<p>Node-based editors are not new.<p>The Arc homepage is clearly vibe slop but with 75 nodes and backend supposedly coded in C, it looks to me like it would have taken a couple of months to get here at least, certainly not a release within 1 week of Youtube-person's mention.<p>It doesn't seem to be open source unfortunately.</p>

<p>Just checked since you made me curious. With 1 PHP and 1 nodejs project in 2 windows, here's the usage (on Ubuntu Linux):<p><pre><code>   Zed is using:
   - CPU: 4.7%
   - RSS: ~2.1 GB
</code></pre>
The bulk of it is language servers (TypeScript/tsserver is adding ~600MB). Zed by itself is ~790MB RAM.</p>

<p>Yep, the email they sent out is terribly worded so it looks like the age requirement is for Zed itself.<p>Their actual blog ( <a href="https://zed.dev/blog/terms-update" rel="nofollow">https://zed.dev/blog/terms-update</a> ) says the age requirement is only for their AI service (still not the best wording but a little clearer):<p>> Age requirement. You must be 18 or older to use Zed’s AI-enabled software-as-a-service offering (the “Service").</p>

<p>Local models are quite capable. Obviously a 4B model isn't going to do the job of a trillion parameter SOTA model but there are many local models that are both fast and very usable for these agentic flows.<p>Qwen 30B and GLM Flash (also around 30B) are both very good for example and I use them regularly.</p>

<p>Thanks for being part of the discussion. Almost every response from you in this thread however comes off an unyielding, "we decided this and it's 100% right"?<p>In light of this vulnerability, the team may want to revisit some of these assumptions made.<p>I guarantee the majority of people see a giant modal covering what they're trying to do and just do whatever gets rid of it - ie: the titlebar that says 'Trust this workspace?' and hit the big blue "Yes" button to quickly just get to work.<p>With AI and agents, there are now a lot of non-dev "casual" users using VS code because they saw something on a Youtube video too that have no clue what dangers they could face just by opening a new project.<p>Almost noone is going to read some general warning about how it "may" execute code. At the very least, scan the project folder and mention what will be executed (if it contains anything).</p>
