Requiring seperate Amazon only sku's (especially if they need it to be printed on the product label) is a giant PITA.

Definitely worth doing, but keeping up with all of Amazon's compliance requirements requires a fairly robust logistics system.

mac, because 1) posix compliant and 2) there is no viable consumer alternative to apples silicon. maybe once AMD catches up i can swap to a framework

Your analogy is equating homosexuality to heroin addiction. Was this intentional?

why would old code be worth less? to me its a great achievement for a codebase to maintain stability and usability over a long timespan.

if you venture even five feet into the world of enterprise software (particularly at non tech companies) you will discover that fifteen years isnt a very long time. when you spend many millions on a core system that is critical to your business you want it to continue working for many, many years.

Yes, a configuration app for a proprietary service that was built on Silverlight.

Our current form of government doesn't seem likely to last 25 years, let alone 250.

Laws generally continue across governments anyway.

There's an oft-repeated factoid that recognizable organized civilizations last about 10 generations or 250 years on average. And then there's Strauss–Howe generational theory. There's no magic formula or universal fate except it's risky to have lots of corrupt, stupid leaders, injustice, inequality, and/or bad circumstances that do everything to avoid rare, effective leadership with integrity and labor wealth growing faster than capital wealth. Late stage capitalism is omnicidal and suicidal because the greedy fools involved tend not to care about or plan for the future, including a cognitive dissonance to deny anticipation of domination by externalities like changes in youth public sentiment, demographic shifts, geopolitical balances, and climate change. The current richest people in the world are drug addicts, warlords, pedophiles, and those who erroneously believe public beaches belong to them personally.

Probably cuz you aren't looking yeah. Anthropic seems to be leading the "loyalty" war in the US.

Yeah and I'll probably end up going that way as work locks down the models we're allowed to use, saving Mistral for personal projects.

I can confirm that Simone (Maybe) is my favorite :) I especially like looking through them with the color set to Angular instead of Solid, so you can see where the peak acceleration is happening. Makes the big curves prettier :) great project!
