the moment your vibe-coded bot hits edge cases in message threading, you need someone who actually understands the abstraction layer.
Re:The right to use adblockers
on Thursday December 21, 2023 @06:49PM (#38728848)
Adblockers can be likened to piracy, similar to downloading movies from torrents.
It's true that service providers should be mindful of ad usage to avoid alienating users. However, using services and bypassing ads equates to appropriating the service's property.
If you disagree with a service's monetization methods, it's best not to use it. Don't steal it.

PlugBear does not access all your Slack messages. It only receives messages when you mention the @PlugBear to deliver it to your own OpenAI Assistant. Also, we are preparing a way to connect your own Slack bot. Please stay tuned, thank you!

OpenAI Assistant is an awesome tool for building customized AI assistants. However, I found that sharing these assistants with others can be challenging. I really wanted to introduce my bot to my teammates via Slack but, but found no straightforward method.
As a humble software engineer, I developed a service to connect OpenAI Assistant to Slack channels with no code. I'm eager to share this service with fellow OpenAI Assistant enthusiasts for feedback.

According to "No Rules Rules", letting a person not a great fit go makes the team more robust. I believe honesty is essential. How about explaining the differences between expectations and outcomes clearly and helping the person find a job that fits?
