- Most open source projects on the Internet are on Github. One could argue Github itself has taken a significant role in the growth of OSS in the last decade
- Using Discord is totally du jour for open source communities in 2025
- Reddit is still the biggest discussion forum on the Internet. Including discussion about open source
The same idea applies to self-driving cars though, no? That is an industry where the "AI revolution" will enrich only the existing incumbents, and there is a huge bar to entry.
Self-driving cars are not going to create generational wealth through invention like microprocessors did.
Great post. I'm fairly new to the AI pair programming thing (I've been using Aider), but with 20 years of coding behind me I can see where things are going. You're dead right in the conclusion about now being the time to adopt this stuff as part of your flow -- if you haven't already.
And regarding the HN post getting buried for a while there...[1] Somewhat ironic that an article about using AI to help write code would get canned for using an AI to help write it :D
I've been using tailscale/tailscale-caddy[1] successfully to serve applications only on my tailnet. It says highly experimental, but it's worked just fine for me.
Currently there's only 9 cities supported worldwide, and of those 2 are in beta. If this software had broader reach, it may be easier to get open source support.
Having said that, I'd add my city if it were straightforward. It looks like you've spent a lot of engineering time in library and SDK support lately - I suggest investing in the DX happy path to encourage new folks to invest their time.
Played through with my 7yo daughter. She loved the game, but would freak out when chased by the "rats". It was a good opportunity to show her how to try to keep playing when you're stressed! She found it exciting after a couple of goes. You didn't mention how old your daughter is, but that is surely the key factor.
I'm still hopeful for a "Stray 2" - or whatever they can do now the devs lost the IP. My daughter cried when at the game's ending (no spoiler)
