I’m starting a new build-in-public project: oomwoo, an open-source robot vacuum you build yourself. Raspberry Pi, ROS 2, 2D LiDAR, Home Assistant, 3D printed, local-first — and open from the first commit.
“Here is a beautiful piece of art. You say it’s just a blank piece of paper? Please feel free to draw your own art on it, and then it will be as I said.”
I know the real news here is the hardware, but it is still funny…
The thing is… it’s not blank. It’s painted, but someone complains no that the art is bad, but that they don’t like how it was painted. Well, nobody is forcing you to look at it, you can even paint it yourself.
Don’t use any operating systems and most major websites then because theyre all using a coding agent now. It’s just the way the industry is going at the moment
edit: Linux uses Claude copilot ffs. It needs to be noted as an AI contribution and needs human review but Linux and Windows definitely use AI coding agents and I guarantee Apple does too. Be in denial all you want. I’m not advocating for them, I’m stating the reality of the industry right now.
The difference between Linux and this random repository is that Linux has very strict code quality control, this repo and other thousand of projects (including winvibe 11) don’t;
If everyone had a strict policy of “AI as an help only and not as a replacement” and quality control, then i wouldn’t complain at all but we aren’t at that point yet and i doubt we will ever be
Again I am not advocating for AI coding agents but they ARE BEING USED in major applications. Unplug or accept a lot of software/websites you use are using coding agents
That’s exactly why I don’t like Linux that damn CIA project. Once I leave parents’ crib, imma sell my best laptop (with no parents looking at me like an absolute moron) then get a ThinkPad T450p from a crackhead and then get someone else to buy that one MacBook CPU with an adapter board from Aliexpress and give that to me so that I can finally compute in peace with some BSD.
Thank you for saving me the time I would have wasted getting excited about this
Well there is nothing to be excited about, the entire repo is empty with only a bunch of readme files. Zero code has been written ai or not.
It’s open source. Feel free to write your own software, or pay someone to do it for you.

Isn’t the repo basically blank…?

Lemmy users don’t care about reality, you’re talking to a brick wall basically.
Go tell this to a fencepost near your home.
