I removed a package by force because I didn't realize that two packages needed to be upgraded in the same action. In my case it was glibc so even commands like `ls` failed.
So triple check every command where --force is enabled, mistakes have real harsh consequences there.

@Gargron I can't speak for @mitsuhiko of course, but for me it's not a bad thing, but also not necessarily a good thing (again - see above 😉 ).
But in this case, I think there is not a big case against waiting for the hype to calm down: Those tools are very easy to learn, and *everyone* is winging it right now anyway.
@dtanzer @Gargron Politicians and policy makers absolutely shouldn't be late movers.
They need to get on top of things and legislature appropriately before the shit hits the fan and the LLM companies shrug and say either "we told you we didn't guarantee anything" or "externalities like society and the environment aren't our problem when we're making investors money in the short term".
That's not the same as "they need to listen to the hype from the companies selling it and throw all of their support and national investment behind it with a blank cheque to do what they want".

AI for coding is like using an air fryer in the kitchen. People who use an air fryer and think it's amazing can't cook.

This is great news! Hopefully the critical mass is big enough now to motivate developers to finally fix the horrible Bluetooth errors that are killing my Linux experience every day.
Connection errors, random disconnects, forgets set keyboard repeat rate, it is so extremely annoying if your OS does not even allow you to use a keyboard without problems.
We all need to reconsider how our democracies run. How democratic are our current systems really? In Australia a number of our community councils run by citizen assemblies. I would like to see our whole country run at least in part this way.

A comic from 2022. I want to make a distinction between the Democrats who are speaking out forcefully against authoritarianism and those whose overcautious approach enabled the extremist takeover of our institutions. This is about the dangers of unaccountability and kicking the can down the road. As recent elections demonstrate, voting is still extremely important.

This kind of cynicism doesn't solve anything, and never can. It's corrosive and infectious, and promotes an atmosphere of despair. There's nothing positive about this. It just tells us, "There's no hope; give up." Where is the hopeful contrast implied in the leading text?
I'm sure you mean better, but this just ruined my day. Maybe I'm just the wrong audience. I find your work depressing, and can't follow any more, I'm sorry.

I'm not trying to troll or be (too) pedantic, sort of petty to argue with a mime's wording. As you illustrate, 'empathy' varies by age (not to mention form).
My roots were in 'humanism' (Rogers, Sullivan, Maslow, Beck) and I'm the first to apply the lens of (my longtime mantra) #ContextAndPerspective.
Not in the best mood, sorry, "empathizing" with what used to be my country & world.
