Be honest: When was the last time you cleaned up obsolete code from your repos?

2•PangeaRocks•39m ago
I just had a chat with a buddy who invested in a startup buying up obsolete code.

The use case is there, Github and other repos contain 10+% of obsolete code which no one ever deletes and it costs a bunch per year for just having it there.

What if you could just licence the code to Anthropic, OpenAI or any other AI lab and make passive income every time its sold.

Does that as a use case make sense for you?

More info about the business can be found here:_

Are you the owner of pangea.ai? It is possible to post your own stuff here but people is more friendly if the owner/developer/whatever is avaliable to answer questions.

Is the code anonimized? Tested for password leaks?

PangeaRocks•30m ago
Ive been a friend with the owners before it was even Pangea.ai, Ill just send a link to this discussion to the owners and they can answer all questions.

There are two modes - One of payment for the licence which is usually 10x the multi-licence deal, or its paid once and than every time another company licences it.

I think the competition is now for the dev insights, way of work, human touch and trying to teach the agents how to replicate it, and they pay 100 USD per 1m token of code
