Fingers crossed this late sequel parody somehow duplicates the original's charm. It would be embarrassing for Disney if it's better written/received than their own attempt with the source material.

This is the part where the narrator looks at the camera and says "Don't try this at home, kids!"

> They literally borrow money to buy these things. So if they can afford it,

Borrowing money would indicate they can't afford it. But I think you mean "afford the risk in order to achieve a societal norm".

same.

> and at no point have I ever considered disassembling them

That is wise. I don't claim disassembling it for move was a good idea, but it compressed my stuff into a compact car.

Consider also that some of their beds don't fit through a doorway built (esp if doorway is not code width) so some level of disassembly may be required for mere room-to-room moving.

I'm only calling out a tradeoff that may or may not apply. Not everyone is you and me.

> I don't think IKEA really even advertises their stuff to be a

The whole point of this thread (this site?) is repurposing outside of creator intent.

IKEA is ideal for a certain stage of your life. It's ideal for optimizing vertical space. It's largely function over form. It looks like middle school classroom furniture. And when junior writes on it w/ a sharpie ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

When you have the space for a separate dining room, agreed that used antiques are comparable in price.

I wouldn't touch their couches rich or poor though; they're painful.

I know what gp is saying. They want to stay credible to the general public without also bearing the over-polished and verbose hallmark of LLM.

However, after going back and forth with LLM on it just now, I feel like "1+N" is just a coding mistake, not a perplexing multi-faceted, engineering problem to be solved. Experience or a slow application would teach you to find a better way to get that info and then you move on.

"Only" here is incorrect. I posit every public company's primary concern is stock price. But certain behaviors and values align with driving that stock price up and for Amazon it's Customer Obsession. And they are not obsessed with it because they love you, it's because they love your repeat business. But that obsession means your happiness and their stock price are aligned, for now.

I pushed Purchase on Amazon one day and was opening the package 36 minutes later. I can barely drive down to a gas station, get a coke and come back in that time. But I wanted a particular, random item one morning and was setting it up within the hour without leaving my seat. Ebay and Walmart and Local shop can't do that.

I support leaving out of principle, that's laudable. But it won't be because they aren't good at delivering CX.

Table-based layout, font tags, map/area tags. Only thing missing is an unnecessarily imported jQuery.

I'm going to take "you" here to mean the author instead of myself b/c I already found the example distasteful for reasons similar to yours.

> But since you asked specifically about someone spelling it out letter by letter for you:

You took time to do this and I appreciate it. I like to think you're teaching others how to respond clearer. I hope we can see this level of organized thought and direct challenge at the top level instead of reactionary slang and huffing.

I see "it's obvious" "cringey" and allcaps being used. Being able to vocalize specific problems and having the courage to clearly state it is a life skill.

Please be specific about the problem and why. Bonus points for replacement suggestions.

The boys-fight-for-girl is a very typical movie trope and this is a scene-based product. Maybe that's why they defaulted to it.

1. ProductSpec sent to Factory with multiple Products being created, packed, shipped, distribution centers, last-mile, receiving

2. Client -> API -> Edge -> Business layer -> DataSource dataflow.

3. Compliance training scenario videos. Security training. "Joe needs to share internal code. He uploads it to pastebin and emails the link to the team. What should Joe do instead?"

4. Education, can this work for illustrative problem solving? Deriving quadratic formula by completing squares?

This could also use a FF or Rewind timeline or some kind of time control like "Play from Line 24".
