>Will they ever "sell out"? Oh no, never. Don't worry, the usual investors are very well known for fighting for user autonomy (AMD, Nvidia, Intel,IBM, Qualcomm) They are all very pro consumers and all backers are certainly

How can you be the man in the middle in a truly P2P environment?

They rather have yolo permissions to run arbitrary code on your machine and phone home all the time, then opencode having it and phoning home all the time.

yes, this. the reason i use wolf (firefox fork) is because i can easily disallow styles overriding, font overriding, and use bitmap fonts. nothing else. now that react devs finished destroying the web they have to impose their superior tast

It's not what I meant. GitHub style pull request is not part of the original design. What aspects and features you want to keep, and what exactly you say many others are interested in? We don't even know what a forge is. Let alon

What is a forge? What is a modern forge? What is a pull request? There is code or repository, there is a diff or patch. Everything else your labeling as pull request is unknown, not part of original design, debatable.

Magnus peak rating was on 2014. But he lost motivation afterwards, so that was not necessarily his peak, maybe he just yoloed a little after that. In his own words he's way past his peak. In recent interview he said his bullet no incr

llms cannot reason, they can retrieve answers to trivial problems (better than any other tool available) and generate a bunch of words. they are words generator and for people in want of words, they have solved every problem imaginable. the

There is nothing 4chan like on this. Not even the styling.

The lack of explanation of what it is and does is a tell of what gullible audience they are seeking. Tech marketing has become a lot like dating, no technical explanation and intellectual honesty, just word words words and unreasonable expe

Remember the other day when a bunch of yous were making fun of zig moving away from GitHub? Now suddenly you all say this is not the future you wanted. Everyday you opt in to get wrecked by Microsoft. You all do realize you all could, for a

Programmers for some reason love to be told what do to. First thing in the morning they look out for someone else to tell them how to do, how to test, how to validate. Why don't do it yourself, like you want to do it, when you could ju

Calm down buddy, maybe you're confusing code producers with something else. It's 2026 we don't bother with maintenance no more, we /new to keep context clean and start over. Just don't forget to comment - never del

Everybody offers a generous free tier. Verification? LoL, lmao even. Your vibes are low. If you're a professional code producer, you shit out code as fast as possible. Don't give anyone time to analyze the disgusting pile of shit

Yes. Every platform offers free tokens generously. That is a true statement. Might not be much, but is enough for you to produce some code and shit out a readme and then show on hacker news that your capable of pushing to git with the help

But it is true, the cost is effectively zero. There will be, for a long time, free models available and any one of them will give you code back, always! They never refuse. Worst case scenario the good models ask for clarification. The cost
