Reset is an essential feature of any gadget. A pinhole of hope that assures new lease of life. A magic step to go back in time, to where it all started. Imagine a life without reset. The number of trips to the repair shop. Hesitant upgrade to the new gadget. A costly alternative to making it work.
Systems need a reset due to several reasons. An important one is a corrupt configuration. Caused by some malfunction of a subsystem. May be due to overload or overrun. A reset to factory default hopes to restore the system.
What if we had a reset switch for ourselves? What magic are we missing?
A daily dump and clean restart can help a bit. But nothing like a reset!
Maybe that’s why we designed one for our making!
