@hbons Sure. Always punch up as high as possible. (Though I have chosen a different restaurant than originally planned because of their slop menu but I didn't go in of course to tell them.

@tante oh yea, if they had a feedback form I’d tell them.

None of these people doing shameful things deserve a place in polite company. They should be shamed for their shameful choices.
The AI industry is also running a PR push to redefine common word usage. The word “slop” is also super effective — so the bros really hate “slop” and try to define it to mean slop they don’t like.
But all AI output is slop. It’s social spam. That’s what it’s for. It’s slop! Say “slop” every time."

@tante tbh Linux does not go full AI slop, but Linus actions are concerning. Not that he has not been wrong before.

@tante I've seen a push to redefine slop as "particularly bad LLM output", as opposed to LLM output in general.

@tante This too (Meta interference), appears like an attempt by Meta to take over Infrastructure. They’ve already tried as an ISP, and they have bullied their way into fiber deployment across the world. If I’m reading this correctly, this is very worrisome.

The Linux kernel process has become a slop lagoon with a massive feedpipe from the slopfarm. When the slopfarm bubble pops, it takes everything with it, including the slopbrains that feed from the slop lagoon.

Being shamed by @tante is like being tickled by a fly. At most annoying

@tante though let’s apply it to institutions and powerful individuals first and foremost.
I don’t feel like shaming my local takeaway for their slop flyer.

@tante When Meta pays your bills and Silicon Valley’s fascist elite invites you to speak, you tend to change. Usually without noticing.

@tante It seems to me that some people’s opposition to AI is downright fanatical. It’s one thing to have silly pictures of cats doing human activities; it’s another thing to use AI to help create software, where it’s actually useful.
This black-and-white rejection of generative AI is childish. -

@tante man there are layers to this shit onion for sure.
Don't like the meta involvement. Don't like the pay-to-play attitude for kernel contributions (although I agree that contributions should not be made easy. They shouldn't be made exclusionary as well. It should just depend on code quality). Don't like the overall tone this is worded ("social warrior project")
Unfortunately Linux is still the least bad alternative in terms of compatibility and support compared to windows and MacOS.

@tante I continue to call it slop at work. I am not well liked by some coworkers but I don't give a shit, I don't respect them at all. We'll see how long it takes to get reprimanded by HR I guess, but I ain't stopping.

@tante [1 of 2] The wording is a bit too strong there, blaming wrong people for wrong things. Slop is a result of a developer ignoring the code output. It was there before LLMs, though people have to try harder even if they just copy-paste from StackOverflow without thinking.
Author assumed there are AI Overlords, while in reality it’s just a bunch of corrupted and greedy (and mostly crazy) technocrats.
