Ecosystem is not mature yet for individuals?

Probably hundreds of millions or even billion people have devices that support biometric auth. How is that not mature?

Interesting list. I think you are very detached from what a normal user of computers/laptops today need. If you think features such as AudioCD ripping are in the top 100 features someone might ask from an OS today. Last time I saw someone using a CD was probably more than 10 years ago.

Someone who does need a window system can use many of the hundreds of tools available, or use something custom. Regular uses don't really care about window management systems.

Well, it is easy to be excited on a system that is lagging on features.

This is Mr. comedy is legal and free speech, and public town square, right?

I understand that he is a vile POS, but I don't understand people supporting him and using his products.

There is nothing to disprove as you don't understand what does a word mean. Deterministic is not a spectrum, they can either be deterministic or not. In both cases, they are not.

Are you saying scripts from agents are deterministic? :)

NO, this is referring to more than 750 customers with (large) $100K ARR, not Miro's ARR in total.

BS is slowly but steadily growing their userbase. Knowhing how did it go for their other purchases, of which I was using many (Komoot, Eventbrite, Meetup), not a single one has avoided constant nags of prompting for upgrades and dark patterns, so this will most likely end up in a similar way.

As many share, I used Miro and found it quite nice.

Fair enough, but they are not really cycling for 45 hours :)

I also usually just carry laptop if I need a bigger screen (and usually never use it on trips or holidays), but I do remember fondly of time when I had an iPad mini (not sure which gen), and it was very often in my jacket's pocket and was a really enjoyable device for consuming content, reading stuff, etc.

So when I was watching the keynote, I got those vibes of 'this is actually a form factor that I used in the past, if the price is not too wild I might get it'.

Was the 4-6% figure officially confirmed or just speculation?

I haven't met anyone who is serious about cycling and not using a real bike computer.

Wholesome read. These guys are enjoying life and I loved reading the FAQ in the end, as well as them acknowledging they are very lucky!
