This is excellent! Wish it had more of the surrounding area, and the announcements are all queued/delayed, but still lots of fun. Love the style as well

Code as configuration loses one primary benefit which is being able to read the actual config and know exactly what will apply. In the example in the article you would get the same benefit by disallowing users to edit the config directly and instead require the config to be generated via a cmdline app/service that encodes the same policy?

When I started stardew I didn't know how to play so I would spend days waking up walking around and then go back to sleep repeating until my parsnips grew, but when I introduced my SO to the game, we ended up trying to learn how to actually play and then ended up with spreadsheets to track all the seasons, grow cycles, relationships and whatever else lol

I don't know why you think it's randomly (or recently) decided -- it started in 2020 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restrictions_on_TikTok_in_the_...), culminating in this act (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protecting_Americans_from_Fore...) banning the app, which passed 360-58.

Have you ever gotten 36 people to agree to something, let alone 360? There's obviously more to this that we aren't aware of.

Or maybe occam's razor suggests that there's indeed something more concerning about usage of the app that we aren't privy to?

To be honest, it's probably not enough to just block these scrapers if they are acting maliciously, people should just start serving generated content back to it and see how long it takes for them to catch on and fix the problem

I was just about to post the same thing -- quite a fascinating test of gpt's capabilities

But lots of airlines have come and gone or merged over the years and these systems would have already had to deal with new airlines codes?
