#VibeCoding killing #OpenSource is a serious concern! I often ask AI to find packages / tools that could help with a certain problem when a traditional web search doesn't reveal enough, and I let AI write regular expressions or create dictionaries. But I always make sure to credit #devs and projects whose code I use, especially when I am sharing it with my students. We need a stronger citation culture in programming and make sure that people who code remain visible! 👩🏼💻

Day 52. The Hexagonal Nose ⬡
For this project, I explored a speculative version of Yosemite: what if El Capitan's Nose route had formed with hexagonal columnar geometry.
The terrain base comes from OpenTopography LiDAR, so the relief and scale remain grounded in real data.
Built with QGIS, Qgis2threejs, and Three.js.

> Linux didn't win the way anyone expected. There was no dramatic moment where Ubuntu overtook Windows on the desktop. No press conference. No champagne. Linux won the way open source always wins — gradually, relentlessly, by being better at the things that matter most to the people building the future.
