Using a 2nd hand Pixel 8 I got for 180 EUR running GrapheneOS, daily driving it since I received it.

IMHO what it shows isn’t what the author tries to show, namely that there is an overwhelming swarm of bits, but rather that those bots are just not good enough even for a bot enthusiast. They are literally making money from that “all-in-one AI workspace. Chat - MCP - Gateway” and yet they want to “let me prioritize PRs raised by humans” … but why? Why do that in the first place? If bots/LLMs/agents/GenAI genuinely worked they would not care if it was made or not by humans, it would just be quality submission to share.

Also IMHO this is showing another problem that most AI enthusiasts are into : not having a proper API.

This repository is actually NOT a code repository. It’s a collaborative list. It’s not code for software. It’s basically a spreadsheet one can read and, after review, append on. They are hijacking Github because it’s popular but this is NOT a normal use case.

So… yes it’s quite interesting to know but IMHO it shows more shortcomings rather than what the title claims.

So… I might be neurospicy or retarded or both or either… but IMHO it’s perfectly rational to sort. It means you get access to the sum or individual pieces way WAY faster than otherwise. What’s arguably less rational though is if you can’t help yourself, even in a life or death situation, and have to sort coins instead of doing CPR. Then it’s not normal.

Ragebait marketing.

FWIW I remember a former colleague who recommended it to me and his argument was about the cryptocurrency you “earn” from it.

I asked him if he could withdraw it. I asked him if he tried. He said not yet but he would. He came back to me few days later saying something along the line that “it’s not straightforward” which was a polite way to say he didn’t manage yet. He worked in IT.

To be clear I’m not saying it’s a scam or that one can’t use the crypto “earned” from it but at least back then, few years ago, some people were just riding on the hope, or even faith, that it would amount to something yet it seemed made in such a way to just hold.

So… not a scam but not exactly empowering users IMHO.

If it doesn’t ignore artistic intent (good luck with that) I’m fine with it.

Sounds like “It it were to work as expected it’d be amazing” i.e every single entrepreneur out there, backed by VCs who know it’s impossible but don’t mind cashing out of the delusion. Bubbles are propped by this kind of sentiments.

I eat food, and the food I eat doesn’t just walk to my place.

So… sure I’d rather have a lot less energy spent on agriculture and industry but if there is one place where I feel energy use is legitimate, it’s feeding us.

I’m not saying it’s a good strategy, just that since SoftBank it’s basically core to the VC default playbook.

I believe it’s been tweaked, thanks to Musk, Enron and banks to subsidies transitioning to too big to fail.

So, it might not work, ever, but I still think if you look at the large VC rounds, that’s what they are funding, to be so big nobody can reach you at any cost.

That’s precisely not engaging though.
