Who likes writing commit messages? In the abstract, perfectly spherical developer mindset, I'd spend hours writing the best commit message to go with the most elegant and perfect, beautiful code that I'm comitting, but the real world with meetings and life demands is greasier and grimer than that. Letting the LLM start off with the commit messages for me to edit with additional details has been a boon to productivity. Staring at an empty $EDITOR my brain goes blank, but with a framework of what's going on, I find the details for me to add flow more easily.
5.6 to 5.0 is a big enough of a jump to say yes. if it was 5.4 to 5.6 it would be a bit easier to say it only feels true because of that, but 5.6 is definitely better than 5.0. I don't have anything empirical to point at though, which is your point, but August 2025 for 5.0 vs July 2026 is almost a year later, and it's not just vibes that it's better, despite not having an objective metric to point at. It would be more scientifical to have numbers and shit to point at and there are some benchmarks out there, but you have to dig into them and really understand them in order to believe in exactly what they're testing, and I'm betting you haven't.
Because then it doesn't matter what you're running locally, as long as you've got a supported browser (Chrome, I'm guessing). It means it doesn't have to make a difference if you have a Window 10 desktop or a MacBook Air or a Chromebook. Go to the web page and look at this CAD.
I do, however, thanks to Taco Bell, have a lovely fauna of microbes in my toilet that, were they to be introduced to the water supply, would cause problems, and so do you. If someone was looking to fuck up the water supply, access to nuclear material isn't what's stopping them.
I think the reasoning is about having alt accounts for different purposes. He intention is to map one human to one account and have all of their thoughts from that one account, instead of one human having one account to discuss scraping on, and a different account to discuss crypto on.
> We attach basically zero value to writing a new program that hasn't existed before
We don't? People write new programs that go on to be successful software companies that make millions of dollars! Basic CRUD apps make money for their creators in their niche! There's so much money in software that it's taking over the world. The market is different, you're not getting worldwide household recognition for every little fart or sneeze of programming you output, but how can you say that we attach zero value to new programs when the history of computers is insanely valuable companies making new software and selling it. Windows, Oracle, mongoDB, etc.
