As with everything else with Claw that sounds mildly interesting: A shithead human wrote that, or prompted it and posted it pretending to be his AI tool.

“Your kid is safe at school, because we insist all teachers use condoms”

Meanwhile, at HQ: “The userbase hallucinated that they don’t want AI. Maybe we prompted them wrong?”

Every single line of code is a maintenance cost, a liability, a velocity cost, and a stability risk.

The software industry knows this. Even Bill Gates famously proclaimed it.

Yet we now allow “it generated so much code!!!” to be told as success stories. Fuck you Sam Altman, Microsoft, and Anthropic for damaging both my industry and its reputation.

We are?

Just post your prompt, bro

This space filling word soup is just wasting people’s time

Nah. Gonna stick to gaming on my GNU GUIX through Proton thanks.

Linux is clearly not only good enough, but simpler too.

It’s just a ton of perception, habits and sales pipelines that need moving now. If electronics stores started putting out Linux Gaming PCs, nobody buying them would be worse off than Windows. That has been true for well over a year.

I keep seeing the “it’s good for prototyping” argument they post here, in real life.

For non-coders it holds up if you ignore the security risk of someone running literally random code they have no idea what does.

But seeing it from developers, it smells of bullshit. The thing they show are always a week of vibing gave them some stuff I could hack up in a weekend. And they could too if they invested a few days of learning e.g. html5, basic css and read the http fetch doc. And the learning cost is a one-time cost - later prototypes they can just bang out. And then they also also have the understanding needed to turn it into a proper product if the prototype pans out.

Hey I am not in need of convincing haha. Am Linux gamer and genuinely find it easier than Windows already.

Instead of waiting a few more years for Linux to reach the level of ease-of-use needed to overtake Windows, MS is being sporty by moving the goal closer.

I can totally believe that nobody else felt like bribing paying out of their nose to have a Guinness employee fly over and look at a small computer and go “yep its small”.

Wow so next time I have a burning need for agentic experiences in my life I know a product exists to serve my need.

Liar

An economic bubble isn’t when something is fake and ceases to exist when the bubble bursts.

We use the term when the market is inflated way beyond its value.

A bubble bursting is when people realize the market is inflated way beyond its value and pull out, leaving debt-ridden companies to their debt.

Some go bankrupt, stock prices fall, economy news outlets insist nobody could have predicted this, investments go elsewhere, people are laid off, and the people responsible fail upward to another grift.

Please step into the Science to be cleansed, human

Here’s an expensive thing!

What value does it have?

…you figure it out!

I am not impressed.

:o

Business idiots are killings jobs. Generative AI is just their excuse to do it and threat to make people feel more replacable.

It’s on the verge of pedantic, but I feel it important that we blame people for lying and causing harm, and not let them hide behind the imagined inevitability of tech and progress.

Generative AI can’t replace shit, but the lie that they can and do, is the weapon wielded more than the tech itself.

Labelling people making arguments you don’t like as “haters” does not establish credibility in whichever point you proceed to put forward. It signals you did not attempt to find rationality in their words.

Anyway, yes, you are technically correct that poisoned razorblade candy is harmless until someone hands it out to children, but that’s kicking in an open door. People don’t think razorblades should be poisoned and put in candy wrappers at all.

Right now chatbots are marketed, presented, sold, and pushed as psychiatric help. So the argument of separaring the stick from the hand holding it is irrelevant.

The stereotype is of the haughty Linux user, but fuck me all I ever see in these discussions is Windows users being belittling assholes.

Your phone just sounds broken, honestly. Take it to service if a power-off/on reboot doesn’t resolve it. Maybe try to clear/reinstall the mail app and see if that helps.
