How is it impressive if we all know it's autogenerated? There's no more people there than there were before. Heck, at ~2x growth that's possibly a decrease in real humans there since bots generate loads of them per person
- airstrike 2mo agoIt's an impressively large quantity of X, not an impressively good X.
- Aachen 2mo agoThat's not how I read the statement "It's impressive for the service to have such growth at that scale" that this was a reply to. They do seem to think the growth is impressive, not the absolute quantity, about which I agree with you
- gamegod 2mo agoYeah, seems like AI slop is going to kill GitHub's free tier. I just don't see how the economics of having to host this much slop and provide service to slopcoders is going to convert into dollars for them otherwise. None of the humans involved are going to end up in big enterprises. It's all cost, with no pathway to revenue.
- seizethecheese 2mo ago> there's no more people there than there were before Seems false. Lots of coding adjacent people, engineering managers, etc. are now pushing PRs. > How is it impressive if we all know it's autogenerated? Nobody is saying the code is impressive, just the growth of github is impressive. It's not doing anythign different based on the source of the code.
