Or improve ones usage of cron.

In the end you are dealing with unix. Take a whole bunch of small dumb things and combine them to do large (seemingly) smart things.

If "you" want a single monolithic smart thing i guess you can always inquire at MIT about how their skynet project is coming along.

I find myself reminded of a line i often hear, and sometimes use, when a task needs clarification: "do as i think, not as i say".
