Renowned snake oil salesman peddling more snake oil. Pretty on-brand.

You started writing code in the 60s, yet you never quite mastered the craft, and you're proving it yet again. Remarkable.

If you find anything interesting, please let me know, I'm interested!

I am... linking to a relevant article? Are you OK?

Ah, touché. That was a bit... grandiloquent 😄

The original point still stands though, there was nothing actually mystical about what I was saying before, it was fairly simple to understand.

I honestly cannot figure out why it would fly above your head like that.

It's not because you don't understand them that they're meaningless.

Classic LLM-fueled Dunning-Krueger nutcase.

You're unlikely to spit out code from your corpus verbatim, so the answer to your first question is a resounding no. If you did copy from your previous job's, you'd be liable.

🤦

I honestly expected better from him...

Code doesn't exist in a pure, abstract vacuum, the environment around it shapes it and makes it useful. Technology all by itself is sterile.

When Torvalds says he doesn't want politics in his projects, he means he doesn't want the politics he doesn't like to come up when discussing Linux. He's made a lot of political statements throughout the years, but it's acceptable for him because it's his.

The planet is burning, and government-sponsored hackers are threatening all users of one of the most widely used kernel, but sure, we need the thirsty CVE-generation machine today because he's had his fun playing with them.

Well, good luck enforcing the GPL with the low-quality generated slop. The lack of foresight from one of the world's top software leaders here is frankly appalling.

Disjkstra wrote a nice paper explaining why natural language is terrible to write code... It's a dream for idiots, actual engineers dread the ambiguity.
