> There never was a cohesive generic open source community. There are no meaningful group norms. This was and always will be a fiction.

It's always been a bit splintered, but it was generally composed of 95%+ of people that know how to program. That is no longer the case in any sense.

> I’m tempted to just start putting co-authored-by: Claude in every commit I make, even the ones that I write by hand, just to intentionally alienate people like you.

I mean it sounds like you are already using claude for everything so this is probably a bit of a noop lol.

> But if you can’t rephrase your criticism of a patch in terms of things flagged by tools like those, and you’re not claiming there’s something architecturally wrong with the way it was designed, you don’t have a criticism at all. You’re just whining.

No, because doing that requires MORE rigor and work than what an LLM driven project had put into it. That difference in effort/work is not tenable, its shallow work being shown, its shallow criticisms thrown at it.

All sense of depth and integrity is gone and killed.

Is that what this was all about? Depth and integrity? Rigor and hard work? Because I thought it was all about writing useful programs for computers.
