'there are multiple wildly different X servers being built from scratch'

by claude code. So this was only possible since no human had to bear looking at X original source code.

Map of Metal 2 months ago

Let me quote Wikipedia:

The popularity of nu metal came to a peak in 2001 with Linkin Park's diamond-selling debut album, Hybrid Theory.

Not just that. As a 31 year old developer even I feel like acquiring new skills is now harder than ever. Having Claude come up with good solutions to problems feels fast, but I don't learn anything by doing so. Like it took me weeks to understand what good and what bad CMake code looks like. This made me the Cmake guy at work. The learning curve delayed the port from qmake to CMake quite a bit, but I learned a new skill.

Uhm no? We have been self-hosting Gitlab for 6 years now with monthly updates and almost zero issues, just apt update && apt upgrade.

Thanks <3 Working on this project also made me realize that cpp needs something like crates.io. We are using vcpkg as a second-best guess for cpp library usages, because it has more packages than sites like conan. Also adding support of things like import statement list, shows that there needs to be a naming convention, because now we have this wild mix:

- import boost.type_index;

- import macro-defined;

- import BS.thread_pool;

Author here. Sadly, this had to be done, otherwise you would not see anything on the chart. I added an extra progress bar below, so that people would not get a wrong impression.
