@zzt they don't need it to generate a c compiler, they need it to checks notes correctly merge patches.
@dysfun if only linux had a tool for this

> We are completely overwhelmed, of course. The glimmer of hope is that we secured sufficient LLM budget and access (thank you Meta!) to run reviews with multiple frontier models on each patch. This eliminates some hallucinations.

@zzt we are so fucked
things fall apart, the kernel cannot hold

@zzt right but previous maintainers had to type a git command. don't you see, now clod can do it. after reviewing it. we trust clod's review, don't we?
well that's fine because we crosscheck it with chatgpt. we trust chatgpt's review, don't we?
well that's fine because we crosscheck it whatever the fuck meta is cooking. we trust meta's meth lab's review, don't we?

@dysfun it’s like a random number generator, just keep xoring things in, that’ll fix it

@zzt you're right to push back on that, i shouldn't have force pushed deleting all branches on the server
-
if only we had lots and lots of examples of easier systems projects using similar techniques that entirely failed and now don’t exist as functioning projects
what are bun and rsync, why do you keep saying those names
I really liked having fully working linux systems for… like 7 out of the 30+ years I’ve been using this fucking thing
we even briefly got gaming before they decided to come and fuck it all up in exchange for money

@zzt but it's the future!! Look how big PR we can make now in the future!

maybe one day we’ll tell the next generation what it was like owning hardware and briefly having an operating system that mostly wasn’t entirely terrible to use
-

@zzt do you remember when that was a new thing and we literally couldn't believe it could be that bad?
and now we just can't believe it's still that bad.

but nah, I’m sure it’ll be fine, I keep seeing the take on here that somehow the kernel doesn’t matter at all for a desktop and nobody will notice when it breaks
you know, the code that literally all of your applications call into, that makes all your hardware work
the thing that was the point of being on linux at all
the kernel????

imagine traveling back to 2001 and going “nah the kernel doesn’t really matter” around any of these people
they’d cut you with a fucking knife

do you think any of the guys telling me I’m engaging in conspiratorial thought or whatever for pointing out who’s paying torvalds to do this shit will feel anything at all when they read “thank you Meta” in this bizarre fucking post? nah can’t be anything, the Linux Foundation doesn’t own the kernel somehow even though they own the guy who owns the kernel

@hipsterelectron I would like to!

@hipsterelectron also you’re going to hate the elisp I’m writing
but crucially it’ll probably be done enough to share soon

@zzt the people of 2001 had been violently disabused of this notion before it could form by the infliction of Windows ME and its garbage-ass kernel.

@zzt "Are we the baddies" walked so that "Thank you Meta" could run.

@zzt counterpoint: all elisp is holy

@otte_homan I don’t think any of the kernel devs have the capability of having ideas anymore, their brains are dripping out of their ears live on the lkml

Clearly the kernel doesn't matter because we're all just running everything in a virtual little box that can't see anything else and the kernel is in fact just a host for endless amounts of these boxes and nobody ever actually runs software natively right? In fact clearly the web browser should just be the kernel right? Nobody has ever used "software" before, just "apps" and apps live on the web, right? Guys I'm a fuckin genius give me 10 splebtillion dollars I have invented the future of computing. /s
