I am self hosting matrix server, set up element in my family devices and for once we escaped the network, from time to time I do create a whatsup account while travelling, but I give up on it right after.

Brave search was surprisingly good, like google when it wasn’t shit.

have a really bad dev next to you? just hire the same dev a second time and tell them they are now full time reviewers.

not in a million years

yep, instant skip

I am nowhere close to be as smart as him or people like him, but I abandoned a project because of sloppy massive PRs and started refusing to put my name / approval on most PRs at work also because of the same thing, I am the tech person who stayed the most here and not gonna waste my time reviewing slop for others to take credit (just push it with Claude, dev XX will review it properly before it hits prod).

The decline started, but I will keep protecting my side in this company while I am here. I use LLMs occasionally (so I am not going against management trying to make us more productive) to type less, or extract smaller snippets, … but the change is 100% what I had in mind and I hold myself 100% responsible for the output.

Most systems also use single user, you normally give yourself docker group access (I use docker for work) and that alone is equivalent to root access. It’s not the 90s anymore where universities gave user access to all students, priv escalation was a big security threat, now it almost doesn’t mean anything, nobody shares the same machine anymore the way they used to do.

if somebody has user access to your computer, they are already 95% there, so I am not worried about these priv escalation part of the last 5%

came here to say exactly THIS

Now you get pissed at your current boss? just publish an open source version of that

isn’t it the same everywhere now?

• CEO vibes code some shit that gets some attention
• Sends it your way
• Can you make this production quality?

At least fucking send me the prompts so I understand what you wanted to express instead of me reverse engineering this shit for days

Stealing is obviously a dumb analogy, it doesn’t remove the ownership from the original owner.

You are selling computers, I buy one then I find a way to replicate the computers you are selling and I give them away for free, it makes me a thief? or the end consumer a thief?

Originality and work is definitely yours, so it’s definitely a gray area, but quite an exaggeration to call it theft.

Last point is the related studies that people pirating are either getting it for free or never paying for it anyways.

cool, fuck half of the world

yes, race, sex, … because in some countries men can’t access women stuff online and women can’t access men stuff, there is some good pushback and this looser was shown the door in a few places like the freedesktop gitlab and Ubuntu repos. Such a fucking looser.

Like its not even enforceable

Why bother then?

The author of the PR explicitly says IT IS TO COMPLY WITH THE NEW TRACKING LAW (LOBBIED BY FACEBOOK/META).

There are a few forks already like https://github.com/Jeffrey-Sardina/systemd and more will pop up for sure. I will try to build it maybe at least I can help with some infra to build it + an AUR package.

Dylan is a lowlife fucking looser

Yep, I am suggesting to not try at all until they make it clear how am I going to comply? which will lead to “I am not gonna put any resources into this feel free to fork it and do that”. We agree it’s stupid-ass but we need to help them understand that.

Like prepare a reply why I didn’t put age verification into my custom Arch .iso from now rather than find solutions for them. They also have to block my website and torrents somehow, not me having to geo block other struggling souls like myself sitting somewhere else (I don’t even put captcha in my websites, just a rate limiting value that a normal person would never be able to reach).
