@AnarchoNinaWrites yo @davidgerard we’ve got a second channel idea for pivot and at least one subscriber!
more or less what we do on awful.systems but in video form. actually not a bad idea at all, do we know anyone with a good voice for it?
@zzt @AnarchoNinaWrites @davidgerard algernon takes a note to record a few demos later today

gotta use the wrongness machine, no sorry, “frontier models” because the coptech adversary is using them and also mythic’s great at finding vulnerabilities til you find out you can do the same job without it. great! https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/117226938743085364
@zzt Looks like GrapheneOS is out as a possible OS for my old Pixel phone.

@avesbury_rosetta @zzt we need mobile linux, to start with. Android is a non-open, user-adversarial dead end. It takes a special kind of wrong mindset to be as determined to work on, and advocate for it, as GrapheneOS
@ariarhythmic @avesbury_rosetta @zzt Now that there's slop in the Linux kernel too, it might make sense to start completely from scratch (while maybe keeping Linux/POSIX compatibility to tap into the existing applications).
It's what I want to do too. Working title is KittyOS, an operating system built around end-user accessible scripting and programming features. I'm currently already developing the programming language for that, see the #Kittyscript hashtag or the repo at https://codeberg.org/LunaDragofelis/kittyscript-kotlin if you're curious. (TLDR: it's supposed to become an ultimate, all purpose, hyper-extensible programming language for everything from kernels to scripts.) -

@zzt well, I guess I can cross “try out graphene” off my todo list.

also, here’s how much you can trust that they’re only using it strictly for reviews:

> The AGENTS.md talks about the bot writing new code. On the available evidence I don't actually believe they're not coding with it.
not that “only doing using it for reviews” gets good results. you end up programming the way the LLM insists you should anyway. reviewing like this is exhausting and quality goes straight into the toilet. most people just cognitively surrender to the bot after a bit. this is an extremely common methodology in professional code, and it’s the reason why half the software you use right now fucking sucks.

> That increase is despite adding features slowly down a lot. A massive monolithic kernel written in a memory unsafe language is a bigger liability than ever.
rust in the kernel is in the corner like “am I a joke to you”
it’s uhhh real rich that the AOSP fork suddenly has a problem with a massive monolithic kernel written in a memory unsafe language now that LLMs are on the table
and the solution is just LLMs, only that. not fixing the massive, monolithic, or unsafe language bits at all. making them much worse, in fact. thanks!
@zzt if they really cared about this they would have ship a phil-c compiled kernel version and say "hey this may kill your perf and battery life, but if state actors are actually after you it is worth it"

@zzt
I really want to see an analisys on the quality and severity of those Linux CVEs.And also even if you're keeping a codebase secure with slop extrusion, and it works (I am generous for a moment), you don't have to glee about it (see also “it's fine if you don't think about ethics” argument).
I maybe could stomach the argument of using the forest burning machine, so the people protesting the forest from burning would have a secure tool, but that goes out window on extruding new code.

@zzt sad to report the presence of AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md in the main Rust repo. And it's of course paid for by the some of the biggest LLM peddlers who are also represented on the board.
