It’s exhausting and unsustainable if an entire generation are introduced to not knowing or caring about what they are doing.

in reply to Kevin Beaumont • • •I’ve seen well meaning contributors *champion* AI for the FOSS projects they work with… and for what? Most FOSS doesn’t *need* productivity. And it certainly doesn’t need huge black spots of code with no real owners because one person shovelled in more features than they could ever reasonably understand or support. 🫠
