I wish they took the use-case of resizable panels into account. Even if the implementation is fully user-land, a styleable separator that can also receive events would be so useful.
my dad keeps his calendar in an excel file with almost the exact same format except he omits dates with no entries. Every week he prints a new version of this on a single A4 which he folds and keeps in his wallet. new events are hand written at the bottom and get included in the excel weekly. he's been doing this for as long as I can remember.

The state of the product's security wasn't unexpected. I was, however, shocked by this part:
> I was willing to overlook:
> The bed costs $2,000
> It won’t function if the internet goes down
> Basic features are behind an additional $19/mo subscription
> The bed’s only controls are via mobile app

I’ve tried several proof of concepts with Bolt and every time just get into a doom loop where there is a cycle of breakage, each ‘fix’ resurrecting a previous ‘break’
- don't try to fix mistakes, revert and try with an updated prompt. the context seems to get polluted otherwise.
- don't treat it as a black box, inspect the generated code and prompt to write specific abstractions. don't just tell it what to build, but also how. this is where experienced programmers will get way more mileage.
