RE: cosocial.ca/@mhoye/11614877281

I think of this every time I see AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md. WHAT YOU ARE WRITING IS DOCUMENTATION. Why are you suddenly interested in writing clear documentation for the robots when this information would have been helpful for every human contributor who came across your project??

“Die Strafverfolger sollen solche Angriffe vielmehr technisch unterbinden dürfen, bevor sie kritische Schäden anrichten können. Das umfasst laut den Berichten das Umleiten oder Blockieren von Datenverkehr, das Stilllegen ganzer IT-Systeme und in besonders schweren Fällen sogar das Löschen oder Verändern von Daten auf fremden Servern.”

Und nun liebe Kinder die Gretchenfrage: Müssen Sie dafür Exploits kaufen und offen halten? 🤔heise.de/news/Gesetzentwurf-Po

Tea Time

Toyo-View 45C • Voigtländer Braunschweig Heliar 1:4,5 F=24cm • NoColorStudio no.10

These sheets got fogged somehow in the handling process (even the unexposed border is nearly opaque). So now I have to begin the process of experimenting to see where things went wrong, and whether this pack of film is still okay.

But in this case, I kind of like the result!

"Donald Trump, reeling from the Epstein pedophile scandal, soaring inflation, and rotten poll numbers, launched an unprovoked regional war without congressional authorization — let alone a coherent rationale for the strikes across Iran."

"Fascism is the moment where the concentration of wealth and power becomes so strong that they don't even have to hide their anti-human, anti-democratic aspirations. They can simply say the quiet part loud. People are going to die. We're going to revel in the cruelty of things."

"The strikes on Iran that began Friday were initiated unilaterally by the Trump administration, but are not unilateral internationally: Israel is also participating in the action. It's not surprising, given Trump's relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, but it comes in the immediate aftermath of new Gallup polling showing how much more skeptical Americans are of Netanyahu's nation."

Rant: LLMs contributing to FOSS

LLMs contributing is an oxymoron.

If LLMs produced good code, and if LLM-using-humans were honest, polite, and respectful, would it *then* be a good idea for Free Software projects to accept their contributions?

I think the answer is no, not under any circumstances, as a matter of principle.

I wonder if this focus on things like (i) the code being poor, (ii) the maintainer burden increasing due to an increase in (sloppy, huge) PRs, (iii) murky licensing issues, might somehow sidestep the heart of the issue.

These LLM companies have hoovered up every line of FOSS code they could get their hands on, everything that FOSS people have worked on for decades, often unpaid, often underappreciated, often as a labour of love, often explicitly released as a service to the common good.

So they come in, they hoover that up, and tell CEOs "you can fire your workers!", while giving workers the carrot and the stick: if you use this you'll be god-like, if you don't use it you'll be unemployed. They tell governments, if you don't use it, your adversaries get an advantage.

It's non-optional, you have to accept us as middlemen (yes, men), it's the future, etc.

And the problem maintainers have is the code is poor?

The problem is that these silicon valley goons & associated billionaires and politicians view human beings as statistics at best, and as expendable detritus at worst.

Computers and networks, for these people, are a means to extract wealth from populations, and that's all.

FOSS projects should say no to this stuff because LLMs represent a massive shift towards *even more aggressively anti-human tech*.

Sigh, ok, rant over, thanks
