I mean, yeah, he could also not use git and just write some random bullshit directly on prod while blindfolded and blackout drunk.
However if you want a good product and good code you need to follow best practices, and those include meaningful and small PRs that you can easily review, check, debug, and revert if necessary.

Watching youtube in a mobile browser works, but is a completely separate form of torture

reVanced is alive, well, good, and at this point necessary

Most skilled engineers, and even mildly skilled engineers don’t use slopgenerators to write code. Some of them use it sometimes to do some menial tasks, although I’m not convinced it actually saves them time. It sure doesn’t every time we measure it.
There is however a plague of low skilled people who convinced themselves that they’ve found a shortcut to being an engineer. Those people are producing bad things at a fast pace, and the only reason we’re not in an unsolvable crisis yet is that their slop isn’t hitting prod very often on account of being bad.

This doesn’t make me uneasy. It makes me resentful, a little angry, and a lot tired. Thanks for bringing it to attention, I will make sure that nothing of that project or from that author will ever cross my ecosystem again.

Doesn’t matter, it’s entirely too much for one PR

Nvidia is doing a lot of that. It’s slightly better than nothing. It also quite expensive unless you’re Nvidia.

Don’t listen to what the other guy is saying, it’s all bullshit. His vocabulary betrays this wonabe haxxor with bad ideas about everything and weird choices, and his suggestions are the same.

“Sane” people are exceeding minority. Everyone is couple of good conversations away from failing into some sort of rabbithole from which there is no return. Some people have very easily triggerable schizophrenia, which is more obvious, but nobody is OK and nobody is immune.

You don’t even have to “break” llm into anything. It continues your prompts, making sentences as close to something people will mistake for language as possible. If you give it paranoid request, it will continue with the same language.
The only thing that training gave it is the ability to create sequences of words that resemble sentences.

Will they patch useradd or adduser to support that?

I’m talking from experience both in education and sysadmin duties. In my life I helped hundreds of people switch to Linux, for work, for home, for everything in between, and was that helpful person that answers all their questions. I have the statistics, however informal, I know what I’m talking about. There are whole categories of problems that people encounter with Ubuntu and it’s derivatives that just categorically don’t exist in Arch. And you can trust whatever the fuck you want.

4: those commands were written for previous version of Ubuntu and now dependency tree doesn’t compute, also one of the commands is to add their custom repo, and you don’t have keys for it so it doesn’t work anyway. You try to remove the bad repo and now your apt is all fucked. You regenerate your repo list, googled the package and your version name, random stackexchage page gave you their live repo, but it needs a newer version of a library that incompatible with 54 of something that you already have. You learn about snap, installed 43Gb of something, it exists but still doesn’t really work because package maintaiers didn’t actually move it to snap, it was someone else. By this point you copy-pasted so many commands into your terminal you afraid it gained sentience. You call your more computer literate friend, he starts saying something about incompatible dependancies, containers, and you don’t really understand much. By the end, you decide that you didn’t actually want the software.
Later you discover that your sound doesn’t work anymore, and there is an error when you reboot.

Good ending: you installed Arch, installed yay and instead of remembering unmemorable -S you just do yay package_name and you’re very happy with your choices.

If you need a GUI software manager, my suggestion is to not use arch

Arch is actually great for beginners, way better than usual alternatives like Ubuntu for example. If you need a GUI software manager, Arch or Arch derivatives are still better than a lot of the rest.
Besides, a lot of people like fancy GUIs, nothing wrong with that. You’re right that graphic app stores aren’t amazing, but that’s shouldn’t be the norm then. I will still do everything in CLI, but I will vehemently defend our less technically advanced bretheren’s right to click their mouse on the colourful buttons

There is a bunch of stuff that can become an alternative, if the users will come.

By now it’s kind of getting clear that fundamentally it’s the best version of the thing that we get. This is a primetime.
For some time, there was a legit question of “if we give it enough data, will there be a qualitative jump”, and as far as we can see right now, we’re way past this jump. Predictive algorithm can form grammatically correct sentences that are related to the context. That’s it, that’s the jump.
Now a bunch of salespeople are trying to convince us that if there was one jump, there necessarily will be others, while there is no real indication of that.

You’re failing into the same trap. When the letters on the screen tell you something, it’s not necessarily the truth. When there is “I’m reasoning” written in a chatbot window, it doesn’t mean that there is a something that’s reasoning.

Your deep insecurity is too on the nose

What do you do to it so it becomes unstable?

At some point, when you’re combing through archives looking for the exact version of a closed forum post that contains exact info you have, you understand that this system also sucks.
