thinking about how there's a true solution to the trolley problem and union workers were the ones to point it out

I mean, I'm sure they would turn you away if you tried to just show up, but like… would someone notice? would it error during transaction?

just stepped ankle-deep into someone's edge case there

I wonder what happens if you buy a ticket for a listed private event (it does seem to let you do this)

Another bug: looks like Alamo lists private events in their JSON API, so I'll have to put in a special rejection filter for those

yep, I figured it out, I was discarding shows that had already appeared on other days rather than just consolidating repeated showings of the same movie on the same day

easy enough fix, change the 'seen' key to a tuple of
(date, film_id) instead of just film_id

yet another example of this calendar doing EXACTLY what I want it to do:

cool, there's a showing of ASHES OF TIME on Sunday. CHUNGKING EXPRESS is the only work of Wong Kar-wai that I've seen (it's also showing, on Saturday) but I would love to experience more of his work
and scratch the martials-arts movie itch
