So, I'm not anyone related to them, but considering you just kind of baldfaced admitted to it right there in your title, I'd get some lawyers on retainer.

I'm a litigation legal admin - I have been for 25-30 years. I instantly brought this up to an associate, telling them, "Maybe not now, but before you retire, this'll be the norm in the industry."

She had been complaining the day before about having to reconstruct a huge bunch of little 0.1 entries involving e-mails to various individuals in cases. If it could be done automatically, through a local LLM? chef's kiss

Trust me, law is definitely where you want to land this thing.

In all honesty, I have absolutely no negotiating power or decision-making authority for my firm, but it's a big one -- if that's a direction you want to go, can't guaranty I can swing enough weight, but I probably could find you the right people to talk to, give you an introduction.

I'll also have to add, though, that you'd have to figure out a way for it to be cross-platform or live outside just macOS. Unfortunately, that's a very uncommon choice in the legal world (or anywhere else).

You should sell this to Lawyers and other professionals who bill per hour to reconstruct their billables for the day without missing anything. They would pay big money for something that recovered forgotten(unbilled) work throughout the day.

Person A declines Group B's invite.

Group B thinks that it's a desire-based decision: that Person A does not want to participate.

They don't always realize - because for many, this simply doesn't "track" - that Person A may simply consider themselves unworthy.

This is something I think I am learning now, painfully late. I'm 51. I think I'm beginning to realize that I was a feral kitten for much of my life, claw-swiping at the milk syringe out of fear when people were trying to be nice to me.

Answer: You are a creature of the night, terrible, able to strike terror into a superstitious, cowardly lot.

This almost seems like a web-i-fied 'reminder' system - and I've found one-and-done memory-aid-type reminders to be the area least addressed in current systems.

Given the Gregorian Calendar and the planet's path through its orbit, August is just getting started.
