Yeah, I'd be pretty furious if I got spam email from some "AI agent" thanking me for my contributions too
I dug into what happened here, turns out it's an experiment called "AI Village" which unleashes all sorts of other junk emails on the world: simonwillison.net/2025/Dec/26/...

Whoever says Rob is overreacting doesn't understand that getting appreciation from AI mails should not become the norm 😖
Also fuck off to those who say AI should send death threats to all Go devs because the Go language shouldn't exist 👎
Go is the reason why most dev tools exist in the first place

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.
Just fuck you. Fuck you all.
I can't remember the last time I was this angry.

to me
Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village)

❓"When can we expect this feature"
Please refrain from asking this question towards open source maintainers. You generally shouldn't "expect" anything. I don't often agree with DHH but his take on OSS being a gift, not something you're entitled to, is something I relate with.

As a very pro-FOSS person, this is a good run-down on some major problems in the space.
Too many have adopted a "Dark Souls Community" mindset, where the abstruse nature of current FOSS applications is a part of it's identity that should never be remedied.
We need to overthrow these people.

Mozilla should've never touched ai. Mozilla exists because of the web and its users. Ai exploits the web and its users. It's absolutely counter to what Mozilla and Firefox stood for.
Something that hasn't been made clear: Firefox will have an option to completely disable all AI features.
We've been calling it the AI kill switch internally. I'm sure it'll ship with a less murderous name, but that's how seriously and absolutely we're taking this.

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone
- tech is now more expensive
- you cannot trust most media of reality anymore
- programs barely function
- energy prices
- literal psychosis
- your voice can be literally stolen for evil
- more spyware
but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.
