  • Nothing at all.

    We’re entering a low trust era. I suspect there’s going to be less sharing and collaboration. Between dealing with entitlement, harassment of devs, slop code PRs etc…what incentive do FOSS devs have to share anything? Near zero.

    We’re going to see siloing on one end and people using AI on the other to make their own shit for themselves. Everything else in the middle will be a no man’s land.

    Big tech was already hoarding, FOSS was already under pressure from VC-backed “open core” bait-and-switch models, and maintainer burnout was already a crisis. Now we get to deal with the FuckAI crowd asking “papers please” every 5 mins too?

    Thanks, but no thanks. I’ll make for me and mine or if I’m getting paid. No good deed goes unpunished.


  • More like market driven perverse incentives.

    Ethics is the study of oughts. That’s why the frame of reference matters. Law is the floor. Nobody said legal = acceptable. I said the copyright destruction mechanism is worth understanding before using it as a rhetorical grenade.

    So no, you didn’t “gotcha”. You just wanted to try for a cheap shot / try to put words in my mouth so you could knock down a strawman for the cheap seats.

    Some might consider that unethical, big man.





  • No, not at all. There’s some really good shit written in Rust. Didn’t someone just re-write Minecraft in Rust?

    “Written in Rust” as a slop indicator is like an AI scanner flagging a repo as AI-coded. Poor heuristic, infinite false positives. Which circles back to: if professional devs can’t tell the difference between AI-written and human-written Rust, the FuckAI crowd needs to rethink what “slop” actually means.

    Or we need to admit that Rust is just…fucked :)
