New contributors&amp;rsquo; issues and PRs are closed by default, no reviews on weekends, and don&amp;rsquo;t submit PRs if you don&amp;rsquo;t understand the code. It seems tough, but behind it is a serious attempt to address a problem: how open-source projects can avoid being bogged down by low-quality contributions in the AI era.</description><media:content xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://shenxianpeng.github.io/posts/2026/pi-contributing-philosophy/featured.png"/></item></channel></rss>
