That’s fine. Unfortunately people are using it to coordinate open source software development. I don’t know how people do it. You have to use the search box and scroll through hundreds of chat messages to find some code you need. It doesn’t show up on google. It’s just horrible.
The trick is convincing people that a literal body function is shameful and some kind of sin.
I think, therefore I am. If they don’t think, I’m not so sure.
AI gets increasingly easy and more capable, so there’s really no reason to adopt AI early in case you miss out. AI never allows anyone to miss out, the end goal is quite literally to be used by babies and animals. Any preparation you do today, is preparation you don’t need to do in the near future as AI strives to take over everything.
Feel free to set AI aside and work on yourself. You won’t miss out. AI won’t let you miss out.
If you want to get a programming job, you want a good looking CV. By contributing to prominent open source projects on github, github’s popularity and fancy profile system makes it look real good on a CV.
Github is a magnet for lazy vibe coders spamming their shit everywhere to farm their CVs. On other git hosts without such a fancy profile systems, there’s less on an incentive to do so. Slop to good code ratio should be lower and more managable.
