> human engineers now spend the majority of their time planning, reviewing, and orchestrating tasks This feel like much too broad a statement to be true.

I wonder how demographics (specifically age) tie into this. I'm well into my 30s and I found that statement absurd, but perhaps it is basically universally true among recent grads.

Maybe it is -- the next few years are going to get really rough for them; they'll develop no skills outside of AI.

Thanks, really appreciate the heads up. I put devs who do this on a personal black list for life. I think also that this would be better as an mcp tool / resource. Let the model operate and query it as needed.

It's the email/username harvesting that you mean right? Or do people also have something against anonymised product analytics?

I have something against opt-out analytics over TCP/IP or UDP/IP period, because they aren't anonymized, they include an IP address by virtue of the protocol.

But I definitely only posted that original complaint of the email/username (not the person you responded to initially).

could you point me to what jurisdictions require analytics opt in esp for open source devtools? thats not actually something ive seen as a legal requirement, more a community preference. eg ok we all know about EU website cookie banners, but i am more ignorant about devtools/clis sending back telemetry. any actual laws cited here would update me significatnly

I mean, you've labelled one big one already with the GDPR covering a significant fraction of the world - and unlike your average analytics "username and email address" sounds unquestionably identifying/personal information. Where I live I think this would violate PIPEDA, the Canadian privacy law that covers all business that do business in any Canadian province/territory other than BC/Alberta/Quebec (which all have s…

A random group of people uploaded free software source code and said 'hey world, try this out'. I wish the GDPR and the PIPEDA the best of luck in keeping people from doing that. (Not to actually defend the telemetry, tbh that's kinda sleezy imo.)

I mean, those are merely the two countries privacy laws I'm most familiar with. The general principal of "no you can't just steal peoples personal information" is not something unique to the ~550 million people the laws I cited cover.

And the laws don't prevent you from uploading "random" software and saying "try this". They prevent you from uploading spyware and saying "try this". Edit: Nor does the Canadian one cover any random group of people, it covers commercial entities, which Bloop AI appears to be.

Why does this need GitHub auth? This asks for unlimited private access to ones repo. This is a hard NO from me.

It can open GitHub PRs from the interface and there's tons more info we want to pull in like the result of CI checks

I did this locally to try it out :) Also stubbed out the telemetry and added jj support. "Personalizing" software like this is definitely one of LLMs superpowers.

I'm not particularly inclined to publish it because I don't want to associate myself with a project harvesting emails like this.

I'm not sure if Kanban is the right UI for what this is supposed to be for, just a gut feeling. Curious what other UI is more appropriate for this.

Kanban seems like a good starting place, but I broadly agree that the interface for humanagent collaboration will need to be different from the default interface we have today with legacy PM tools.

Things move across the board so quickly when AI is doing the work that ~50% of the columns seem pretty redundant.

yes, i was just doing/thinking the same, it was an interesting experience to sculpt a somewhat complex codebase to my needs in minutes.

Use a telemetry backed tool to remove telemetry from another telemetry backed tool?
