    Good luck, `hoplite` triggers a ton of Minecraft media for me and that name has been around 10 years.

    This gives me "why build dropbox" energy. We never know when a revelation or unmet customer niche arrives around the corner. Never bet against it.

    As someone intimately familiar with Python and not so much with "algebraic abstractions", I looked at your examples and can't figure out how they work (and why the abstraction is u…

    > the ruby code: ``` cat = Cat.new cat.meow ``` As a non-Ruby user, this confuses me. Why can't `Cat.new` be a function reference? Does Ruby explicitly disallow this (i.e. passing …

    I can't find the source for `mine`. Do you have a link?

    I agree. There's also a universe where he could've written it Linux Torvald-style and still come across as passionate but justified.

    To my dismay, a lot of projects with anti-AI sentiment are accepting security patches found with AI. Take a look at `ffmpeg` for example. The hypocrisy is puzzling.

    > mostly by humans `mostly` is doing a lot lifting here. The Go rewrite uses plenty of copilot. The reason you trust it is because you trust the people doing the rewrite.

    What happens to the money in these cases? I could imagine the official taking solace knowing the money he amassed over the years would eventually go his family.

    So... incompatibility for Windows Java devs using `gradlew`? Seems very niche to me.

    You know why. I know why. The people who care about this disproportionately collect distasteful media and would be in criminal proceedings if their material was uncovered.

    So... is this a dataset fishing operation essentially? You want to train or collect samples for better Lean proofs?

    Au contraire, Googlers have always been strangely academic brained and stuck in niche moral echo chambers. This is par for the course.

    Very cool. It's often daunting to contribute to such a well-established and recognizable project, but this is exactly how it should work.

    I think we’re going to find out the hard way that the proofs left to solve are very much not elegant.
