I like the idea of bringing back the BBS over SSH but
This codebase was largely built with AI assistance and is set up for that workflow.
Nah, I'll stick to IRC.
Who cares? If it is good and works, I don’t care who or what wrote the code.
Who cares?
The people who actually spent the time writing the code and documenting it, remember these LLM’s have to learn from somewhere.
A lot of repositories use the GPL license.
The GNU General Public Licenses are a series of widely used free software licenses. The GPL is a copyleft license, which means that it guarantees end users the freedom to run, study, share, or modify the software, but if you distribute a derivative work or modification, you must provide the source code to those recipients under the same or equivalent license terms — there is no requirement to publish anything to the public at large.
I doubt many LLM’s are sighting their sources or giving proper credit when they spit out code snippets.
I learned writing code for free, by looking at other code and reading online manuals.
I also learned how to play the piano by listening to people playing it and getting online sheet music for free.
I guess I am a baddie now.

Do you have a bot army that scrapes websites and repositories? Do you not give credit when credit is due? Do you poorly plagiarize work and claim it to be your own?
While I appreciate the learning aspect, the abuse of these LLM’s is blatantly clear.
Me. I don't want to get hacked.
Don't use machine-generated code. Either it's a small snipped you'll easily understand. Or it's such a vast amount, that you can't claim any responsibity over it anyway (and if you can't, don't ship).
LLM can be a help, but they can't be your coder.
MIT licensing 🤮
So its a worse SDF-1
Man this kinda brings me back to the IRC days. I love fun, entertaining projects like these.
I have returned to the land of my people.
