Why are people so greedy? Why can't they wait to be given something, or remain content without, rather than take from others by force? I'm genuinely curious too.

Animalistic survival desires under conditions of engineered scarcity and reduced awareness. Compounded with powerful need for consistency - to keep everything this way.

Anyone with a decent amount of social power is aware and skilled at maintaining these conditions whether consciously or not.

The praxes are non-trivial: awareness, bravery, flexibility, and seflessness.

This could be summarized as "unhealthy competition."

That's no moon.

Or search engine ads, natch. My eyes rolled out of my head.

Thanks! I had no idea they added a paid option.

This is a brilliant browser for iOS/Linux usage, and now its UI is minimal, and its settings are filled only with stuff for my benefit. It feels like the early 2000s again! This should be much more ballyhooed.

> Chronic depression doesn't usually have a "cause"

Is that true or your guess?

I have first hand experience. Also "depression" is different from "chronic depression". You can experience the former as the direct result of some cause.

Come on. Don’t roll into a conversation playing armchair expert criticizing others’ contributions when you’ve got nothing of substance to say.

You’re as capable of typing “causes of chronic depression” into a search bar as anyone else. The fact that you don’t do that indicates you don’t want to contribute. You just want to be argumentative.

Riveting discussion. How about you reply with something of substance instead of just presumptuous and pedantic quips.

It would be less misleading to also include:

> Moreover, the use of AI for purposes other than co-authoring code, tickets, emails, and so on, is discouraged but not prohibited. If you use LLMs privately to review your work, to ask questions of, to perform security analysis, and so on, and then write original code to push to SourceHut, your use-case is aligned with our policy.

I think this is more of a nitpick than anything. SourceHut is a code forge, code forges are where you store your code (and tickets). The policy going forward is a ban on using LLMs to write code (and tickets). The use cases listed there (reviewing work, asking questions, etc) are minority use cases and mostly would be unenforceable even if included in the policy.

It's not a nitpuck to me: reading the comment I replied to, I assumed I needed to cancel my Sourcehut subscription. In fact, I don't. That's a lot of information to've left out of so many pull quotes.

Your worry was that if you used AI for things other than generating code/tickets/communication/assets, that you couldn't use sourceforge?

Correct. This is specifically what covered my uses of the service:

> to review your work, to ask questions of, to perform security analysis

Not really: as far as we know, you use it for nothing; the person you replied to gave examples.

> decided to make stalking DHH into a personality/lifestyle

> When wolves get out of control, you shoot them. When gypsies take over public spaces, you deport them.

An intellectually honest guy like you is probably so furious that DHH makes a personality out of stalking entire peoples. Pathetic++, right? :^:

So, a Linux distribution.

It's a bash script over a distribution.

His rhetoric has crossed into the murdery kind, actually:

> When wolves get out of control, you shoot them. When gypsies take over public spaces, you deport them.

You don't get to make this contrast and pretend you didn't. The only way his rhetoric could be more clear is if he bought a gun and shot them himself.

It's always the same give these people enough prestige and power that they feel untouchable and their true nature comes to the surface. No more dogwhistling needed he thinks, I have powerful wealthy backers and their lawyers now.
