Why aren’t people moving away from Github? There’s Codeberg, Gitlab, and radicle. What’s holding them back?

    So kind of like a personalised learning assistant? I realise it’s different but this inverted instruct approach puts me in mind of Doctorow’s reverse centaur!

    Don’t you find that the links you get are hallucinated though? Even if they’re not now you can imagine this collapsing into slop echoes…

    I’ve tended to ask for examples to help me bootstrap new projects. A bit like getting customised docs. I certainly haven’t had enough success with generated code to think about automatically adopting it.

      I think when you know the possibility of hallucination, you become more vigilant; I think the key point is to not use it as a exclusive source but as an extension.
