The core issue isn't hard so I built my own, native OIDC auth, status, comments, plus I made communication a first class citizen, tracked it its own status workflow. Another nice thing I like is that status has attached a workflow that associates actions with a status transitions and task screens are defined in data. All APIs go through a single endpoint that can be intrinsically combined into batches. Still fast. It isn't that great, but I like it so much better then any of these commercial offerings.

For a family, these are so much better.

As for the detractors, from the first generics proposal this was called out as a "not now", not never. There were questions of implementation. They aren't a super large team, and they try to do things incrementally and do them well.

I haven't tried grok4.2 or grok4.3 yet for coding, but it wasn't up to the challenge as an agent yet. It looks like grok4.3 shifted its training and operates always as an agent first judging on some web usage. Musk knows grok is behind and states it publically. Now with grok4.3 release I do plan to try it again to see if it is suitable.

If you read that, quote again, he is saying "how can you quantify safety in a card?"

Republicans may not like porn, but they put the onus where it belongs, on the operator, not on the OS.

This is in Go, exposes both webdav and SFTP servers, with user and admin web interfaces. You can configure remotes, then compose user space from various locations for each user, some could be local, others remote.

The protocol has no direct in-protocol cancellation, like TDS has. TDS does this by making a framed protocol, at the application protocol level it can cancel queries. It has two variants (text and binary) and can cause fragmentation, and at the query and protocol level only supports positional parameters, no named parameters.

One a query is on the server, it doesn't support directly acting on a language mode. I don't want to go into SQL mode and create a PL/SQL proc, I just want direct PL/SQL. Can't (really) do that well. Directly returning multiple result sets (eg for a matrxi, separate rows, columns, and fields) or related queries in a single round trip is technically possible, but hard to do. So frustrating.

I like gerrit, but the server is such a pain to handle (java plus FS). PG would be the only server side component required, though you could have an optional review server that would act like a PG client as well.

The FUSE would be extremely nice for CI/CD for instant cloning with a local resource cache, which is much harder to do with a FS based git.

If you couple this with an optional FUSE provider, server side user branches, and gerrit like change sets, that would be awesome.

You do value human utility, right?

For AI: none know the future. The future you thought you saw before was an illusion, as it always is. So be humble, and take things a day at a time.

For Politics: Maybe the US and the US administration isn't the bad guys. Maybe the bad guys sent the murdering dictators cash, and maybe the good guys are taking them out, giving actual democracy and the people a chance. Consider you could be wrong. Be humble.

For Tech in general: choose agency. Take one area where you can try to build or use things which you don't think is slop and is good. Build, use, or support that. Ignore the slop and let it rot. You don't need to control the world. You just need to control you. You are limited. Be humble.

There are also network effects. Your plant that is energy intensive is closing? Now other manufactures must increase their cost as transportation is increased and local contracts harder to get. Your chemical plant, which has operated within good bounds for a decade can't get a permit to expand, or is protested? Your intake products now either go up in price or become unable to attain them at all.
