lol I thought this thread (via @inthehands) was about ditching the AI-training Salesforce app for longer than I care to admit

before you npm/cargo install ask yourself:

will I be killing any number of birds with any number of stones, here? or more just, maiming this bird with a whole subtree of someone elses's turds?

the timeless way of building

@piggo ok, yeah that's basically the rationale I found online but seems like it's not a total showstopper, best of luck!

@piggo wait, is *this* off a Brother laser?! old internet lore said it wouldn't work well with those and so I never even bothered trying — that looks nice 🤩

@inthehands @xcorvis I don't quite get this though — if the software is "clunky and irritating" as you said elsewhere, isn't that in some ways *also* working against the org's needs?

like I get that there's distinction between learn-as-you-go interfaces (a bumper car, say) and requires-training-or-even-certification interfaces (like operating a high-rise crane) but if the interface for the latter is needlessly user-hostile just out of poor design I don't see that working in **anyone's** favor…!
