It's a Black Mirror episode, if you want a preview: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Entire_History_of_You
> Original air date 18 December 2011
The first Black Mirror episodes were really like looking at the future.
I really recommend to see this episode as it shows what consequences such devices can have on people's lives.

We made something quite similar work rather well at $work. However, there is a somewhat subtle trick.
The staging/prod candidate is built from master/main branch 21 days old, plus potentially some (few) cherrypicks.
This allows to fearlessly commit to master, and then the “T-21” has 21 days of completely predictable future, that can be changed by doing cherrypicks.
So we can run intense testing on “T-0” aka main, find any issues and add them to be cherry-picked into the T-21.
The bonus is that when the fixes “arrive” to T-21, the cherry-picks become void and stop being applied.
Thus, absent the bugs, the staging/prod code automatically converges to main/master over time.
And yes, we do the reviews of the commits that go into master - but from the T-21 point of view they are 21 days in the future! So there is ample time for any reaction.
Would folks be interested in a more detailed write up ?

Yes please.
Few suggestions: 1. Change/Update your logo. I find it hard to read it the font is not best for alphabets. 2. In the product itself, the brand name is reversed for the shopkeeper. I initially thought maybe it's some smart name that could be read in reverse as well (like 1300135 lol). It is overengineered, just keep it simple it. 3. Add a real use-case demo in your website. It is currently filled with garbage/gibberish.
but it is not reversed for the client, who may be a potential future buyer of this product.
