GCS launched publicly in 2010 [1]. That's still 4 years after S3, but it's not "recent".

I'm curious if you perceive white-labeling as a stepping stone or a reasonable destination. That is, it seems like you'd prefer for customers to buy directly from you, once you're ready for it. Precisely because of the diversity of vendors problem: you don't want them to think of the PrintNanny appliance/service as being from FormLabs or Inkbit or anybody else, you want them to know "We have our printers and then we have our PrintNanny". Right?
They seem instead to have created some other management consulting thing called "Humanocracy".
I'm not defending any of it, but HBR articles are not necessarily from HBS.
I'm curious though about the business plan going forward though (after the beta). My assumption would be that PrintNanny is currently targeting hobbyists and smaller 3d printing services.
I say smaller, because I assume that companies like Shapeways either already have something similar or would build their own if you tried to charge enough. (E.g., for $XM/yr they could hire multiple engineers to work on it full time).
Is the angle to expand laterally into more manual monitoring opportunities? (ShopNanny?) Go deeper? Is this market bigger than people think?
Of course, in 1896 an Edison company merged with the derivative of the original San Francisco Gas, to become San Francisco Gas and Electric. By 1905, that merged with something else to become PG&E.

Industrial and commercial customers often engage in Demand/Response programs though (primarily for building HVAC), so if there's a likely residential spike, they can shed some of their load.
If you want, there are plenty of JSON proxies including Cloud Endpoints [1]. I also do most things with manual curl'ing, and relied on the Google APIs to have these kinds of "Fine, we'll also take JSON" setups in place.
Once you've figured it out, you build the proto in your automation directly. But I basically never use grpcurl either.

AFAICT, Scala has basically been replaced by Go for backends and Kotlin (or just plain Java) elsewhere.
The final diagram [1] is also much less "readable" than the original figures from the paper.

Doesn't this actually depend on relaying the SMS from the phone? I don't think delivery works if your phone isn't in range of the laptop.
Even the watch seems to require the relay to work for receiving [1]:
> To receive SMS, MMS, or push notifications from third-party apps on your cellular Apple Watch, your paired iPhone must be powered on and connected to Wi-Fi or cellular, but it doesn't need to be nearby. You also need to be signed in to iMessage on your iPhone to use Messages on your watch.
Can people comment on what has happened since? 15 years is a long time in the research world. Did the hoped for things come to pass?
In case this wasn't meant to be a tongue-in-cheek statement: perfectly.
