Right 150miles is enough most of the time for most people, but it wouldn't make much sense to buy a pickup truck if you can't use it that one day every few weeks/months you actually have to transport something a little farther away.

And most people wouldn't buy a pickup with two seats, so considering the use case of a two seat pickup truck, 150miles range isn't that great.

Programmers can double their productivity and increase quality of code?!? If AI can do that for you, you're not a programmer, you're writing some HTML.

We tried AI a lot and I've never seen a single useful result. Every single time, even for pretty trivial things, we had to fix several bugs and the time we needed went up instead of down. Every. Single. Time.

Best AI can do for programmers is context sensitive auto completion.

Another thing where AI might be useful is static code analysis.

Well yes but also no. There are quite a few distros that are "minimal effort", they just work for the average person without any more knowledge you'd need on Windows or Mac. The last part that's still not so "minimal effort" is gaming, most things just work out of the box, some things don't. Btw Android is Linux.

So I don't think that the problem is that Linux needs a little more knowledge or effort, because it mostly doesn't, but the fact that most people who would switch see a billion different distros and don't know what to do. Having so much choice here actually hinders people from coming to Linux. Doesn't mean it would be better with less choices, it's just one of several reasons why we don't see mass adoption.

Another reason is the outdated thinking that Linux is complicated to use (and this blog fuels just that).

Why would I need AI for that? We should really stop trying to slap AI on everything. Also no, I'm not that big of a fan of wasting energy on web crawlers.

I'm quite happy to see this shithole disassembling itself. Was about fucking time.

Like 95% of democratic countries are much more democratic than the US...

We should first check if ChatGPT is able to handle Air Force One

"americans" is a bad name but it's more specific than "united statesians". But I would fully support dissolving that country and founding a new one (or multiple) with a better name.

Nintendo fans will vote just like Apple Fans.

I've been playing Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel recently on PC and despite being relatively action heavy it's 99% left hand (WASD + Q + space)

But if your tool chain is worth anything the size of each binary shouldn't be bigger. To oversimplify things a bit: it's just #ifdefs and a proper tool chain.

In the web development world on the other hand everything was always awful. Every nodejs package has half the world as dependencies...
