I was mean to my code long before AI was around, just saying I'm not going to stop because some K-head is high enough to think his spreadsheet is having an experience go read a book about computers while you're not tripping, Elon, you dope

If you'd like to contribute to an oss project, don't focus on creating PRs. Help the maintainers triage issues and review existing PRs. Test beta releases, and give feedback about new APIs and features. Join the community and be around to help others. They need your care way more than your code now.

this approach is a bad trend ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ‘Ž how are contributors supposed to know whether you even looked at a PR when every PR gets closed without comment there is no signal just close the PR with no comment - it signals you looked and you closed it it's how GitHub works and it works! this doesn't.

We are updating our AI Policy to reduce maintenance stress. All pull requests are now automatically closed, unless they are created by maintainers or users from an approved list of contributors. The PR is not lost. If the team decides the change is worth pursuing, we will reopen it.

a 5090 has more than doubled in price in a year you can buy 8 PS5s for the price of one 5090 ๐Ÿคฃ why are they still making these? no one is actually buying them at these absurd prices, are they?

I occasionally click on an ad for a 5090, just to enjoy loudly breaking out in laughter when I see the price ๐Ÿ˜‚ just for fun, I clicked an ad for a 4060 Ti and it's almost 50% more than when I bought it a few years ago ๐Ÿคฃ can't imagine I'll ever buy another GPU not even remotely worth that money

I'm testing DeepSeek 4.1 Flash the reasoning output is hilarious "let me write. okay, let's write. I'm going to write. now let's write. let's write the changes. let me write now." it interrupts itself dozens of times before actually writing - it eventually gets to work, but it's pretty funny ๐Ÿ˜†

One thing I have learned talking to lots of people about AI is that they can be both worried about the implications of AI and very excited about using AI themselves. I think people on this site tend to view many people's attitudes to AI as much less complicated than they are.

so do I understand correctly ai.engineer/paris/2026 this is a conference that starts at 4 pm and expects people to stay up all night? very on brand for vibe coding culture I guess 720 euros for an afternoon? huh? how do you even cram talks + workshops + a party into that time frame?? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I really don't like Claude Code I tell it "make this change and let me check it before you spend time on tests and validation" it goes "nah let me try this other change" and then proceeds to spend 10 minutes on tests and validation doesn't do what you say, even when you ask directly that's a bug

Opus 5 isn't slow, it's actually very fast only, you're not allowed to see what it's thinking - it's encrypted over the wire. what you can see (in agents that display thinking) is actually a summary it writes *between* the thinking blocks tbh it's kind of weird, paying for tokens you can't have ๐Ÿค”

did people say "load-bearing" before Claude? I can't recall anybody using that term about things like buildings or bridges obviously, but not in software, right? I hear it everywhere now and it's just a bit uncanny? somehow ๐Ÿค”

๐Ÿ† achievement unlocked: banned from X ๐Ÿ™Œ for "inauthentic behavior", no less I think they've got that backwards - I was definitely being very authentic ๐Ÿ˜‡ what an absolute shit platform! if that is the end of my X account, then so be it, I can't say I'll miss that cesspool ๐Ÿ˜„

"AI ALL THE THINGS" isn't principled - but rejection isn't either. You can't 10x your attention - you divide that by 10. Not all code deserves your full attention, so offload the low-stakes work: save your focus for what's important. It is just a tool.

if you have to be clever: a simple light/dark lightbulb toggle, and it saves your setting only if != system, or deletes it if == system (so your preference is saved only if your preference is different from your system preference) but probably just don't be clever ๐Ÿ˜Š

I opened X for some reason lol the current experience is something like scroll, block, scroll, scroll, block, scroll, block, omg block, block, close this isn't social media anymore - there is nothing social about it it's a monument to human stupidity on the internet ๐Ÿชฆ๐Ÿฅ€

tfw you spent a day making a meaningful contribution to an open source project, no one replies for two weeks, and then the author deletes his entire GitHub account ๐Ÿฅฒ

it's amazing how companies manage to make development work anything between awesome fun, and unbearable mindnumbing bullshit I've been at both ends (and I'm thankfully at the good end now) I honestly don't think the ones who are really successful are also the ones who make the work unbearable? ๐Ÿค”

have you ever needed to contribute to a repo that is clearly 100% vibe coded slop? after about two hours, you give up and let your agent produce more slop to shoehorn in the change, right? it's not like the owner is going to notice or care "machine-only codebases" open source is getting weird ๐Ÿ˜ณ

having a bot auto-close issues without comment is the strongest signal you can send that you're not serious about software development, at all. makes your backlog look good at first glance tho. ๐Ÿฅฒ
