My ex once got rickrolled in a public bus. I said the song is cool and kept it playing on speakerphone. The whole bus genuinely enjoyed it (people singing along), nobody complained :)

Well eating the fruit from tree of knowledge was a pretty big sin…

No reason, few decades ago oven used to work just as well as they do today with knobs, thermostats and spring timers.

That’s why I said good question.

The oven I mentioned isn’t this smart but there exist ovens like

COOKING MADE SMARTER WITH WIFI POWERED BY SMART HQ: Voice-enabled cooking allows you to turn microwave on and off, add time or change power level via Alexa or Google Assistant; Scan-To-Cook Technology saves time and optimizes frozen food preparation

good question :)

I think it’s integrated ram inside the microcontroller. It stores states and programming (time, temperature etc) + the working memory for the program running on cpu. Surely some registers can do that but who cares.

Yes, except container devel (need to use ssh).

I’ve an oven which when turned off in hot state while in convection mode will turn on the fans for few minutes next time I turn it on, regardless of mode and temperature. To overcome this bug I need to put mains power off for couple of minutes and let the caps keeping the ram alive drain. Not only it has hot state reset bug but also a ram initialization issue as well it seems. Thankfully that state is not stored in nvram.

The manufacturer was as expected: ‘we’re not software guy, we can send an ‘expert’ engineer (who knows only to replace parts, no debugging) and it’ll cost $$’. I thought I’ll reverse it and fixing someday, till then I’ll live with it.

Any tech college kid can write an app in common frameworks. I’ll admit llm code generators are great when they can translate electron apps to say tauri or even better to QT at reasonable cost :)
