It's definitely on the expensive side, but the form factor on the newer fi collar model is _much_ better than before (important for me, having a small dog). Battery life is about as good (it dropped ~3-5% with a dogsitter as I was away for a week).

For that matter what do regular (amateur) boaters do if their sailboat or motorized boat get caught in a bad storm on the open ocean?

Re:You need Software Developers to believe in your project (2020)
on Thursday July 08, 2021 @01:03PM (#27774820)
There's a place for both- you need the devs who care more about adding business value quickly, and you need the devs that lean more towards perfectionism in how it's built.
Too little of the former, and nothing valuable gets done. Too little of the latter, and you end up drowning in technical debt, preventing the business from adapting as quickly as it needs to

If you're on mobile, zoom in to see the photos. If you zoom out, or (in my case) the default zoom is too far, you won't see the dots and boops will have no effect.

then the expression is occasionally replaced by a murderous look of rage when you have to maintain a 5k line script
Try dozens of 5k line Perl scripts
I think my expression will soon be permanently fixed into a look of murderous rage

What do you mean "passed through"? You can't just steal a key and replay it whenever you want. (Unless you physically steal the key)

Even if you phish their password to a site, the person can't log in because they also need the physical key. The key doesn't validate anything related to the domain AFAIK

The pro edition doesn't really have anything you'd otherwise get from VScode, and even then it's still free with an @edu email, or for OSS projects, or whatever other exceptions they have, so it's basically free
