Is on the binary available or is the source available? It is disingenuous to say it’s open source if that’s the case. How could this be supported into the future?

They are right about new habits needed. And this is where everyone should start. Sometimes a quick prompt has killed 5 hours of meetings to discuss if it were worth it.
Well put. What world are folks living in where it wouldn’t be the obvious choice.
Code is not the cost. Engineers are. Bugs come from hindsight not foresight. Let’s divide resources between OSs. Let all diverge.

Give stats. Often, rarely. What apps? I’d say rarely, often. People code bad native UIs too, or get constrained in features.
Claude offer a CLI tool. Like what product manager would say no to electron in that situation.
This article makes no sense in context. The author surely gets that.
Cursor opened in config/ + HomeAssistant MCP is exceptionally good.
I have blundered along with Home Assistant over the years, but it lit up with the above setup for me the other day.
For giggles, I had it set all the lights into a disco.
Next, we vibed a markdown file containing a to-do list of all my upstairs lights that are abstractly named by the different integrations.
I put an x against a name and it turned the light off.
Once I identified it, I wrote a better name next to it. It updated the system.
We vibed dashboards and routines.
The problem with Home Assistant is that once it works, you don't touch it for a year and are back to square one with the layers of concepts.
But I am left satisfied knowing I have backed up the conversation/context that we can pick up next year or whenever again.
