It's frustrating, since it feels like an intelligent enough approach should be able to skip the rote practice, but it turns out that conceptual mastery requires mastery of execution, which requires familiarity, which requires practice.

And I say this as someone with very strong intuition, who was always asking why I needed to practice if I already understood, who often grasped concepts immediately - turns out, I still needed practice to understand thoroughly.

Most recent flight we took, she couldn't find her passport for the extra security check right before the gate. It took us about half an hour to get around to having the security open up the (now closed) bag scanner, which lo and behold, had somehow eaten her (securely places in the bin) passport. The tech was shaking his head, saying "See, this is why you don't put your passport loose in the bin" as if that's a normal thing everyone already knows specifically to avoid.

If your goal is to defeat an AI detector for kicks, this might work. If your goal is to save effort by using AI to produce text, I don't think this works.

If it's a bad offer, it's a bad offer. If there aren't enough good offers, forbidding a weird benefit probably won't fix that anyway.

I get that in a literal sense you wouldn't be vegan anymore, but if you're maintaining the same ethical framework that led you to veganism, it's not unreasonable to want to express that.

It was very clever of you to choose to be born to tolerable parents with enough spare cash to let you live with them and save up, rather than jerks or even just poor parents that needed your help as soon as you got a job.

Except for Scotland, of course.

As a user, comparitive "performance" is about the code people actually write, and even more on the code that I'm most likely to interact with. I don't actually care whether or not the code could be faster if it was written better, because it always could, and it never is. When people say "Electron is slow and bloated" they don't mean that exhaustively written Electron apps could never" be performant, they mean that apps that use Electron tend to be slow and bloated. The way to change that reputation is not to argue that Electron could* be fast if people held it right, but to make it easier and more natural for Electron apps to be faster than they currently are.
