation of start up failures has to do with this very fact versus a poor product/model/founder/execution/etc. Not saying that the employees are to blame but I'm sure there's plenty o

This is purely anecdotal but lately I've been getting more and more delivered via Amazon's own carrier service. 100% of the time it is late. Some things have completely disappeared and never left the SF carrier facility. It&#x2

I'm pretty sure this is directly in response to them pulling the Youtube App from the FireTV devices.

This is using the wrong tool to solve the problem. Could it work? Sure. Is it a good solution? No.

Less than 2.0 is more or less an alpha imo. I use 2.0 in production and love it. But not sure how they’re going to get over all the bad PR 1.0 and 1.1 generated.

Every single AMZL package I've had in the past month has been delayed. What's more frustrating, there's no actual reason for it being delayed. The last one that was delayed was delayed for 2 days. I contacted chat and appar

Typically you’re fired when you do something bad. I wouldn’t consider what Tesla did as firing anyone. Poor performance isn’t typically a “bad thing” in this sense. For instance, if someone went and pissed in the coffee pot, they would be f

Running outside, I definitely don't want to carry my 7+. It's large and I have the watch.

This is why I've finally accepted the fact that for my own personal tracking, nothing beats a post-it note. I'm not going to spend the time to put down all the real information I should and dealing with an app is another barrier

I would argue that Apple's core competency isn't hardware but the Apple "experience". In the same way that Google uses search to sell ads, Apple uses the hardware it sells to sell everything that goes with it: music, iC

I dont see why they're marketing this so positively given the Digg fiasco. I feel like it's "remember when digg was redesigned and everyone hated it and came to Reddit? Well we're gonna redesign the site too!"

The amazing thing about the entire discussion is how it really was a scientific discussion that evolved over time. There are clearly scientific ideas that we take as simple truths now that will be disproved in the future. They are clearly

Everytime I fly cross country, which is every 3 weeks. So yeah, this is a pretty big deal. I also charge my phone while I'm doing that so when I land in CA my phone has a full battery since I have a full 8 hour work day there and my

I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in thinking that if they made the phone a little bit thicker to make if flush, we could get some crazy battery life (and a headphone jack).

Yeah, this person doesn't seem to understand that PayPal is a huge merchant provider for a lot, and I mean, a lot, of people. And that doesn't mean "using paypal" when you go to a website. They handled invoicing at my l

Almost all security audits in an enterprise/corporate setting are done in good faith. This is a person they hired and I'm assuming have spoken on the phone with so it's not unsolicited. Trust me, I've had similar things

Missed this comment but I don't take offense to it. In all honesty, if you have a well designed system it's pretty good at what it does. I've used it without any issues on small personal projects and it was great at what it
