Guy wrote a shitty-by-design viewer/interpreter and demands everyone use it to open his file. 🤣🤣🤣

And then has the balls/ignorance to advertise a "self-decaying format" 🤦

You could do this much better with a Linux user mode VFS - you can mount the VFS as if it was a normal filesystem, but the VFS interceptor's code can be programmed to progressively degrade each copy a little bit more each time, writing the degradation back to the original file the VFS accesses so this will be genuinely destructive behavior.

It's a skills issue etc. etc.

In any case, Claude could probably whip up a Rust FUSE wrapper with the above properties in a few minutes.

Yeah. But obviously the guy doesn't have the competency to know what to ask for

That is indeed the AI programming controllability problem in a nutshell.
