    That comparison is made on the project homepage: "Not a security mechanism. No mount isolation, no PID namespace, no credential separation. Linux documents it as not intended for s…

    Love this. I use raw CLI commands until it hurts, and have recently embraced tools like lazygit/lazydocker to get visibility into otherwise opaque system/tree states, and it’s been…

    Your comment about writing a text editor library is precisely what got me started with amp ~10 years ago, where much of its core functionality was extracted here: https://crates.io…

    > which are OSS-compliant where required This is the crux of the problem. Where Prusa is openly sharing, you have companies that are benefiting from that without reciprocating. Par…
