Uh... So no gift. Got it.

Just tell him respectfully, sometime.

As a parent, myself:

• I totally don't mind if my kids tell me they can hear me. I appreciate knowing our communication lines are open.
• I am still going to continue having (probably still loud) sex in the house. Unless my kids fully paying a roommate's share of the costs to run the home, they're still kids, not roommates.
• I'll probably buy the kid some nice noise suppressing audio headset as a shopping surprise, sometime soon.

That sounds entirely reasonable.

The answer is 2.

Cling to known humans who write their own code.

Snake oil salesmen always encourage the public to bet against the experts, with predictable results.

Someday ethically sourced AI can be used responsibly by trustworthy coders.

But the key is choosing to collaborate with trustworthy coders.

Protect the Dolls, for those unfamiliar. Neat.

There's been some great ideas here, but I like yours the best.

Bill Burr complaining about being forced to be the pope would be amazing.

"I'm not going to lead mass. Leading mass is Charlie Work!"

Huh. Pope Joan?

Does anyone have any clue?

My best guess would be some relatively passive notification stealing focus.

As reddeadhead mentioned, there's specific "don't steal focus" settings. I've had good luck with them.

Great analogy.

I think it's fair to tweak it and leave that second library with full accountability for the lack of desirability.

Domain names don't start out undesirable, they build their reputation from the content and users.

So it's like building a second library in a perfectly nice spot, and having that library attract people who dump pollution into the surrounding area, making it undesirable.

I don't know enough about it to confidently say they're going to lose all their money

It happened to my relative. They didn't lose everything, but they lost enough that they're shopping for a mobile home for retirement, when they previously could have bought a small house.

Plausible explanation.
