I've been reading Dan Wang's "Breakneck". It's a fascinating look at modern China, as well as a reflection on the current state of the US (definitely a secondary theme).
His past letters about China were also amazing and you can read them here: danwang.co

If you aren't offering an API or MCP interface for agents, you force users toward a browser solution like github.com/microsoft/pl... which is indistinguishable from real users.
Not good for the user, not good for your site.

Pro-tip. If ghosting is prevalent, one easy way to stand out is: don't ghost.
That doesn't mean you have to go to all the meetings. All it takes is a message and an apology.

Got up extra early to accommodate a call from someone in the Eastern timezone, and of course they did not call. I feel like ghosting is just endemic now, it really wasn't such a big thing when I was younger.
