Ooh, you were right. Either something has changed since my initial viewing (unlikely) or I have incorrectly assumed that it is in build.rs because all other examples don't contain `LicenseManager` (much more likely).
> However, all humans listen to people that they think are like themselves. Naturally, we place more weight on people with whom we have a common reference point.
Roku's own devices are powerful. However, Roku-integrated TV manufactures sometimes skimp on processing power, and I'm wondering if that was considered.
Also, I've migrated from Roku to Apple TV. Which is the best streaming media player in terms of performance, responsiveness, integration with other A/V equipment. And everyone already has a remote for it in their pockets. So, if Roku wants to dig their own grave...continue with the ads.
I find it a decent barometer for how much a topic is being searched for. This is relevant to determining the popularity of a search term, which relates to the popularity of a topic.
Why would they willing give the interior UX to Apple?
CarPlay started with the center console screen, and its now clear Apple wants to take over the dash and any auxiliary screens.
Lots of comments seem to say no CarPlay = no purchase. But I would be weary of Apple as they tend to lock features away.
For example, MB Command NTG 4.5 from 2006ish could show text messages on the in-vehicle display. This was accomplished with a Bluetooth standard. Today the same thing would require CarPlay/Android Auto.
Amazon Alexa is no doubt a great microphone but it’s also an exceptional bastion host for Amazon. And probably a great malware delivery device. I found out Alexa let me know my printer was running low on toner. So if it can do that it can spy in a lot of other things.
I don't think it's "spying" so much as reading the information supplied by the IPP enabled printer that's on the network. The printer readily supplies that information, the Alexa isn't really snooping. If anything, the printer shouldn't be supplying information across the network that readily - I know I turned off a lot of my printer's capabilities because I have no desire to let people use it outside of my local network.
I think the point is that alexa is actively scanning the network for that information, which begs the question what else is it scanning for, or might in a future automatic update?
Fair enough. It would be prudent to assume that your Alexa is actively looking for whatever open information is supplied by devices on your network, especially information that has been announced as being supported by Amazon[1].
Nothing wrong with plain js. Now with Web Components, View Transition API, and Plain old Event + addEventHandler() you can do a lot.
You may want to consider HTMx and its hx-boost which is akin to Turbolinks if you've ever used that.
The addition of Hooks, HOC, Redux, etc. are for large teams, complex apps and/or varying skill levels.
Keep in mind plain js means no enforcement of standard patterns. This may cause problems with onboarding new devs and/or keeping the app manageable as complexity grows.
Also React and plain js are not mutually exclusive.
I also started around 2007ish, MooTools, jQuery, Backbone, Ember, Angular JS, Angular, React and now Nextjs. But for basic projects I usually start with plain js.
