That's fair, but that workflow is amateurish at best anyway. You're free to do that, if that's how you work, or if it all gets squashed in the end regardless, but a more sustainable workflow is to make committing itself an ex

I think simply stating the extent of AI use openly is a good start. For example, this is what I've done on my hobby project[0]. I feel like an AI use disclosure page or document helps, especially when you didn't vibe-code but stil

This is the source of that information: https://metr.org/blog/2025-07-10-early-2025-ai-experienced-o... The updated METR study on this gives different results, but they should still be quite sobering.

Actually, all of them are fallible, very incompetent machines that are good at writing text. They're not people, they don't have any qualities of people except the really bad ones, and they are absolutely miserable at reasoning. T

No, because (and you're never going to believe this) there is regulation, laws, and it's being enforced.

Well it's not wrong, the solution isn't abstinence though, it's proper education, help for those who struggle with it, and making it legal and regulating it.

This is how you do it when you're not AS childish. You go "here's a model for cybersecurity" and put a price on it. I know they're releasing it to some vendors first, etc. but the lack of a clown spectacle is nice.

The language doesn't matter much if you have memory-hungry workloads. Whether it's Rust or C or C#, you can write quite memory efficient code in either.

Here's your reminder that 20-30 days paid vacation plus unlimited sick days (3+ days needs a doctor's note) is normal in Europe (e.g. Germany). If you get sick during vacation, you get those vacation days "refunded" back

This is not accurate. In Germany, you usually only have to get a doctor's note at 2 or 3 days, if youre only sick for a day or two you don't need one. And there's an unlimited number of sick days. As long as you have a doctor

Rewriting ffmpeg in Rust will not solve it. The parts that are memory unsafe in ffmpeg, and similar projects, are not unsafe because C or C++ is inherently unsafe. Instead, it's the CODE that is unsafe. Translating the code (data struc

It's a marketing stunt. If there's one thing we should have learned, it's that anthropic will do ANYTHING to get their product marketed as the biggest, most scary AI ever.

This is so unbelievably incompetent from all sides, it's really impressive. So I guess the real moat is whether the US govt is happy to make your models sound more capable than they are?

Absolutely. And I'm saying that the fix is to decide to write code. The AI isn't faster at producing good quality, well designed code that you'd write (if you're quite competent, which anyone can become with practice). T

Nice! That explains it to a degree. I would suggest taking someone who is really annoying about details, from your team, and having them just use the components as they are. Just click around and mess with them for a while -- in my experien

You can still write code by hand. Just do that, you will run into tasks that are too boring, those you can do with an LLM.

You pay per token, even on subscription models the limit is tokens. If I was valued at 1 trillion dollars, and I was in the hole enough to sink a couple small countries' GDP, maybe I would slowly start to optimize to maximize token usa

It is unmaintainable even if you spend 100k per month on tokens to have LLMs pretend they are maintaining it, if they slow down and make little ACTUAL progress. Sadly real progress is impossible to measure, if all you have is an overexcited

It's usually better to create an issue where you explain this, then the PR is just the change. But this is up to each maintainer to decide, I guess.

Remove the human element. Yes, someone spent time fixing a bug. If the fix doesn't look like it makes sense on its own, do not merge it. If the author tries to convince you that it's a good fix, it's an immediate no. A good f
