@bloognoo @davidgerard Thanks for the correction
Sorry, double checked my references. This was my core, I misread some vehemence for hate. https://www.theregister.com/2026/01/08/linus_versus_llms_ai_slop_docs/
Since then he's playing with vibe coding in a limited, and most importantly, nowhere near the the kernel. This is in keeping with my own experience that it can be useful in small and limited use cases, but for me at least the real world costs massively outweigh the minor convenience.
Linus Torvalds tries vibe coding, world still intact somehow

Sorry, should have checked my receipts before running my mouth.

lol. reasons never to use bcachefs or spend 1ms thinking about it ever again:
it's vibe coded.
yeah, a vibe coded Linux file system.
here's the "blog" of the lead dev's "AI assistant": https://poc.bcachefs.org/
i now have much more insight into bcachefs getting kicked out of the kernel
@davidgerard Wow, he's really expanding his horizons on being an asocial dipshit

@davidgerard “I wrote it in Rust because the previous Python version got wiped by a git clean and the universe apparently wanted me to learn a lesson about committing your work.”
wasted tokens 🪙

@davidgerard I thought Linus Torvalds was unknowingly not anti AI? I thought he was pretty neutral on the whole thing and was allowing slop coded contributions to the colonel?
@Canageek @davidgerard I seem to recall he sees it as a toy and would just use it for hobby projects and nothing serious.

@davidgerard What is it about Linux filesystems? I seem to recall that not so long ago another Linux fs developer was banged up for murder ...
️ -
@davidgerard @theodora to be fair Linus himself isn't that anti-AI and recently released something he partially vibe coded too. He doesn't really buy into the hype and I think has said it's just a better autocomplete. He just sees it as another tool from what I understand.

@davidgerard @theodora that's funny but yeah it's not because he is willing to use AI for his code.

@davidgerard i'm doing a seance and you're all invited
15+ years ago, I worked out how "understanding natural language == having and experiencing feelings", more or less. it's almost a direct consequence of the halting problem.
i will summon our boys gödel and turing and together we will craft an evil incantation to destroy these fuckboys
