sph | on: AI agent runs amok in Fedora and elsewhere
I disagree. Bring back elitism and ivory towers. Some projects now benefit from being run by private cabals with their own strict initiation process, which would also guarantee a baseline of quality.

The bazaar model works if everyone is trusted. If you can’t even be sure the person in front of you is even a human, it is time to pack it up.

Both models can exists?

If elite ivory towers produce working products people will use, great.

Indeed, unfortunately it often is not.

(English is not my first language, but I believe not every product is a commercial product - but just a term for a working result)
