This is one of those cases where companies unfortunately misalign their interests with yours.

You will never get a promotion for reviewing other people's pull requests.

At least the slop it produces would be deterministic.

Plus Go's function for locking a goroutine to an OS thread was broken to the point where you could not safely rely on it for quite a while.

This writeup reads like it was written by Claude, which makes me immediately question its accuracy.

> Each dot is one code sample; bars mark the median. The split between malicious and benign packages, perfect before the prune, was perfect after.

People do not write like this.

My frustration (on top of what you said) is that DHH is already a multimillionaire. Of all the distros, I feel like his is the one that needs donations the least.

I think your emphasis might be in the wrong place...SQLite for config makes enough sense, but as a config _file_?

> The pattern in who survived is uniform:

Wish I had a dollar for every time I heard this construct from Claude Code.

Does exiting following by resuming the session fix it?

> Ask Fable to conduct an adversarial /ultareview of their PR and send the same wall of text back to them.

This won't help. Your wall of text will just get fed right back into the LLM.

I think most of the people who use the term in the context of Linux desktops don't know the term's origin (or at least don't stop to think about it), so the possibility of it being racist never occurs to them.

I don't remember the name of the software/protocol, but I once saw a demonstration of something that seemed similar to the Internet using amateur radios communicating with each other. I think they had either email or something functionally similar, but I was told that it didn't use Ethernet or IP at all (if I'm remembering correctly).

Edit: found it, it was TARPN https://tarpn.net/t/packet_radio_networking.html

GitLab's "internal" workings are surprisingly public, so you can just look at the git history yourself: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/content-sites/handbook/blob/ma...

What purpose do you have for NAT other than putting it where you should actually be putting a firewall?

Nah, that honor goes to Network Solutions. GoDaddy is definitely in 2nd place though.

So what does it mean, concretely? What repercussions will he personally suffer?

> My grandmother would often identify stitching on my slacks. I was, quite literally, blind to it!

I'm telling myself that this is an intentional "blind hem" joke.

Enterprises love Windows for the ability to centrally manage an entire fleet's configuration using Active Directory. Is there anything for Linux that comes close to that?

> No custom tailoring, no AI guidance, no real automation. Just pre-populated forms that required you to click “save”.

I hate that I've become this cynical, but it's gotten to the point where reading the "no x, no y, just z" construct makes me assume that writing is AI generated (and then I immediately stop caring about reading it)

As much as I want to agree with you, the people who like TikTok make up a significant amount of the population, and their opinions do matter--arguably more than yours, due to sheer numbers.

Smugly dismissing them doesn't do you any favors except for making you feel good about yourself for a few seconds.

I feel the same way every time I read that someone did something "quietly" in a headline.

Yeah, this is an incredibly common metonym.

Personally, I'm diametrically opposed to the idea of letting Google dictate how web browsers must function, which is what happens if everyone uses Chrome (or a fork) and web developers start targeting features that are only supported by Chrome (and its forks).

The question is not "Is Opera a valid choice instead of Chrome?"

The question is actually "Is Chrome, or anything that's based on it, a valid choice?" and the answer is "no."

You just reminded me that I got about halfway through Soul of a New Machine. Maybe I'll pick it back up this week.

Using the example from the article: "K let circle back nxt week bout it . thnks"

I'm not buying your argument. The amount of additional time that it would have taken to write that same message with proper grammar and spelling is minuscule.

"Your employability is higher if you get good at doing things that few other people are good at doing."

There, I just condensed the entire article into one sentence.

Yeah, $5 databases is something that maybe I would actually use for some hobby projects, but that one sentence just killed any interest that I had in ever giving this company my money.

Don't cache plugins exist for WordPress? Or, barring that, wouldn't CloudFlare help?
