Given what this person has gone through, if you want to be critical then I think you owe us a more detailed explanation what exactly would have worked better. Armchair parenting is very easy.

Out of all bugs and feature requests, this one is an outlier in that it requires specific hardware to work on and has an obvious success condition. This means that every man and his dog is not going to be throwing an LLM at this to see if t

One place bisect shines is when a flaky test snuck in due to some race condition but you can’t figure out what. If you have to run a test 100000 times to be convinced the bug isn’t present, this can be pretty slow. Bisecting makes it practi

Crates.io had a major phishing campaign just the other day, but no major hacks yet as far as I know. Is that because they do something special that NPM has failed to do? Or is it just that NPM is a big and juicy target?

In addition to what's already in the thread, I assume by now somebody has vibecoded an agent to scan GitHub for bounties and then automatically vibe up a corresponding solution. Will be a fun source of spam for anyone who wants to do t

My bank recently made it that app-based MFA must be used for every single web login. Unless I and many others are willing to swap banks in the vain hope that the new bank won't do the same thing (I am not), then we're cooked.
