Torvalds and the maintainers are acknowledging reality: developers are going to use AI tools to code faster, and trying to ban them is like trying to ban a specific brand of keyboard.

The author should elaborate on how exactly AI is like “a specific brand of keyboard”. Last I checked a keyboard only enters what I type, without hallucinating 50 extra pages. And if AI, a tool that generates content, is like “a specific brand of keyboard”, does that mean my brain is also a “specific brand of keyboard”?

It's about the heritage of code not being visible from the surface. I don't know about your brain.

Hate on the politicians not moving, not on those moving too slow for your liking. This shit is why you have Trumpaloompa now.

Mastodon has a very singular type of user and circle jerk communities. Maybe it'll grow out of its tweeny phase some day. But until then, it will only attract more of the same crowd. Much to its detriment.

Without the Meta layer (which you can just not install), the basic smart RayBans are actually pretty nice. The audio is pretty good and it works with any other assistant you may have configured. I wish they had a version without the camera.

Tbf, this holds true for any accessory, from chairs to computer cases: Anything branded as "gaming" is usually mid quality at a premium price.

is there are policy responsible for this?

Probably just a result of the snow. No way any policies got implemented that fast.

Mobile phones and apps did it. They let boomers poke and swipe their way into platforms while taking a dump in a volume that Apple alone could never have managed.

Honestly: "Journalist discovers Apple product still functions properly after 10 years" sounds like a headline to me.

It's not even about missing a piece anymore as much as wilfully holding it upside down.

Linux is like the Star Citizen of operating systems: There are people who see the potential and trust things will be fixed. And there's the people who have been around for a while.
