Well, the positive traits you listed are certainly true, but let’s face it: she was also very intelligent and had a self-deprecating sense of humor, so there’s that.

Are the results in video generation precise enough to remove the need for 3D modeling?

CI/CD — Continuous Incidents, Continuous Defense.

…and once again, „flood the zone with shit“ works just beautifully.

They push out one outrageous diversion after another, and you fall for it.

Mh, if anything, this would make me want to do business with them more.

The problem with this is that iirc, this also signals to web pages that you do not like a lot of motion, which IS a nice UX enhancer for some pages, but might supress animations from (auto)playing where it's not what you want because the animations are the reasons you're visiting that page.
