fair enough! the jump from that to ChatGPT’s launch (which I didn’t find that interesting), to gpt-4, to Claude Code/Codex CLI, to Gemini 3/Opus 4.5/GPT 5.2 has been insane in such a short time. I’m excited (since the release

and you can switch AI providers, or use local LLMs. again, a nonsense point to raise about how FOSS is developed. coding “by hand” also doesn’t go away. if you lose your proprietary tools (laptop, OS, IDE, or coding agent) you can always wo

this argument is nonsense…I write code on a macbook running macos. it’s not a subscription, but some people also pay a subscription for a proprietary IDE. so any FOSS written with proprietary paid software doesn’t count to you? only if it’s

- performance is often better, especially on “out of core” (“streaming”, spill to disk data sizes). Polars has done a ton of work on their streaming engine but they’re still catching up - you don’t need to use Python (but Pythonic wrappers

I think we agree then? the tech is useful; you need systems around them (like sandboxes and commit hooks that prevent leaking secrets) to use them effectively (along with learned skills) very little software (or hardware) used in production

I was pointing out one screenshot from twitter isn’t proof of anything just to be clear; it’s a silly way to make a point. yes AI makes leaking keys on GH more prevalent, but so what? it’s the same problem as before with roughly the same so

I’m not understanding your point… (and would be genuinely curious to)? the models and systems around them have evolved and gotten better (over the past few years for LLMs and decades for “AI” more broadly) oh I think I do get your point now

you could find tons of API keys on GitHub before these “agentic” tools too. that was my point, one screenshot from twitter vs one anecdote from me. I don’t think either proves the point, but posting a screenshot from twitter like it’s proof

I think you’re correct. the reproduction isn’t very precise and the solution doesn’t seem right (I’m not seeing anything about the non-standard pages not being freed). I’d guess this was ignored because it was wrong…
