homebrew casks have acceptance criteria.
Gmail has one killer feature which is the auto-acceptance of calendar invites. to put it better yet, it will put any and all invites and invite-looking things from emails into your Calendar. you still need to mark "yes i will attend" manually. that, as far as i am concerned, is the perfect UX for this workflow. i don't wanna have to create calendar items manually, feels very previous-century.
i tried to migrate from Workspace to iCloud but dealing with the insane OSX Calendar app which not only does not put anything into your itinerary automatically but is liable to just disappear items from the Calendar randomly, put me off so much i went right back to Workspace.
oh on you didn't. fuck that shit!!
downvoted for nostalgic use of Slashdot vernacular? we don't read these memetic cultural artifacts very often anymore. sometimes, you use them, just to keep them alive as a memento of a bygone era.
> I think there is a decent argument that some of the nihilism we see in the population comes from seeing a general unwillingness to jail or proportionately punish wealthy criminals.
You are so right. Whatever the benefit of having laws at all is, it evaporates when laws are selectively not applied.
We're seeing the consequencefs of it today, in the "content creation" business and many other. It's a dog eat dog situation. Truth lost any relevance. As the influencer you know very well that whatever you're feeding your audience is empty hope, dreams and fantasy. As long as the check from IG/YT/TikTok is big enough, you don't care. Why care?
You win the internets, sir.
> On the other hand these tools do allow individuals to connect and share.
Ok, Mark. That's enough.
Any coder can build a tool that allows individuals to connect and share. It's not a unique feature of Meta tools.
The unique property of Meta is that they have a hegemony. Which is ok.
They went further than that, though, and built the infrastructure for influencing the decisions of individuals. That's no longer ok.
I don't understand what you're trying to say. What is an enterprise here - give me an example.
> LLM's are lame and uncool. Kids especially dislike them a lot on that basis alone.
That's interesting and the first time I hear of this. Could you provide any links that might elucidate this?
This is an insane comment what you wrote.
I live in a European country with public free healthcare. Sure, you pay a portion of your income towards healthcare, so it's not really free etc. etc. If you don't have income, the state pays it for you.
There isn't any denial of healthcare. I never heard about anything like that. Sure, there are limits on availability of healthcare, particularly if it's some advanced or expensive procedure. For example, there is a place where they do radio surgery on the brain. There may only be one such place in the country (it's a small country). If you need that kind of procedure done, obviously there is a waiting list. And certainly some of those on a waiting list must have died.
But there is no denial of healthcare per se with someone making a decision to deny healthcare.

How about not letting them die on the streets? I thought Canada was a society.
HCL being so restricted is the reason why many teams feel the need to implement a layer on top of it.
Once you’re working with HCL templated via Gomplate or what have you, and a pipeline which processes the code base and then spits out the resultant HCL as an artifact to be used by a subsequent step, you’ll pine for the impenetrable JS or Python code. At least that is code which has a reasonable development workflow associated with it, not a monstrosity held together with duct tape and vulgar hacks.
