I remember thinking that things like these will happen with Meetup.com more and more ever since they got acquired by WeWork -- and I've personally heard many organizers around me say that Meetup.com is getting worse and worse, but there's really not much to be done with the discovery dimension as they have the grand majority of the users.
I've since been working on an alternative: https://blinkmeet.com, but that didn't really account for much for various reasons.
I really do think that it's only a matter of time before Meetup.com goes down, this way or another.

>it's free (at least at the individual level)
Is it though? As far as I remember, to visit a doctor you had to pay €25 out of your pocket at the moment of the visit, 70% of which would be refunded by your health insurance at a later point (under the state system, and potentially more if you're paying for the additional private insurance or "mutuelle".

Agreed, I always feel like there is so much great shell-related code scattered all over people's dotfiles and we could all benefit from a kind of modernization you and the parent are mentioning.
This is my attempt so solve a small personal pain point in the shell while trying to keep track of various commands: https://github.com/bonidjukic/aka
It definitely comes nothing close to the Z.lua, but the enjoyment generated from getting to write the thing which optimizes even the tiniest parts of your daily tasks is quite wonderful.

Python conference: the conference was abruptly cancelled after the social event which went awry when couple of attendees got into a fight over mixed tabs.

Just wanted to say great job on the gist with the details on roles, funding etc!
I hope to see more of this sort of communication in job postings in the future.

Yes, it would be nice to see results with WAL, as it's significantly faster in most cases.

My guess is that the "catch" comes in the form of the list of limitations.

Of course not. I'm not sure why would you even think that.
