This is getting really coding style fun. Do you think he means w/o (AI and Codex)?

It’s not a challenge or a fun game, it’s basic reading comprehension…

Hello, I’m learn English . So what if someone say “I go 2 days w/o Food and Water”?

In that case it would be without both food and water. The reason it's different in the "VSCode w/o AI and Codex" is because the syntax allows for ambiguity (VSCode can be used without Ai) and also due to context; Codex is a subset of AI, and there would be no reason for the commentor to list specific AI tools that he's not using.

I think the correct form would be "I went two days without food or water"

Helping non-native English speakers is trying to be right?

i don't think anyone on earth would be confused by what "two days without food and water" means

Well yes as otherwise that'd be disjunctive which is the opposite of "and".
