I had one of those, with the expansion box under the monitor, 300 baud modem, and 2 of those 5 inch drives. coded z80 byte by byte using pencil and paper for some things, didn’t have an assembler just a book. The basic language was pretty well formed on it too. My first contract job was while I was in high school writing a program in basic on it to do stats and print graphs on a dot matrix printer for some guys college dissertation.
Literally the device upon which I learned to code. Ruined my life 
Yeppers…setup on a card table in our living room…those stupid 5" floppies… and a 1200 baud dial up modem…we have come so far…and THAT is my point…how far we have come…give it time … Smart Homes…we are headed there.
You had 1200 baud? I’m so freaking jealous! 
Ha ha ha! 17 00 00 = LD HL, 0
I had an assembler/disassembler but the tape was so worn out that I started learning machine code. 0xC9 = 201 = RET… I even knew short jumps and long jumps… At first, I would write in assembly, then manually convert it to machine code with a table I empirically found myself. Later, I became so “lazy” that I would read/write machine code directly. 632 commands… I was only 13 in '92 when I first came in contact with the Z80. Ah, sweet memories and showing off LOL
Yikes, I still remember mom cleaning out my room, picking the 5" disks like they were a rim of paper, bending most of them, ah the agony…
I knew a guy that could whistle his login at 300 baud. Weirdest thing to watch.
Not even sure Captain Crunch claims such a feat. I recall whistle tool kits, much like lock pick sets.
Our school had Commodore PETs from my 7th grade onward. I got a Vic-20 in about '83. Even managed to change the default palette, don’t know how I did that though. Cassette tape storage. I also learned to code in machine, the school didn’t have an assembler on the PETs. We did have COBOL and FORTRAN on the mainframe system. The other was some other terminal system with WordStar on it. Both were fun to hack.
Using a hole punch to double storage capacity, those were the days!
Yep, I had the first laptop…

Ok, leave it to the community to hijack a thread forty ways to Sunday…
But …
Here is one, would you look into ‘My Contacts’ situation? Notification is an important feature of ST. Some of us are using the ‘My contacts’ feature, while it seems to be working fine, there are reports of missing notifications (I know for example I am no longer receiving (some) notifications from SHM. I know many of us are using this feature in our custom apps. The question is, should we?
That sounds like a fine thing to dig into! Just to clarify is this the same point as in @pstuart list? It seems like contact book is maybe a legacy term? It seems like that the same thing as ‘My Contacts’ though.
Yes, you have a choice right now, if you have the “My Contacts” enabled on your account, you can send notifications in smartapps with the UI to specific contacts. Without it, notifications go to all contacts.
However, the built in notifications like Hub offline, low battery and SHM that have no UI for selecting the contacts are broken and will not send out notifications.
@tyler helped me with a workaround but I don’t know if it should be made public. Hopefully ST will fix the built in Smartapps and expose the ability to choose who should get notifications.
Otherwise the only real answer is have support remove the “My Contacts” / contact book from your account and those notifications will start again. However, any custom notification smartapps will then break.
Thanks for your quick response! The “Contact Book” feature was launched with v2. Here is a good starting point for this fiasco:
This…
That doesn’t work for me, and the problem was since 2013?!
Have you tried increasing the caffeine intake?
Seriously though, are you on v2 hub or v1, that may be the problem…
