Sometimes I play with the idea of starting a company which makes really nice electronics that feels as little “tech” as possible. Ie where the user only have to interface with “tech” when absolutely necessary. Audio player that uses little nfc tokens, no screen. TV that just shows what’s input (with a hardware input switch.)

Queues. The most requested feature since I started Vercel 🥹 1️⃣ Send 𝚊𝚠𝚊𝚒𝚝 𝚜𝚎𝚗𝚍("𝚝𝚘𝚙𝚒𝚌", { 𝚖𝚎𝚜𝚜𝚊𝚐𝚎: "🔥" }); 2️⃣ Receive 𝚊𝚠𝚊𝚒𝚝 𝚛𝚎𝚌𝚎𝚒𝚟𝚎("𝚝𝚘𝚙𝚒𝚌", "𝚌𝚘𝚗𝚜𝚞𝚖𝚎𝚛", 𝚖 => { 𝚌𝚘𝚗𝚜𝚘𝚕𝚎.𝚕𝚘𝚐(𝚖.𝚖𝚎𝚜𝚜𝚊𝚐𝚎); // 𝙻𝚘𝚐𝚜 "🔥" }); Combine it with Active CPU pricing on Fluid, and you have a cost-efficient, performant, and now reliable backend system on Vercel.
