GenAI My sibling feels like they have been experiencing a lot more errors with the Spotify app since uhh recent events.

This sort of thing is obviously anecdotal, and yet we all probably have had similar feelings with
GitHub or Vim or Google forms or something else.

Do please tell me if you've had this experience, maybe with Zulip recently, or if you know of an attempt to quantify it.

re: GenAI @liamoc they wrote a very funny post about how the spam used to be a problem, but now that they've fully embraced Claude it works really well for them. Their Claude.md is a case study, honestly.
with the investment we’ve made to set up our repositories for AI-assisted work, our engineers regularly produce PRs with Claude Code that are basically ready to be merged.

re: GenAI @ah oh no.

"Maintainers reviewing such AI-assisted work (myself included) have been finding the quality to be just as high as what our core team has historically produced without AI."

This is damning of their code quality before AI.

dreaded bots @ah @liamoc I can at most accept their usage in build scripts collections (like homebrew-core and homebrew-cask). Apart from build scripts collections, they are going to make everything worse and worse every day.

dreaded bots policy - build scripts collections @ah @liamoc I can see a reasonable policy proposal from nixpkgs. I cannot find a policy from homebrew-core/cask; instead I see CLAUDE.md and other files in homebrew-core repo. dreaded bots policy - build scripts collections github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/514587
