    Barely skimmed it, but it says stuff like for the people saying things like “I’m a PhD from xyz uni and I’m telling your LLMs are just stochastic tools that make everything up and the world will fall apart if you use them”, I’m here to tell you that you are out of date. The world of software engineering has changed dramatically in the last few months. which is sold-in-dumpster-alley quality copium, and also that version 3.5 is going to “raise the bar enormously with regards to rsync security”, so I guess we’re looking at a notably vibe coded security model for rsync going forward?
