Sure is Lonely Around Here!

[J. Landman Gay]

Your experience parallels mine. Over the last year I've been exporting data 
for a few customers so they could import into other platforms. None of them 
could pay the monthly fee to continue with their current custom stacks. One 
client used Claude to write a custom web app and import his data. I was 
impressed, I watched him do it over a zoom call.

Like you, my life has changed and I'm technically retired. I do miss the 
old days though. We were an amazing and vibrant community.
