what a weird demand to make
The emojis are strange, yeah. Well something for V2 then.
I guess the visitor can be good depending on your language and use case. We do a lot of graph traversal and make use of it.
Visitor was more of a reference to: https://grugbrain.dev/#grug-on-visitor-pattern
I assumed the AI would outright tell me the pattern was not a good choice.
It's a good try. I noticed two things:
It likes to end responses like this: "Grug say, happy coding! [8 emojis]" It also told me the visitor pattern is a best practice.

Too many bugs. Too many features rushed out the door. Every major AND minor version of NextJs has new features and/or breaking changes, which is fine on its own but existing stuff often also break.
We go through a cycle of: new feature -> patch fix -> minor fix -> improvement -> finally works -> replaced by something else OR it broke again.
For something like NextJs that has been running for years maybe more focus on polishing the existing features would be a good start.
The Vercel way is to say "those aren't breaking changes, they're just bugs".

Wait, I'm confused by the terminology now: is DAI an "algorithmic overcollateralized stable coin", or is DAI not algorithmic at all?
No worries ... DeFi is a confusing space.
DAI is not algorithmic at all, but it is controlled by smart contracts. For $1.00 of DAI to be minted, a user has to post somewhere between $1.25-$1.50 of collateral. The act of creating DAI is literally that of taking out a loan. Over time, your debt to the system accrues interest. If your collateral falls under a certain price threshold, the issuer of DAI (MakerDAO), will seize your collateral to close your position. You keep the DAI, and MakerDAO liquidating you keeps the system above water and DAI at the dollar peg.
Algostables are not collateralized at all. They're more akin to ancient gold coins. Think of Luna as a small piece of gold. When UST is created, the Luna is "melted" to form the UST. At any point, the UST can then be "melted down" to get the Luna back out of it. From a certain point of view, UST literally is Luna.

The one I've seen mentioned most often is DAI.
DAI isn't an algostable. It's overcollateralized, so to mint $1.00 of DAI, you generally need $1.50 of crypto or centralized stablecoin.
