The right answer should be "until you are able to do it".

That's the whole premise of welfare. Anything less or more is privilege/vice

While for "simple" diffs these UIs are "fine", I'm still struggling (after 15+ years of search) for a really good tool that could help me with 3-file diffs...

I'm still stuck with (k)diff3, and, while they work, I would really like to a more integrate web interface for my projects

New comment by _ZeD_ in "Using AI to write better code more slowly"

Basically you're using AI as very costly linters...

what's wrong with (depending on the language) checkstyle, sonarlint, ruff, mypy, xmllint, and/or eslint?

Or, you know, as aether.

It's a scientific theory. It's the best that we have right now to model the real world and be able to do prediction on its behavior.

Does it seems to be kept together by duct tape? Maybe.

Is it yet useful? Yep.

Will it be discarded if anything more fitting will came up? You can be sure of it.

New comment by _ZeD_ in "Open source does not imply open community"

_ZeD_ — Sun, 03 May 2026 05:15:57 +0000

>>> To be more specific, Open Source only promises the four fundamental freedoms (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Free_Software_Definition).

no, that is FSF's free software.

I'm sick of coming here and see "open source" as something with "moral values" - stealing it from the free software with "the magic" of conflating the two concepts.

Open source is just big software companies stealing from innumerable volunteers

dude, that is a configuration.

it is completely declarative and lives in the best place, near your code, not on some other inaccessible repository.

what have you preferred? a json file? a yaml one?

I had them, and I find the annotations are more readable than other solutions.
