- I'm thinking of Debian and how much effort it takes to maintain stability and security over time.
I can't imagine we'll really be able to trust AI without it's use in open source software where we can see how reliable it is.

- When people suggest to use AI for open-source projects, what exactly are they advocating for given that the median open-source project budget is pretty much $0/month? Maybe $1/month if the maintainer likes to have a website for the project.

- Coding agents are like asking a genie for code. They will give you the code you ask for alright but you never know what kind of curse has been crontabbed for you.

- gotta love a site that hijacks your back button and makes you hit it 3 times.
- TLDR: Greg Kroah-Hartman says that last month something magical happened and AI output is no longer "slop".
- > What happened? Kroah-Hartman shrugged: "We don't know. Nobody seems to know why. Either a lot more tools got a lot better, or people started going ..."
Odd sentiment. It's pretty clear the tools crossed a threshold last year (in April as I recall) where they became good enough to actually write entire applications, and just accelerated from there. Today they're amazing and no-one I know is writing artisanal code anymore (at least, not at work).
