You don't see a financial opportunity in delivering tools to dramatically speed up the creation of emails, reports, presentations, boilerplate graphics, etc?
Tell me you've never held a corporate job without telling me you've never held a corporate job.
There are people who literally live in Word and Excel every day. For them these tools could be life changing.
And that's just one obvious userbase.
Ah yes, we've reached the derogatory insult part of the discussion.
That's the part where I bow out. 🖕
Looks like you were in search of an exit and you found it. You're whole argument seemed to consist of "no" which would be responded to with more explanation to support their assertion, which you'd again respond "no" to. How many goes round did you think it would last?
Seriously though, if that was an insult/derogatory, i don't know how long you're gonna last here or anywhere on the Internet, tbh.
Ah yes it's always my favorite thing to be insulted on the internet.
I've lasted about 20 years so far. Mostly by refusing to engage with people who resort to personal insults when they run out of explanations.
More like refusing to engage while repeating the same sentence until people tell you to fuck off, if my experience with you is anything to judge by.
The block dodging and harassment is SUPER mature of you.
Block dodging? Is that your way of saying it's my fault you didn't block me?
