re: bsky38.com and everything. I had a bit of sleep on it (4hrs) I'm trying my best not to take a lot of it personally, and I do not fault or hold ill content for anyone who doesn't want to use bsky38 or is talking about it in anger w/ AI. The world sucks and a lot of that is thanks to AI usage.

Joyless scolds aren’t new. They dont have a point. They will always show up when somebody is having fun so they can take that away. It’s a weird antisocial behavior and we shouldn’t give them the w

People who aren’t using AI to code at this point are delusional or lying, trying to ride a horse down the highway and backing up the traffic instead of asking “what can we do to make cars safer and electric.” They have no ethical high ground

the maintainers of two very popular image libraries used by this very service's CDN recently went from a permissive AI code policy to one disallowing it entirely, citing increased review load, legal issues, and added development costs

Open source is a wholly different situation. Any kind of open submission system is inundated with generated content now

I've been toying with the idea of a "PRs to specs" only policy. That improves the clarity of the contributions, and gives the maintainers the ability to produce and test the update themselves

This of course relies on a heavily spec-driven codebase, which does seem to work

Using spec driven stuff works very well yes. It has spec driven design systems in crosslink for example. Like it has its own spec templates.

(Specs being defined how? Custom md/yaml/json or sth more standardized, maybe even executable?)

(my personal hobby horse: we should have been doing this the whole time ANYWAY)
