They've since implemented permanent no expiration cache for logged in users so... Either they don't prefer new chats, or this it their really indirect way of discouraging it

You can get a an order prefilled

With computer use Both Astra and Sol have been able to make sense of my markdown recipes, and based on those place prepare a shopping cart for me to review and finish buying

Probably a bit much for the average user though, even if it's trivial to setup

Gmail, Meet and Presentations do all of those

People use them, if for no other reason, because they are cheap, or are part of the Chromebook generation and have gotten used to it

Of their suite, Presentation and Sheets are the only ones people really have gripes about, Sheets by power users because it isn't Excel and it can never be, and Presentations because it's the ugly duckling of the suite

I get that the propietary harness is better most of the time, but if this is really a risk factor to consider why not go with one of the open source harnesses?

Pi/OpenCode seem pretty straight foward and widely used enough for this to be viable

OMP as I understand does it's own vendoring of tools, so I assume it'd be a pain in the ass to audit, but that means you're even safe from base OS shenanigans

How would you compare it to C#? Stable-ish There's a lot of documentation and plenty of stablished patterns, so LLM can produce it no sweat Everything and the Kitchen Sink Performant, and safeish, even if not null safe
