    @marekfort Zed's dead, baby, Zed's dead.

    (I have no idea what this Zed is, if it's "AI" bullshit though bring on the bit bucket.)

          We're protecting them kids so goddamn hard, they'll never learn anything that could possibly help them in the future.

          We're still letting them get raped by rich assholes, though. Don't get too excited.

              @marekfort At school in the 90s, we still wrote our code on paper in exams (computer science), for example. 😉

              In retrospect, I didn't think it was so bad. You had to think about the problem much more carefully before writing code.

              Okay, but the age limit for an editor is nonsense.

                @marekfort @Gargron I think it’s probably more that you can’t enter into a legal agreement like new ToS unless you’re 18 (in the US, at least…)

                Lawyers ruin everything.

                  @marekfort I remember when piracy was how young people got their first code editors.

                  We've worked hard to end that barrier to new coders. Shame to see this sort of thing. Coding is for everyone.

                    @marekfort You might (accidentally) conquer the world, topple whole countries, change the order! Oh the horror! 😱

                    (I started coding way earlier than 18, and I don't support this situation, BTW).

                        @marekfort Under 18 can't be bound to a contract and the legal liability is the only close competitor to profit for motivation in this space.

                              @marekfort this doesn’t make any sense. It’s clear the end goal with age verification has nothing to with verifying your age…

                                  @marekfort context should be added here. The TOS explicitly states “you must be 18 or older to use Zed’s AI-enabled features software as a service offering” I assume that means the ask for your age when you add tokens and use AI.

                                  I’ve never used their AI features and I don’t plan on starting to anytime. Glad to know we have alternatives in the Zed space.

                                        @marekfort I recently looked at Zed and immediately dumped it because they prioritized using AI over editing in their documentation:
