DHH on artificial inteligence:
Not only they got good, they got amazing. Agents are better than me at almost all forms of programming. […] In terms of comparative intelligence here, I’m accepting that I’m becoming a little of a pointy head boss here.

he wasn’t much of a programmer to begin with and if you look at the repo for Omarchy…i highly doubt he touched most of it by hand. many scripts in that thing leave you scratching your head as to why the guy from Ruby On Rails would write that and then you realize “ah, yeah, Claude wrote this.”
it’s slop. it’s all slop. They also have well over 1000 “user made” plugins of which NONE are vetted, most are broken, and some just straight up exploit the users system. I found one that just straight up takes the users .ssh directory. It’s the wild west of idiocy amongst Omarchy users.

I’m trying to understand the hype. Is it cause this stuff is normally a pain to configure? I thought the point of Arch was to define your own system. Why would I use Omarchy? Also every tech influencer is pushing this distro like it’s the best thing since Linux was released but the use case seems very narrow to me. Tiling wm aren’t for everyone so why are they all so excited for this? It does look sleek depending on the theme but I just don’t get it.

It appeals to the people who think a tiling WM looks cool but can’t be bothered to do the most basic documentation reading to install and configure it.

Not any of the ones that I follow. Perhaps that’s a signal to curate who you listen to.

There seems to be an expectation in the Linux community that everybody who sticks with Linux long-term will eventually “graduate” to a tiling wm someday. Even though I’ve used Linux for 20 years and still prefer KDE.
