What worked for me well is if I share my screen and capture the common notes / mural for everyone to see. You might not catch the spellings etc., need to ask, but that's probably the question everyone has.

That way there are less misunderstandings, everyone is aligned, and I can send the notes right after the meeting.

I thought that unit tests are a balance. A balance of not too much, not too little. "Too little" means you are not covered on the edges. "Too much" means the tests are too rigid its scary to change the code.

Ideally, "one change" (Whatever that might be) in production code should cause exactly 1 test to fail.

How does TestGen-LLM address this problem?

> support for optional features and dependencies tied to them, ala cargo.

For those of us who relies on trunk-based-development and feature flags, lack of this feature has been major pain! I can't remember how many times we had to keep a feature in a branch because it needs a change in package.json.

In that case, I think the point is the difference between what is LLM "assisted" tests (like say Copilot) vs. LLM "owned" tests.

Just to be clear, I was talking about the original sound produced by a person (vs. a machine). Of course it was recorded and played back a _lot_ more than folks listening live.

But I take it, maybe I'm not so familiar with world music, I was talking more about Indian music. While the music is recorded and mixed across several tracks electronically, I think most of it is played (or sang) originally by a person.

> I don't believe, movie makers are out of business any time soon

My son was learning how to play keyboard and he started practicing based on metronome. At some point, I was thinking, why is he learning it at all? We can program which key to be pressed at what point in time, and then a software can play itself! Why bother?

Then it hit me! Musicians could automate all the instruments with incredible accuracy since a long time. But they never do that. For some reason, they still want a person behind the piano / guitar / drums.

The flash it gives on "Restart" is blinding/annoying. Not sure if it makes a difference, but I'm in dark mode in Firefox.

Cool idea btw! Combining tween + web-sys, that too up and running in 5 days. Kudos!
