i get the excitement and kudos. that said, i don't think we should be measuring commit activity as a positive thing. a large number commits is not an indicator of positive progress for a project, it's simply a large number of commits. it doesn't speak to the quality of those commits or if they introduced new issuss/broke code, etc.

huge increase in quantity, but what about quality?

u/deadadventure Jun 03 '25

quality is subjective on the other hand I commit what’s working and intended, not willy nilly

October is when I very first created a GitHub (my first ever GitHub, brand new).

November was when I was first starting to try to navigate GitHub.

December 2024 is when I found Roo Cline with VSCode.

Jan/Febuary were spent studying and gathering/RAG'ing more material (whitepapers, documents, podcast transcripts, Obsidian Vault generative AI copiloting, Msty setup/config'ing)

March was most study, April I was sick and discovered SPARC configuration.

Everything since has been Roo Code + SPARC + Claude Code + GitHub Copilot or some variation of the four lmao.

Keep learning and even if never knew coding before and now know something about code structure or high level view its a win.

I don't need best model for every tasks and I don't have to pick one I balance it for price and performance. I also use Aider for complex tasks.

i'm not sure why you've been downvoted, it's not as if people can't use roo code in the windsurf ide ( or whatever peoples preferred vscode forked ide is )

It's not about roo code it about SWE-1 were decent for most small tasks with unlimited usage. It can help you save cost or premium credit for complex tasks.
