I don't get the features: is it an app that auto-organizes the Desktop and moves the actual file into another folder + the cabinet UI?

Claude suggested the same approach for something very similar I asked and ended up deploying and using. Quite useful and snappy architecture (never used workers or durable objects). Definitely not self-hosted but whatever, I think you got the msg from all other comments.

I built it without having a chatbot interface cause I don't see much of the point, like I didn't see the improvement in usefulness 5 years ago re "natural language" task creation a la todoist.

1. People *across generations* had to skill up. 2. software being very opaque (very differently from agriculture/mechanized labour) imo is linked to having a plethora of support roles that cannot write software but "handle the human part" and help make it readable, while spreading accountability. Hopefully with a "more readable/more standardized" software development, those [product|project|people] management roles can stop being a drag/bottleneck. (code was never the bottleneck we repeat ourselves since age immemorial)

here is your scapegoat. no lesson learnt. another round please.

all good, but why `5. install twitter`? > it's a huge time sink but everything happens there in the open.

... ok? i don't get why the tradeoff is worth it?

You don't keep violent and intelligent animal as pets, you keep them in cages at the zoo.

yeah for headphones, I also feel the same. But for food and coffee, I really cannot go back to lower standards. It feels like I put myself in a trap with this attitude. I have not found a way out yet.

Tell me more! I need to hear this! I'm fed up with being a critic. It feels like a trap I set myself into without realizing. I'm at the point where I can only enjoy coffee brew at home with expensive toys and I'm becoming miserable about it: Id prefer the freedom to have anything anywhere while being able to enjoy. Applies to coffee but also other things. So yeah, pls tell us more.

with "dev wanting X" nothing happens. "leadership deciding X" then it needs to get done.

Agree but nothing easy about that.

I think I would like to be able to answer the following two questions:

1. what percentage of this object price is net profit? 2. is that percentage a "fair" proportion?

but atm, I don't have a "scientific" way to respond to those questions so I usually go with my gut, or do whatever other people in my circle do (which is not ideal and I'd like to change)

Hey, I completely agree and I also suffer from this same bias: it's ruining me from enjoying stuff that I would like to buy but in the end I just give up because it feels that any profit is a scam. What kind of resource can I study for me to understand and accept other people making profits?
