Musk is one of the last people I'd trust to centralise all my code with.

#302My assumption is x.ai will be training on any code hosted here
What do you think github copilot is trained on?

#303So first they steal the source code in bulk, and now they are like fuck it, just send us your source code? Musk does indeed play 1d checkers.

I feel like this misses the value of something like Github or Origin entirely though. There's nothing terribly difficult about hosting a git server. The UX and pull requests capabilities are a little involved, but there are alternatives today. What makes Github special is the ecosystem and integrations. Sentry, Linear, and so many other tools have special UX around Github. You need centralization (or at the very leas…
It sucks to see Github's fall from grace, but I just can't bring myself to use a service like this under the custody of SpaceX. Agreed. It's like going from bad to worse. Not to mention, Origin doesn't even support actions. They are doing the easiest part of git hosting and no mention of anything that actually makes Github what it is. What Origin is offering is literally a weekend project, and anything having to do w…

#305Instead of creating one more centralized alternative, it's best to invest all effort into a decentralized solution, like Radicle[1][2] or federated Forgejo[3][4].

Decentralized solutions invariably appeal to a narrow sliver of nerds but never gain popular acceptance.

#306Has GitHub made it harder for them to scrape to train on?
Re: Cursor launches Origin, GitHub alternative
#307Seems like a boring bet. The Github way of working is from the anthropocene era. We need new primitives for agents invokved in tech solutions. Pull requests? Issues? CI? They all seem like they'll go away. Cursor should be leading the new things that replace them.

I think Source Hut has 0 ai features. Or time to start self hosting.
