Hello fellow developer, AI is tough to keep up with. Especially when it comes to names that things get. What's a skill? What's an agent and what are commands? In this edition we have a few resources to help with this confusion. We also have some hidden ChatGPT features and show you how you can run Linux inside a PDF. But first, we sat down with a person responsible for one of the most important pieces of software you all use without knowing it and why he stops asking for outside bug reports for money.
Daniel Stenberg of the cURL project just announced that they are shutting down their bug bounty program, despite getting great reports and issues to fix in the past. The reason is AI slop and people flooding the project with non-existing issues. But that's just one of the issues, so check out what else is worrying for OSS in times of AI.
