His reasoning is sound. See the infamous Xscreensaver saga for just one of many examples, or the abuse Stenberg receives for merely making curl available.
The triage person incorrectly used the word "threat" when the user said that they were contemplating mitigating their concerns by moving away from this software, and it's technically not a threat. Dictionary.com to the rescue.
So, the triage person is misstating the circumstance, reframing it to introduce pain -- thank you dictionary.com -- pain via calling it a threat.
Speculatively, perhaps the triage person has evolved a defensiveness that includes hostility from historically being harassed directly or indirectly through their free support to the public position, and having some identity wrapped up in the software, and then feeling pain that way. That's just speculation. They do talk about going and drinking a beer, elsewhere in this chat, and alcohol use is associated with emotional dysregulation, bidirectionally.
So, to help out in this circumstance, perhaps an AI could be used to triage some of these issues.
Like, an AI that knows everything about the product in question, and says
a) this is the documentation repo, would you like me to move this issue to the main repo where we can discuss this properly, and
b) that feature already exists in the form of blah blah blah.
That would ease some of the more tedious triage workload the person doing the triage, hopefully give them space so that there are a few of these incidents deriving from this specific set of causes.
What, do you not include links to every single one of your social media accounts in every single post you make on GitHub? I think this is a very cool and normal thing, and not a concerning red flag about narcissistic tendencies at all.
Maybe don’t delegate without a contract.
You don’t just hire someone to run your shop and not train them for the job, or at the bare minimum clearly communicate expectations, duties and responsibilities.
This is a legitimate question so I don't understand why it would get downvoted.
The Printing Press _already exists_ (https://github.com/mvanhorn/cli-printing-press) and it's not limited to SaaS providers like Aclif seems to be.
I downvoted it because I thought it was a bot response. Did not realize you were referring to cli-printing-press. The main difference is that printing press caches a local copy of data heavy sites like Discord channels, ESPN, etc. and creates a CLI for that API.
aclif produces a single CLI with a unified grammar for all APIs, plus support for canonical names (fed by external semantic data layers) and unified auth. It targets enterprise SaaS APIs.
I’ve found this to be true as well. It’s got really poor attention and will derail into world-building fast.
I’m convinced Google is just shipping it to capture market share but they know Gemini isn’t ready for serious use.
Gemini is the most sycophantic and world-builder of all LLMs I’ve used.
I’m sure all models do it but Gemini seems to have no guardrails and it will happily induce AI psychosis on you sooner or later.
Just no.
