I had exactly the same case. I had a non cancellable room booked for an event and a week or two before the event it was cancelled and booking tried to claim they were not an agent, they were not part of the contract, that they cared very deeply. Customer support in English cost 1€ per minute and they kept putting me on hold. Eventually I just went to Facebook and asked GPT to start incrementally generating more and more offensive posts direct at their social media account. It's much cheaper than their customer support line and it actually reaches someone who can do something.

""" Spec-Driven Development flips the script on traditional software development. For decades, code has been king — specifications were just scaffolding we built and discarded once the "real work" of coding began. Spec-Driven Development changes this: specifications become executable, directly generating working implementations rather than just guiding them. """
The takeaway is that instead of vibecoding you write specs and you get the LLM to align the generated code to the specs.

But if it is plugged into my car the same request will elicit an
"I'm sorry please talk to your system administrator to get this feature enabled"
This has gone on for years with google assistant and workspace accounts. There is always some random interlock in some byzantine permissions table that get's triggered at the most inconvenient moment and you can't do what yesterday you could do.
Is this something people are doing?
> A new study has found that US dog owners who harbor mistrust in the safety and efficacy of childhood and adult vaccines are also more likely to hold negative views about vaccinating their four-legged friends.
They didn't claim that 37% are not vaccinating due to mistrust. They claimed that people hold negative views about vaccines with regards to pets. It was a study about beliefs not about actions.
The abstract states clearly.
> Canine vaccine hesitancy (CVH) can be thought about as dog owners’ skepticism about the safety and efficacy of administering routine vaccinations to their dogs. CVH is problematic not only because it may inspire vaccine refusal
It is certainly important for public policy to understand the trajectory of anti-scientific thinking in the community ( not withstanding that this thinking is now running the USA ) If today a large percentage of people are expressing vaccine hesitancy then next week maybe they stop vaccinating. This is a worthwhile attempt to understand what is going on. Calling it bogus is just wrong. They are also aware of their own limitations.
> Limitations & discussion. We view this work as an important first step in understanding canine vaccine hesitancy and its public health consequences. We recognize, of course, that some measures employed in this study are imperfect. For example, our measure of canine rabies vaccine uptake is self-reported, and therefore may be subject to inaccurate and/or biased recall. Correspondingly, we see future efforts to clinically validate self-reported vaccine uptake measures (as is often done with human vaccines; see [2] as an
But you just did a drive by "It's bogus" without even trying to understand the context.
> As Table 3 demonstrates, a large minority of dog owners consider vaccines administered to dogs to be unsafe (37%),
That is not the same thing as 84% having their pets fully vaccinated for Rabies which you know. As is obvious a person can have their dog be vaccinated but still have been hesitant about it due to feeling it is unsafe.
You have discounted the fact that it is, in many states, a civil offence not to vaccinate your dog.

Thus a person may, wishing not to be fined, vaccinate their dog but still hold anti vaccination beliefs.
""" About 37 percent of dog owners also believe that canine vaccination could cause their dogs to develop autism, even though there is no scientific data that validates this risk for animals or humans. """

Multimodal LLMs take it even further. I've given Claude 4 a screenshot and simply said, “There’s too much white space.” It correctly identified the issue and generated CSS fixes. That kind of feedback loop could easily become a regression test for visual/UI consistency.
This isn’t just about automating code generation—it’s about augmenting the entire development cycle, from specs to testing to visual QA.

Foo(10, 20)
In your code gets rendered in the IDE as
Foo(X=10, Y=20)
Which solves a subset of the problems named parameters solves, namely the readability of the code.
