i used wordpress for over a decade but left last year when the AI hype started ramping up and there were reports that even selecting the option to turn off post scraping doesn't work because the bots blocked by the site's robots.txt doesn't update.

basically: wordpress doesn't let you control AI scraping so is it still the best platform those of us worried about that are gonna be able to find?

yeah, they do. unfortunately a lot of people are stuck in situations not easily got out of... that's why they escape to their car...

from people I've talked to who do that (and me) it's usually to get away from other people before going inside somewhere. like the husband who chills in his car to avoid the wife, or the son who doesn't wanna go in to deal with the dad yet.

the car is a portable bubble, an escape, your own little contained environment in which you can exercise some form of control. a mini home away from home for some.

earliest memory is of the Nintendo 64, but it's a blur to me whether i played Crash Bandicoot, Goldeneye, Banjo Kazooie, or Mario Kart 64 first. Probably Mario Kart because we had the steering wheel attachment and that's irresistible to kids.

yeah I wouldn't use it for doing the whole thing, but have been using it here and there to help me figure out why I'm getting errors and how to solve them. As a newbie programmer it helps guide me back to the right path.

However... even that doesn't work all the time because it's still not smart enough to isolate issues coming from imports, plus some other minor hiccups.
