I bought a XPS 13 dev edition with Ubuntu 12.04 in 2014 and it still works like a charm. Instead of Ubuntu it is running Fedora 37 nowadays with a decent performance. All hardware is still original.

Mobile/Micro payments. There is still no friction free solution, where I would be sure, my mother could use it.

> can't believe the author doesn't mention gitlab.

I absolutely agree. We use Gitlab in our company for continuous deployment and it works like a charm.

Apart from the other tools I miss some performance monitoring. Sentry is great, but if your application suffers from bad performance after the latest deployment, you won't notice that soon enough.
