I do not worry about being "left behind" due to the adoption of LLM coding agents. I worry about a massive dip in the quality of software that's already been moldering for years due to the adoption of LLM coding agents. I worry about the FOSS maintainers who are already under-compensated for their work burning out entirely having to deal with the adoption of LLM coding agents. I worry about the environmental impact of the adoption of LLM coding agents. I worry about the laundering of FOSS (and non-FOSS source available!) code into projects that are now legally culpable due to the adoption of LLM coding agents. I worry about the people who can no longer write code without leaning on an LLM coding agent becoming helpless without spending ridiculous (and increasing) amounts of money to companies that may or may not exist in a year due to the adoption of LLM coding agents. I do not worry about being "left behind" when it all comes crashing down and people who are actually skilled have to pick up the pieces and rebuild due to the adoption of LLM coding agents.

Liberation isn't something you rent. Or buy. Liberation is about us together embracing each other's dignity and our duty to take care of each other.
Nobody is free until everyone is free.

People like Sam Altman want the opposite.

That's why there is no "leftist case" for "AI".

We need more people in this world willing to make illegal large tensegrity icosahedrons

TIL. In April 1974, in the middle of the night, a small group of conspirators secretly installed a large tensegrity icosahedron made from discarded telephone poles on the campus of Twente University in the Netherlands.

It’s still there. People call it Het Ding (“the thing”).

Looks like they're also using Claude for PR review github.com/systemd/systemd/com

Which probably means systemd is now the most attractive target in FOSS for an AI prompt injection attack to insert a backdoor

🤮 Don't buy Palmer Luckey's 'retro N64 style' clone console- if you see one, steer clear. Palmer is a shitty fucking warmongering asshole, and you can read about his shitty warmongering in this very article. Fuck this bullshit.

I can't wait for an LLM to convince Poettering to bring back the rm -rf / bug again. It would be especially hilarious if the slop machine convinced his army of sloperators to put it in journalctl.

Need to find out what's happening as it happens? `tail -f /var/log/logname` is for luddites; systemd hates you so much it's `journalctl -f -u and_you_had_better_give_the_right_unit_name_baltimore`

I left Linux 10 years ago because his notoriously bad code and good charisma with distro maintainers and one desktop environment in particular...

...made it literally impossible for me to install something as entirely unrelated as a (GNOME-based) window manager without replacing my system initialization daemon with systemd.

I am entirely unsurprised that Poettering et al would become a sloperator, but it's destined to prove that LLMs are even worse at coding and reinventing software poorly than he is.

LLM slop is just one part of the broader systemd/Linux sloperating system.
