Is that really a moat though or something like a firehose of gasoline?

Even if you did write it all, unless you are regularly in all of it (which sounds like a horrible job to me), or it is rather small, in my experience you will be at some point trying to git blame some section of code you don’t understand on

Can I ask, and this is not judgement but anthropological curiosity, did you recently decide (or were you recently forced) to leave tech? I interview people about this kind of thing and have noticed a trend.

Which is not different in kind from “we use your source code to improve our products” and is functionally identical to “we own your output because you use our editor.” How do people continually fall for this. Refusing to look at the playboo

My point is that in established cultures there are expectations around how these situations are handled, and what you expect people to do is specific to the culture. A single disapproving grandmother can put a stop to it. That is why it bre

I think that is the case if the majority has or exercises little to no effective social power to enforce the norm. The majority consensus is to desire a peaceful environment but do nothing when it is violated.

It is a chicken and egg problem. As long as the majority of people who would maintain the social environment are avoiding the social environment, the healthy consensus/operating regime can never emerge.

Well “I badgered claude code for a month and got something that seems to work but I don’t remember how or why” doesn’t make for very compelling reading. We are seeing the rift between actual hacking and vibe-building opening in real time. P

But reproducibility should be the point. As a result of the structure it approaches an asymptote from one side or the other. I took it once and approached from green and my greenness was 77%, a second time it approached from blue and my blu

How does it follow that companies that are months apart will trip the singularity and this will prevent the others from doing so? Who supplies the hardware for the singularity?

This depends on a fantasy cascade of functional consequences of AGI, whatever that acronym even means anymore. It is just cargo cult financing at this point.
