How about the truth that most communities are built around some kind of nonsense, and maybe you can deal with a bit of nonsense to enjoy the benefits of community?

If you're using cloud AI assistants, they're being heavily discounted to you by investors, for now. Those discounts won't exist forever.

I'd say the API can take up to half a minute to propagate, so API updates every minute is running up against their own performance. If you're a free customer, they may block you after a while, but first they'd have to notice you, and I doubt one update per minute would bother them.

I could imagine a team that needed it, but most professional programming work does not require this level of memorization, I'd have to see the job description to know which side to take in this argument.

I sympathize with this goal, but I'm not seeing what to do instead of screens for kids. I've been looking, hard. Suburbia makes this really hard. try getting three kids to sports with two working parents, and thats only half the time you're trying to fill. Try to get any kind of regular playtime with other families who are busier than you. We kid ourselves we're keeping them off of algorithms, but craft materials only take them so far, and the rest will be filled with TV and video games when we are stuck working.

I, actually run a 6 inch snorkel out from the basement with fine metal mesh clamped onto the intake. Reduces to 4 inch through the wall, then through a filter box, then through a 200cfm fan. You want 15cfm per person in the building to flush enough CO2. After the two filters, a 200 cfm fan will not be pulling what it’s rated for. You can either use a bathroom exhaust fan in reverse, or you can get quiet enough fans from “indoor gardening companies”. The dehumidifier is standard, nothing fancy.

If you're in a mostly humid area, like half of the US, It's better money to get a simple ventilation fan and dehumidifier. ERVs won't work half as well for 3-4x price.

I'm still not buying the claims made about ERV efficiency. As a passive device, they could only ever remove half of the excess moisture form the fresh air, and there's no way they're approaching that performance when the air passes through the diffuser in a quarter second.
