Since fable 5 went down just some time ago(although this is no longer the case), a lot of fable or Mythos related content including models and datasets were completely killed from HF, it seemed like such a blow to the local development community to lose such important files, this is what inspired me to work on my project, it's a p2p decentralized distribution network (aka a torrent site) that pulls files from HF and verifies them through sha256, I've been making slow and steady progress but so far I haven't made a single public post about it. I'm genuinely scared of a number of things happening, that the project won't gain traction, ridicule from more experienced developers, I'm also worried about security vulnerabilities which I'm sure I haven't fully patched yet...

How do I get over this fear of talking about my project? How do I gain stars on GitHub, and community engagement? After all, a decentralized distribution network is nothing without its peers...

What if I do have the chops to quality check and actually do treat Claude like a junior coder?

When you have an actual junior coder, they learn over time, including from their mistakes, until they're a senior coder that can do the same for others. When you're "treating Claude like a junior coder", you're just cleaning up after a mostly unchanging system. See also this article by a Zig contributor.

And having AI do annoying tasks (which you then need to double-check if correct anyway) you're missing out on the opportunity to get better at problem solving by skipping the part where you find a programmatic solution, even if it's a one-time thing. (Though when you work on an open source project, it's nice if others can verify how you got to your solution in the first place.)
