I dunno about autonomous, but it is happening at least a bit from human pilots. I've got a fork of a popular DevOps tool that I doubt the maintainers would want to upstream, so I'm not making a PR. I wouldn't have bothered be

RatatuiRuby is pretty new still: its beta launch was Jan 20. Octobox's TUI is built on it [0], and Sidekiq is using it to build theirs [1]. I believe they'll be maintainable long-term, as they've got extensive tests and docum

I'd love to hear more about those inconsistencies. Would you be willing to share? I built RatatuiRuby recently, and I'm currently building Rooibos, its MVU framework to compete with BubbleTea. I'd love to avoid repeating Char
