Not even really talking about websites, talking about data that needs to be constantly refreshed. The moisture sensor in my yard isn't running off a website but it still runs smoother on a PC vs. my phone/android interface.

You sure you know enough about what I'm talking about?

You should be a politician or a goalie with all the goal post moving we're doing.

Not talking about crashes, bud. Never have been.

Ah, I see. Your servers work so well that you forgot you had them and you're accidentally crediting mobile for their work.

Out of all my devices in the fully connected home, the phone is the least reliable.

Dunno why you champion it, maybe you'll have a better argument for a comparable reliability x speed in a few years but it lacks that right now.

The most confusing part about this conversation is that I'm using a lot of different platforms for programming. There is no contest, mobile still underperforms my other equipment. You'd be aware of its shortcomings too if you did what I did.

Next time maybe you can refrain from moving goal posts when your previous assertions don't stand up to scrutiny.

You should probably brush up on connectivity, No one except for you seems to want to die on this hill that mobile is more effective than ethernet with speed.

Most programmers seem to know this already.

There's a difference between one wanting something to be true and whether or not it actually is. I know you love your mobile and use it for everything but it's still not the fastest.

And I'm not saying this will always be the case, I'm just saying you live in a future that doesn't exist yet.

Believe me, I'd love to be able to program everything using my Fold 3 but the damn thing hates most things that aren't Android.

Look, your favorite platform is not under attack right now. That's not the point I'm trying to make.

What I'm saying is that some programming work is better off using an ethernet cable than a cellular connection. Sorry my guy, mobile is not what they use in MIT for weather updates or small incremental changes. They still use ethernet for that.

Do not mobile for any program that needs a moderately steady connection, that is also dealing in precise minute by minute measurements.

Is that better? Mobile is still lacking in precision work, whether or not that will be true in a few years is up for grabs still.

Do not mobile for a program that needs a moderately steady connection.

As someone who used them in school all the time and got free ones from time to time, alphasmarts if you can stomach the first generation storage spaces. We're talking something like a few gigs if you get a really premium model.

The screen is also something like a typewriter, only having two or three lines visible at a time.

If you do go that far though, there's really no reason to avoid a cheap laptop, which will probably be better in every single way...

People be saying (or implying) that this product is useless but I can think of quite a few things in the tech space that could use a simple, always on interface.

From certain types of code to servers, this could be something neat.
