Which is a shame considering the Linux distro has never ever once ever ever ever contained a bug

You’re right. Nothing has been stolen and then treated as public property in our society. I am fool, and you are a god.

Anyways

AS I said to the other dude, I’m not going to keep coming up with examples because you’ll just keep moving the goal posts. There are tons of examples of something of value, natural or man made, being stolen and later treated as a common good.

Just do some research.

So I assume you agree that if someone murdered you, you would prefer they go free and live a happy life.

After all what would they be punished for. There is no victim.

Yes that’s one of the mechanisms to steal the land

Furthermore - I suspect he doesn’t even care if you understand it. He cares if it works reliably. If you accomplish the task of solving hard problems by taking shrooms and dancing naked on your keyboard, I don’t see why he would care.

Conquered is a funny way of saying stolen.

Coerced purchasing, or purchasing from someone else who stole, or purchasing under intentionally false understanding, is still stealing.

This is just one example. I’m not going to keeping punting just for you to move the goal posts.

Morality of using resources that someone else stole is ‘muddy’ to say the least but the majority of modern society would not function if we didn’t look the other way.

For example, I hope you’re not living anywhere in NA or most of Africa or many areas in Europe or some areas in Asia. Because if you are, you’re probably standing on stolen resources.

It’s not ‘based’ to be pro-AI.

This is the standard position for anyone that got mega-rich on tech and still has high tech market exposure, such as Linus.

This is the thing I’m trying to advocate people to understand. It’s not that they were wrong about AI a year ago - AI has changed in radical ways people couldn’t confidently predict within just a year.

The AI coding agents a year ago DID create slop that would dillute your code base. The AI coding agents today generally don’t.

It’s becoming increasingly less valuable to combat your LLM and scrutinize it’s output. You can provide more market value by assuming it’s 95% correct, doing some manual verification, and architecting it in a way that leads to low integration complexity. The OOP principles are still relevant - abstract, encapsulate, etc.

I swear I’m not an AI bro despite the above comment being somewhat pro-AI. I’m just trying to be pragmatic about the state of our field.

CRAM is an utterly goated name

I think it would benefit from growing - the volume of content & discussion it just too small to support niche topics. If you want to talk about things other than the top ~30 topics, you will be waiting days for any form of response.
