The first point seems to be generally accepted, though the second about "prosperity for everyone" presupposes some very drastic social changes. Automation tends to make a portion of people more prosperous at the cost of displacing some other portion. In order to realize prosperity for everyone, there must be minimal displacement and likely a robust social safety net to enable the displaced to recover and attain prosperity at some later time.

Regardless of the quality of work done by an LLM, all of this AI hype has done an absolutely stellar job of clearly dividing the world of software development into two cohorts: those who care (to literally any degree, about process or product), and those who are only involved in it because it makes money. I have never quite liked the latter, because they are often difficult to work with, tend to lack any motivation to develop an in-depth understanding of certain concepts or problems.

There are better solutions perhaps, but this article (as many others here have pointed out) reads as if it were written by someone that just "graduated" from a security bootcamp and thinks that they have some earth-shattering revelation to share.

Agree with the point, but Vala is pretty old (relatively speaking). It's been around for a while and the whole idea is to have a GTK/GObject-focused C-family language. Last I looked it was a C transpiler and may still be.

too much wheat tbh. grow more pulses - anything in Vigna would be neat, and there's a bunch of other really cool stuff too. also, do some reforesting to control heat at ground level and reduce evapotranspiration from lower plantings.

That's uBlock you were thinking about, which is owned by AdBlock. I'm 98.9% certain that Raymond Gorhill's project which I can build from source and install is not doing that.
