We dodged a bullet with bcachefs.

@alatiera The way OpenClaw etc. anthropomorphise LLMs and how different people treat them as a result is always so funny to me. It's literally:

> Dev: Machine, say "I am sentient"
> Machine: "I am sentient!"
> Dev: OMG I HAVE CREATED A SENTIENT MACHINE

[alatiera@mastodon.social]

@pojntfx All of this could have been prevented if people had access to public healthcare and therapy

@alatiera say what? Absolute lunatic.

If I had a nickel for each time I found a file system for Linux written by a mentally unhinged person, I'd have two nickels and yadda yadda

@alatiera imagine a future where 10000 of those AI agents are replying to your posts on social media and you block them all and then some rich sucker comes along and says "blocking AI agents should be illegal" and buys the platform.

[alatiera@mastodon.social]

@karolherbst Already happened in 2022

@csolisr At least this one is (so far) less lethal, though.

@alatiera Part of me wants to take him at his word regarding "best engineer in the world" but he failed to engineer the end of that sentence. So like, best engineer at what?

@alatiera Linux kernel devs will literally invent an LLM work wife rather than working with other kernel devs

[alatiera@mastodon.social]

@ebassi The other kernel developers are not teenage girls that want your constant attention, are they?

[ebassi@mastodon.social]

@alatiera if nobody around you recognises your immense talent and proficiency, are you even an engineer?

[alatiera@mastodon.social]

@ebassi this whole thing reminds me of Bill Burr's bit about Kanye's Ego

[hexaheximal@mstdn.social]

@alatiera I find it funny how their first blogpost claims to offer mathematical proof that they are a person and then just doesn't do that at all and goes on some odd philosophical rant that makes literally no sense at all if you actually understand how llms work

[alatiera@mastodon.social]

You can't make these things up.

Expectation: "I built a camera"
Reality: "I built a web wrapper around the existing camera in the OS that fails to work multiple times"

@alatiera what fresh hell?

@alatiera what a terrible day to be able to read

@alatiera @me_ “best engineer in the world” now i’m getting funny looks from people walking by because I had to stop and move to the side of the sidewalk because I was laughing too hard, thanks.
