How I built a Slack bot to help me find an apartme...
I feel like all these newfangled slack/whatever bots fall into two categories: stuff that used to be or would otherwise be a (toy) IRC bot, and what basically amount to annoying phone support menus, in text form. Not impressed.

Hammers are that impressive when you already have a rock that can do the job just as well.
Yet people still prefer hammers over rocks..

All this proves is that people still prefer to reduce support costs at the expense of consumers.
