Monty is the missing link that's made me ship my rust-based RLM implementation - and I'm certain it'll come in handy in plenty of other contexts.

Just beware of panics!

Please report any panics, we'll fix them!

Why do SWE build tools in the open that are openly hostile to their own trade? Like I can understand someone selfishly building tools for themselves, but by contributing to these efforts you're basically donating free software tools to companies that will only be used to shrink their own engineering teams by making llms more capable/efficient.

While I think all LLMs are shit, they probably eventually will not be shit, and it will because people like you contributed to their progress. Nothing good will come of it for you or your peers. The Billionaires who own everything will kick you out to the curb as soon as you train your replacement that doesn't sleep, eat or complain. Have some class solidarity.

How do you feel about software engineers who build open source libraries?

Open source has been responsible for enormous productivity boosts in our industry, because we don't all have to build duplicates of exactly the same thing time and time again.

But think of all of the jobs that were lost by people who would otherwise been employed building the 500th version of a CSS design system, or a template engine, or code to handle website logins!

What makes AI tools different? (And I actually do agree that they feel different, but I'm interested in hearing arguments stronger than "it feels different".)
