I realise I’m being slow here, but… can anyone help me to understand whether Rails 8.1’s structured event reporting has any relationship to making the default logs (requests etc) structured, or are the two concerns completely orthogonal?

You can use Rails.event.notify to report “business events”, but do you still — and will you always — need a gem like lograge or rails_semantic_logger if you want the default logs to be easily parseable? I’m confused about what the big picture is supposed to be.

Leo pointed out that C++20’s std::chrono overloads the `/` operator to provide date creation syntax. Surely Ruby can do better?

```
>> module ISO8601
Month = Data.define(:y, :m) { def -(d) = Date.new(y, m, d) }
refine(Integer) { def -(m) = Month.new(self, m) }
end

>> using ISO8601
>> 2025-12-29
=> #<Date: 2025-12-29 ((2461039j,0s,0n),+0s,2299161j)>
```
