You can still start such a company now. The tricky part is to gain the trust of customers.

It is AI assisted. I still wrote code and designed the core architecture of how it works.

I mean, it's a color scheme. With like 5 colors. So good luck getting it copyrighted anyway.

I believe the major hurdle would be from the "renter" part.

Usually such installations are only allowed to be done by the owners, not tenants.

Interesting, but some of the information is conflicting: the design was about "No assumed orientation. Something that works in a mirror" but then the 24-hour arc talks about "(top, 12 o'clock position) clockwise".

Placing midnight on top forces an orientation, while specifying clockwise makes mirroring impossible.

But this is only on the text description, the actual clock would work anyway.

People are still be born in Sparta, Greece; no time travel needed.

It's pretty straightforward to sync the contacts on the phone with the contacts on Fastmail via CardDAV, using DAVx5 for example.

I've been using fastmail for over a decade. davx is fragile. Many phone brands (all the OnePlus for example) interact poorly with it. I regularly have to trigger syncs by hand.

Still better than google, but the story here is not great.

Right! ed was the first one, and its ideas and commands influenced sed (a "streams" ed), and ex (an "extended" editor, which also had a "vi"sual mode).
