Looks good. The quantities input box behaves strange on Firefox mobile. Can't seem to delete the input and type something new. Jumps to a default or any number before I get to type my grams.

Prompting with documentation and examples works. In an agentic tool having an MCP server for the db helps assuming it is a straightforward schema with explicitly defined relationships. Also helps if the tables correspond to entities in a natural way.

Agreed with that. As with writing SQL by hand you have to be very specific with instructing an LLM. There are many ways to get to a solution in SQL all present different tradeoffs and corner cases. I found that people that don't understand SQL and the basic of a given schema produce garbage both by hand and with LLMs

Good point. Think of the device as a lock pick for Aldi carts you can remove it and don't need to leave your keychain.

I remember looking at palm webos devices in 2010 and thinking this is cool. The docs on how things worked were really good for the time. The hardware was sleek palm pre if I remember correctly.

I was not keeping track of who bought whom at the time an why. But was surprised when webos got shut down. Android was gaining traction windows mobile on the way out. I bought an old Nokia e63 around the time because I was short on money and I loved the keyboard. The article gave me some nice nostalgic memories.

Yes you can e.g. with the replit app. Quite powerful if you don't have a preferred editor and can stand the haptics of a phone to edit stuff

Same experience. For a while I had to do chrome again because it became unusable on my aging phone and then they turned the ship around.

I am always stunned when I have to use anything else at how unusable some pages are without my extensions.

This should be higher up. Everyone here thinks a simple shinny crud app to order materials for a fancy start up would be so much easier. In reality anything that starts like this will need to face this complexity at some point. Turns out the SAP way is a compromise between usability and extensibility that worked for a long time.
