Seems like he’s been pushed into using LLMs as a way to cope with the deluge of LLM-generated security reports.

Yes that is a communication lapse on my end, i try to make issues personal to emphasize them but it’s not always relevant. I don’t think it should detract from the broader point, sorry if it does.
I think the data shows that we’re far from fine and already resource-constrained on most critical projects. It’s not that people stop caring about open source, it is still fundamental to the way the web works. It’s just that they don’t feel personally compelled to pitch in because they think we’re doing fine now. The wikipedia analogy works well here : it is still fundamental to the way people get information, but it’s chronically understaffed and may already be in a death spiral.
Maybe you’re right. People have less resources and less spare time. Maybe we are fucked, even in the short-mid term. It looks pretty good to me (a lot of big players rely on Linux and core open source infrastructure, open source/self hosted tools are generally recognized as better for the business, we moved out from proprietary standards to open ones, there’s push for interoperability and so on) but maybe there are deeper issues I don’t see and it will all collapse sooner than I think.
oh man while i do love being correct, deep down i hope you’re the one who’s right and i’m overreacting
