An PWA primarily for my wife and my daughter. They can order their hot chocolate and their coffee as if they were going to grab something at a fancy café downtown, but instead it's at home and I'm the barista. It is quite nice to have for when my wife comes back from work and want something specific, or when we are waiting for the visit of a few friend, they can order exactly the available beverages and everything is ready when they're here.

It was also a good playground for me to implement Web Push notifications (to never miss new orders).

It's a basic Nuxt 3 app with Appwrite as the backend with rough edges, but much enough for our household use !

If you want to spam my phone with notifications, please visit my café : https://mytinycafe.com/alix

And it was entirely predictable and predicted that this sort of problem would be the result when that choice was made.

Staff engineers get the most time savings out of AI tools, and their weekly time savings is 4.4 hours for heavy AI users. That's a little more than 10% productivity, so not anywhere close to 10x.

What's more telling about the survey results is they are also consistent in their findings between heavy and light users of AI. Staff engineers who are heavy users of AI save 4.4 hours a week while staff engineers who are light users of AI save 3.3 hours a week. To put another way, the DX survey is pretty clear that the time savings between heavy and light AI users is minimal.

Yes surveys are all flawed in different ways but an N of 20k is nothing to sneeze at. Any study with data points shows that code generation is not a significant time savings and zero studies show significant time savings. All the productivity gains DX reports come from debugging and investigation/code base spelunking help.

What's the actual extent of the problem?

There have been way too many articles and videos at this point to keep pointing at the same small data set.

I've personally never experienced an overcharge, and at 1 in 5, it should have happened by now.

Is this a one store thing, or a regional thing, or should I just put those thoughts on hold and rage blindly?

- in rural america, there are dollar stores everywhere that overcharge for small items. people treat them as a necessary evil and begrudgingly shop there.

- in nyc, there are corner bodegas everywhere that overcharge for small items. they are generally seen as beloved neighborhood institutions.

so... what's the difference? corporate owned vs family owned? length of time in community? presence of cute cat at the register?
