The lack of an intervalometer in ANY camera today is an insufferable insult.
Not to mention that the assertion in the title of this post is wrong, at least in the USA. We have a federal law called the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act that makes it illegal to void the warranty of a product simply because the user modified it.
Canon cameras have enjoyed some fairly active open-source/hacker support. Check out Magic Lantern and CHDK (I can't tell if that one's still maintained).
"we're going to just go back to text on top of a rectangle like Windows 3.1?" A lot of people forget this since flat design is just how everything is done nowadays."
That's contradictory. "Flat" design is just text on a rectangle (at best); Windows 3.1 actually indicated what was a control and what its state was.
I wanted to try Insomnia, but could not install their deb package on my Debian: it depended on a "libappindicator3-1" which is not available in my current release. I'll stick to basic CLI tools when I experiment with web APIs.
The Swagger editor doesn't support OpenAPI 3.1 either, which is surprising since the OpenAPI spec was initially ported from the Swagger format.
I raised an issue for this a while ago. Insomnia uses the Swagger UI library, which also (bizarrely) doesn't support 3.1, so Insomnia is blocked until that library is updated.
That's traditional at the Big 6 (now 4, or whatever it is now). Andersen Consulting (now Accenture) bought an entire former college campus and prides itself on churning new hires who majored in almost anything (many liberal-arts majors like English or what have you) through a six-week programming course there, and then putting them on jobs. I went through it.
I walked past one such hire on the job afterward, and noticed that the code on her screen made a line from the upper left to the lower right corner. Closer inspection revealed that she had written 32 nested statements to iterate through the 32 characters in a part number (used by our clients for military equipment).
After leaving 5 years later, I went to PWC (then just Price Waterhouse). They did not have their shit together nearly as well as Andersen, let me tell you. So... that's kinda scary.
