@marko1olo Please do not submit any more PRs until your other open PRs are handled (closed or merged). |
|
@marko1olo Also, you opened another PR that claims to fix #1188: #1226 What is the relationship between that PR and this one? |
|
@slivingston Sorry about the confusion. #1226 was my original attempt at fixing #1188, but #1244 takes a different (and cleaner) approach — it addresses the root cause in the ZPK conversion rather than rejecting complex coefficients at the TF constructor level. I'd suggest closing #1226 in favor of this one. I'll close #1226 myself. Apologies for the PR noise. |

@murrayrm @bnavigator @sawyerbfuller There is evidence that this user is an AI agent:
The above already violates the NumPy AI Policy (https://numpy.org/doc/stable/dev/ai_policy.html#communication). While some PRs have been merged and fix small issues, there are repeatedly quality problems that would not happen if a human was involved (e.g., modifying LICENSE in multiple PRs) or was familiar with control systems. In summary, I think this is just an agent using Claude, Codex, etc., that reads our issue tracker and then automatically generates PRs. Because
therefore I blocked the user. I can unblock them if you disagree. To add to this, other repos where this user has tried to contribute have already identified the problem, e.g., |

I'm OK with the block. Even if the user wasn't an AI agent, they have done a lot of things that have caused a lot of extra work. We should probably close out any PR that requires additional modifications, since the user won't be able address them if they are blocked. Someone else can pick up the issue, see the proposed change, the submit a new PR at a future point. We can let things sit for a day or two, to see if others have comments. |
