I agree. This is one thing that's gotten me about the new wave of poo-pooing projects made since coding agents have gotten big. Five years ago it was 'just build something!'. I understand the market is more saturated now so building something isn't as valuable as it used to be, but it still shouldn't be treated as a negative. I don't know anything about the creator's background, but even if this project is ultimately redundant and unnecessary, it's still pretty cool that they built something.

My speculation: "impossible" repairs work a lot better when you buy replacements parts for near-market price from a competitively priced seller next door, rather than having to order your parts online from one of a handful of distributors substantially upcharging even for the off-brand version.

The new users stopped reading the FAQs. They stopped lurking. They wanted things spoonfed to them, so the producers started spoonfeeding. The modern walled-garden system is the ultimate result of that. Is it the fault of those users? Not in any moral sense, it's reasonable to want a more structured presentation. Things change.

Same here in Virginia. This is exactly how I'd describe it. From what I understand, it's caused by the increasing energy in the Earth's climatic system leading the jet stream to bound further north and further south than typical, causing extremely warm tropical air to make it strangely far north in the summer (2021 Seattle heatwave) and for extremely cold arctic air to make it strangely far south in the winter (2022 DC it got down to subzero Fahrenheit, coldest I've felt in my life)
