@n0toose @senficon@ohai.social @senficon@chaos.social for example, of you want to download a file or query an API in a portable way on a "Standard-Compliant" Linux distro, you'd basically only have curl & wget available.
APIs and ABIs do normalize and restrict how a program can be integrated.
And System Architectures do further restrict this.

Basically unless you write absurdly generic pseudocode and go out of your way to specifically avoid documentation samples, you'll inevitably have to copy huge amounts per design.
Because that's how these statistics-based chatbots work.
They are just a shittier interface for okay search engines like #DuckDuckGo and nothing that we should call "intelligent"...
