Amazing job! The live editor capabilities are really well-thought. I've inspected the code briefly [1] and it seems that there is a fairly sophisticated domain specific parser which handles live updates, history tracking and WebAssembl

Don't kill the messenger. I didn't say we shouldn't try. I'm saying that this will be a whack-a-mole problem and banning one mainstream service won't solve it.

There is one class of languages missing in the comparison: Programming golf languages: E.g. Japt [1], Pyth [2] or Jelly [3]. Update: I noticed that the author mentions that "APL's famous terseness isn't a plus for LLMs."

EMWM is really nice. Too bad that Wyaland will make alternative WMs like this one very hard to use and obsolete in the long run.
