It’s impossible to disengage the deployment of technology with the way the technology was deployed. I’m not saying anything that I’m not saying. I believe that there could have been a world where deploying technology in all these classrooms had a positive effect

When PRs are spammed, it's impractical to discuss each submitted change. The existence of the PRs interferes with the ability of maintainers to continue making directed changes.

That statement is a convoluted version of the narcissist's entitlement. ie "other people should realize my vision".
The increased review burden is also happening inside companies. It’s genuinely hard to keep up with the volume. I was a little surprised to see my comment downvoted. I’m not saying we shouldn’t be able to delete slop PRs. Of course we should! I’m saying that the pr should change at least _somewhat_ in response to how much programming is changing.
Also worth stating that I have been ranting about contract first reviews for 10 years and it’s not just in response to llm written code.

Not the same but this gives me an idea… what if there was a map reduce for doms as a web primitive. Like imagine if I could make a dom (or feed) that was some selection and transformation of another dom
I hope Obsidian has a headless SDK running outside Obsidian that allows devs to read the vault and do various analysis and automation. With this kind of structured data there are a lot of potential use cases. The obsidian binary limitation is a roadblock there.
Because the data is front matter you can get it into other systems pretty easily but an sdk for executing the views seems really key

Neat! What OSes does this support?
I feel like itd be cool to try prompts based on an adversarial justice system… attorney agents arguing both sides, a judge ruling on “the law”—adherence to instructions etc

Not my area of expertise but I don’t think storage is a big deal, relatively speaking. It’s all about the compute
