Maybe I'm uneducated here, but wouldn't this just commoditize the products of companies? Would it disincentivize them from creating their products in the first place?

Could weather or some other geographic/similar aspect be a factor?

Glamorous toolkit has always looked interesting to me, but feels a bit unapproachable. It just feels so foreign between smalltalk and a whole sort of philosophy that goes with it.

For those with more experience, is it still relevant? Can the same be accomplished with python and jupyter notebooks?

How long ago was that? I've been seeing consistent progress on bugginess.

Not who you are responding to, but it properly blocks ads. I can actually view things like recipes on mobile. It's great! (Blocks YT ads too.)

Sorry, what are you saying happens at that point?

There may also be engineers working harder because of being worried about getting laid off. How could they separate those productivity increases from AI?

Don't you get the majority of that with buying movies from Apple? You can get 4K and Dolby Atmos. If there's DRM anyway, it seems like the difference isn't worth it.

I agree with the problems. I'm a bit uninformed, but in theory ending privatization isn't the only option, right? Hasn't there been problems with corruption in centralized healthcare as well? It seems like regulation could be an option (though I know that it has its own trade-offs as well).

Also, healthcare isn't the only industry suffering this pain though obviously a very important one.

Also, there's a question of how much of this is a cultural problem. How has this sort of thing been addressed in the past? Is the same solution even possible now with the power imbalance created with the current state of capitalism and technology?

I recently looked at various alternatives to make and landed on https://taskfile.dev/

It handles dependencies and conditions well without needing to be a full blown bash expert.

Maybe it's harder, but I don't think anyone is immune to calorie restriction.
