Can you post the quote where it says that it's untested and it goes straight to master

I'm lost.

    Also, looking through the authors articles, frankly, the list looks like low quality human slop.

    And I can't find any evidence they're actually involved with any development projects either. Literally ANY projects including stupid little pet ones every dev has

    I mean, having pet projects doesn't require being "involved" with one nor requires making anything public...

    Except I can't see any references to this guy getting involved with any projects at all at a technical level.

    If you check his articles, he's definitely targeting a specific crowd based on what I can see too.

    Saying "there is an AI bot that identifies if code is obviously bad" doesn't really make an exciting story though...
