Yea, date time parsing is probably fine so is rolling your own auth, unicode, font rendering, compilers.

Datetime libs themselves? No thanks.

As someone who watched this unfold months ago on YouTube I'm slightly annoyed I had to read the whole article to find nothing new.

It's not that bad I typically get a lot done. Nobody can sign me up for meetings I need to participate in while I'm in standup.

I'm not convinced the widening access to American consumerism is a moral win. The amount of fossil fuels we're dependent on as a species is obscene. I worry for our children. There is no offramp, only growth.

That's purely because nobody knows how to write SQL let alone stored procedures. If stored procedures had better devex they'd be used for most of your app.

I never said you did?

You said one response up that they weren't parasites by asking how they were parasites and then proceeded to claim you have no experience with their parasitic services.

I'm just pointing out your anecdote wasn't valid.

So you're not using the parasite and that's your claim why it's not a parasite?

MCP is extremely limited and imo not at all interesting.

What would be interesting is an extension protocol that can modify context on the fly.
