Knobs on wheel, especially for the controls on this, are normal in performance vehicles.

From my understanding, if you want to use native Claude in AWS Bedrock, it runs from an AWS datacenter. I'm guessing that's why regardless of running your own stack... they still need a footprint in all the major clouds.

Sorry - significantly better was overreaction from my part. My view of Myrtle beach is somewhat muddied by the reason I was there in the first place. Was in GA for a wedding, was going to go to FL, but couldn't due to a hurricane and ended up quickly shuffling to Myrtle Beach. Felt like a memory of a town. I do have a coworker who recommended me some good spots, but not sure if I will ever make it back there https://maps.app.goo.gl/EbWrjJ92qgV3vx598.

Gatlinburg is maybe the ultimate tourist trap. Was hilariously enough also around there for a wedding.

I can't really argue for either as destinations. Both of these places I don't think I would go over other available options.

Gatlinburg is not my thing... but is significantly better than Myrtle Beach.

Its pretty safe to assume on a trail if you hear a bell that a bike is coming up behind you.

Here are a few things off the top:

- horrible optimization

    - video calls will easily bloat 1-3gb of ram

- buggy, things that should work sometimes don't

    - e.g. sometimes you click to write... you get a spinner, wait 10 seconds

- poor ux. I have been using it for 4+ years at work, still have trouble finding things

- yeah, all things in one interface

These are opinions. People can have different. To me, its just a slow and difficult to navigate mess that doesn't know what it wants to be.

Clickup is kinda like this (trash software btw) where it combines all these things. Its super cumbersome to deal with all of them in the same UI. For example, you will be chatting with someone, need to look at ticket, you have to completely leave the context of the chat to find the ticket. Yeah you can have multiple tabs, but still cumbersome. Would rather have a chat app for chat, documentation in documentation... so on.

> I’m shipping in hours what used to take days. Not prototypes. Real, structured, well-architected software.

> If I don’t understand what it’s doing, it doesn’t ship. That’s non-negotiable.

When even my "boomer" aged and non-tech savvy dad who has always used an iPhone notices the update is bad, I think you are in at least a little bit of trouble if you don't quickly course correct.

this looks like a rip off of another monitor that I can't quite put my finger on...

So apparently this has been around for 15 years? I would have bought this years ago, but it never showed up on any of my searches... google, reddit, producthunt, alternativeto... feel like I just shifted into another dimension where this has apparently... always existed?
