    Because github does not offer the option to (and no, running github enterprise doesn't count).

    Not really a reasonable excuse considering this is completely broken for self hosted runners / paying customers (for a whole day).

    Can you share a source for this? it's not that I don't believe you but I've had difficulties finding one.

    Oh that is pretty gross, thanks for sharing. I was not aware of that process, that explains the cost they attempted to roll out for runners too a few months back.

    Wow this is really poor justification for its name, the folks at cloudflare really should not be overloading the term "Operating System" pointlessly like this.

    You need a "traditional" operating system to even run your LLM, or do you have your own custom collection of drivers you flash your machine with? :p

    Having an embedded scripting engine for large programs is nice for simplicity and keeping configuration modular - it would be messy to need to modify source constantly. It’s not an…

    I think you're missing the forest for the trees with this statement and it makes your comment seem a bit reductive. It's not so much a dismissal of writing on a particular product …

    That’s a fair approach, thanks for elaborating. I think the main point of contention is there is an expectation this software should be more reliable, that doesn’t take away from y…

    Still, you are barely more protected than someone running this as non root at home. By your same logic you could “confine” the agent to any arbitrary directory on your filesystem a…

    I disagree with this, Claude code does many malware like things and has its source obfuscation. Plan mode doesn’t even work.

    probably a much smaller dependency graph (lesser usage of transitive dependencies)

    The barrier to entry to generating code may be "I can think", but the barrier to entry for solving hard, distributed/multi-faceted engineering problems still remains quite high - a…

    Aforementioned security vulnerabilities don’t strike as a potential reason to you?

    The duplication is a necessity to achieve the isolation. Having shared devels and hordes of unit files for a multi tenant system is hell - versioning issues can and will break this…
