This line of thinking I feel like assumes it's the only program running on your computer. Using less of my CPU and memory means my computer can do more things in parallel, or even run more instances of the harness. My laptop is sweating when I got 5+ claude code sessions running.
I haven't monitored CPU usage so closely, but seems to get heavy with basic tool calls and editing. Memory usage definitely is out of hand, have an idle session right now eating 500MB
Coding agents have been been such a blessing for my Emacs setup. Only getting more psyched about emacs. It was pretty good before but my elisp skills never really advanced much beyond gluing together existing libraries and copy pasted snippets. Now I'm having a blast vibecoding tools I could only dream of before, beyond what I even knew was possible.
Yup. When you give an LLM a "true" REPL, it stops guessing and starts empirically assessing the situation and achieves results faster, costing you far less tokens. And when you have something like Emacs - a malleable substrate you can programmatically change inside-out, it gives you immense capabilities to shape your environment, truly dynamically.
You just don't inject the real secret unless hostname/whatever rule matches the request, right? I don't know if that's how this works but it's my assumption.
There is value for the person maintaining this library cause they want it that way.
If you develop a useful library and give it away for free then all power to you if you want to rearrange the furniture every 6 months. I'll roll with it.
But the fact that they made a new release with it undeprecated shows they _do_ care about their users (direct and indirect), and at least from my point of view (both from the Python ecosystem and the browser ecosystem) this was a pretty foreseeable outcome.
A good query builder is more important than ORM imo. That's what I like about sqlalchemy. The query builder pretty much maps 1:1 to SQL and you can use it with or without the ORM mapping.
Most of my projects have a mix of both along with plain SQL for some of the meatier queries.
