This isn't okay - the author is selling their own alternative to Sentry, 'reusing' Sentry's open-source client SDK's, while spreading FUD about self-hosting Sentry.

I've been self-hosting Sentry for over 10 years: Sentry is installed by running `git clone`, editing one or two configuration files, and running ./install.sh. It requires 16GB RAM if you enable the full feature set. That includes automatically recording user sessions on web or mobile for replay, and support for end-to-end tracing (so seeing which database queries your api asks for in response to a button tap in your mobile app).

Sentry has a wonderful self-hosting team that's working hard to make Sentry's commercial feature set available, for free, to everyone that needs a mature error tracking solution. You can talk to them on discord and they listen and help.

I had to look up if he's ok, three decades later. It appears so: https://www.khoury.northeastern.edu/people/olin-shivers/ and https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/923911.

Wow, their example to "clean up the code" does a bit more than just refactoring to make code more readable, it appears to change the output.

One would have to check the resulting code carefully to see if the meaning is still as originally intended, or replaced with code that is more probable to be correct (but no longer working).

For instance, it replaces this:

  if dataset == 'animals':
    if dataset == 'turtle':
      x_train, y_train, x_test, y_test = datasets.load_turtles(with_bowtie=False)
    elif dataset = 'formal_turtle':
      x_train, y_train, x_test, y_test = datasets.load_turtles(with_bowtie=True)
  else:

with this:

  if dataset == 'turtle':
      x_train, y_train, x_test, y_test = datasets.load_turtles(with_bowtie=False)
  elif dataset == 'formal_turtle':
      x_train, y_train, x_test, y_test = datasets.load_turtles(with_bowtie=True)

The before-code responds to dataset='animals' with `load_turtles(...)` and to dataset='turtle' or 'formal_turtle' with an error; In the after-code this is reversed, although the apparent logic error and the assignment/equals sign error are resolved.

For those that want to try it, and have a rust development environment installed, the following runs Zed on Windows. (The editor part at least, I haven't tried the collaborative functions).

  git clone https://github.com/zed-industries/zed
  cargo run --release
