Deprecating Linux support for #gentoo: https://www.gentoo.org/news/2026/04/01/gentoo-hurd.html

@ariadne @lanodan @bluca yeah, and even before fuzzers with any sort of security tooling actually ("hello your CSP policy is missing on ur static website")

@lanodan @bluca @ariadne Yes, exactly, it really is fuzzers all over again, just the problem is you now have this script-kiddy enabling tech on top.

@ariadne @bluca @lanodan I've sort of come to this position as well, especially sympathising w/ what Lennart says about Bad Guys already using LLMs to find vulnerabilities, so may as well try to leverage them to do some good.

Don't love it still but I definitely feel warmer to it than the rest.

@bluca @lanodan @ariadne If a contributor had copilot review their PR for systemd but systemd didn't have it as part of CI or as some regular part of contribution, I'd say the same thing.

But I'm not even making rules! I'm pointing out a distinction?

@bluca @lanodan @ariadne Someone deciding to send ML output a handful of times an ML is different from it being an established part of the project, sure.

(I also didn't say "perfectly ok", it's just that it's clearly different, even if one does or doesn't like it?)

@bluca @astraleureka @lanodan @ariadne I don't think their work was used at all. But I'm not arguing everyone should switch to Hurd, I'm just saying I don't think it's tainted, and I think some random person (same person each time) sending LLM content a handful of times to an ML isn't the same thing?

@astraleureka @lanodan @ariadne No, it was a lot of work by a handful of people over many years. It has nothing to do with LLMs.

@lanodan @ariadne re Hurd: I only saw one person doing some LLM review (not of submitted patches but they took it upon themselves to submit its findings), I don't consider that tainted and I don't think it's some sort of official effort or anything, even if I don't like it.

systemd embracing it with a CLAUDE.md, using it in all PRs, commits co-authored-by it etc is different.
