How to use it without ruining your week
Ask a real question, one you would actually act on. Read the verdict before you argue with it. If your first reaction is “that's not right”, you have just discovered your answer — the Oracle only exists to make you say it out loud. And if the verdict is “no”, that is permission, not a punishment.
