There was a lot of self-modification, going on, in those days. Old machine language stuff had very limited resources, so we often modified code, or reused code space.
Webmidi is godsent for Akai LPD8 controllers. It came with software that's used to reprogramming midi banks. Software never got updates and doesnt work anymore in any modern mac. Thank $deity for webmidi and some reverse engineering, i can reprogram it to a degree that its at least functional and dont need to throw it away.
Been running somewhat similar combo few months and toy'd around with taking the screenshots of the selectors axe-core/playwright reports as I didn't notice such feature in neither playwright or its html reporter. Do you happen to know if slack patched this or is this feature available somehow ?
And if you are willing to answer some other questions regarding axe-core itself, I might have few.
Screenshots of issues is something we support in many of our paid offerings, but not in axe-core itself. It sounds like the Slack folks implemented their own version of it.

Had somewhat similar scenario. Company's internal headhunters had reached out to me once already before and I did few interview rounds with them and said no. Year later they reached out to me again and had to go thru tech interview again.. during that I did help(sleep) on python repl and mentioned why; since I haven't used sleeps on my own code I wanted I make sure that if sleep will yield cpu time or not. Mood of the interview changed at that point and got rejected by not having enough skills in Python.
Another case; One of the interviewers was late to the meeting and started to shout profanities cuz my Audio Quality was poor. And it was - thanks Sony XM's but the way he acted on the call really gave lasting impression on their "company culture"
i recently failed a timed test because while it was asking a simple question about manipulating CSV data. i was unfamiliar with the CSV library because i simply never had to use CSV data before. so i had to look it up and that cost me to much time. on the other hand, another question in the same test was about variables in a function in a metaclass that were giving the wrong values because of a scope issue. i had enough experience to understand scope issues and was able to solve the problem easily.
the CSV question was easy to look up, and with time anyone could have solved it. failing it because it took to long was frustrating. the scope question would have been difficult to answer without experience, and even looking it up would not have been easy without knowing what to search for.
Maybe the genre list could be a bit more extended ? For example, consider "reggae". While one could think that dancehall is also reggae, its sort of rare that people who would enjoy rocksteady would be pleased to get something from dancehall just because the "top level genre" matches ?
There's Finnish company called Norsepower that makes these. Their page does mention that the idea also came up around the same time to Finnish inventor Sigurd Savonius who also held some patents around this area. Linked wiki entry didn't seem to mention him thought. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigurd_Johannes_Savonius
Ps. I don't know anything about the topic - just internet rabbit hole for me as I recently came to know that Norsepower's CMO is well known ex-musician in Finland and startup entrepreneur.
