<p>Important to note that the cost graphs are heavily distorted. The agentic serch one for example is divided into 3 'columns': $0-$2, $2-$5 and $5-$10.<p>And yet, the $2-$5 section is the widest, even though it only contains a single point.<p>I can't even say if this is making the product look better or not, but it sure is weird. Maybe Claude just hallucinated those splits xD</p>

<p>I know general consensus on this is that it is good, but I hate this. The fact that both assignments do completely different things (with the map one doing heap allocs!) is insane. This would've been much better if it only allowed for anonymous structs.<p><pre><code>  var A string = "A"
  type Foo struct { A string }
  var a Foo
  var b map[string]string
  
  a = {A: "abc"}
  b = {A: "abc"}</code></pre></p>

<p>Most (if not all) of these issues do not matter at all outside the scope GNU utils run in.<p>For example, using filepaths instead of FDs does not matter in most cases in controlled server environments, or in processes that will never run with elevated privilege (most apps).</p>

<p>I think most people oustide the area do not care and do not know about who's on top, and the negative perception is much more related to how the tech will enable users to misuse it (replacing phone lines/support, AI art, things losing quality, etc) than about the companies themselves.</p>

<p>With the recent barrage of AI-slop 'speedup' posts, the first thing I always do to see if the post is worth a read is doing a Ctrl+F "benchmark" and seeing if the benchmark makes any fucking sense.<p>99% of the time (such as in this article), it doesn't. What do you mean 'cloneBare + findCommit + checkout: ~10x win'? Does that mean running those commands back to back result in a 10x win over the original? Does that mean that there's a specific function that calls these 3 operations, and that's the improvement of the overall function? What's the baseline we're talking about, and is it relevant at all?<p>Those questions are partially answered on the much better benchmark page[1], but for some reason they're using the CLI instead of the gitlib for comparisons.<p>[1] <a href="https://github.com/hdresearch/ziggit/blob/5d3deb361f03d4aefef29426cf333782fc05d7cf/BENCHMARKS.md#full-workflow" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/hdresearch/ziggit/blob/5d3deb361f03d4aefe...</a></p>
