Ignorance, fear, or are you just following the kid’s trend of anti-ai, pushback against corporate desperation?

It’s not realistic to expect no AI assistance in coding in 2026.
It’s also not a stand-in for a human. There’s a huge field of gray where it’s unclear how much of it was fully vibe coded vs how much is carefully hand reviewed and/or written.
I’ve been a professional developer for decades and I’ve done both. Obviously I’ve hand coded stuff for many years. The fully vibe coded stuff is personal, to test and learn the capabilities of the tech. My professional stuff I watch much more closely, and I’m much more targeted in what I’m having the AI do.
That said, if I were gonna use this I’d actually review the code. I’m not recommending this guy’s stuff, but you can’t rule it out on the basis of ai assistance alone.


Called what? That you didn’t like their use of emojis?
What does that have to do with this? You didn’t call shit.


People were playing text-based multiplayer, effectively mmos with PvP well before Tim-Berners Lee invented the Web Browser.
http://mud.arctic.org/ this one is still around.


But why? You don’t need telnet to transfer text.


I’ll always be able to play Balatro, Factorio, and he’ll, I’d go to text based MUDs first.


Like a wireless router?


Can your neighborhood communicate when the Internet goes down like Iran?


Now that’s real GDP.
On the other hand, you know the Fortran works and you can break it.
The vibe code is already broken.
I’m still pounding the Fortran button as hard as I can.


You can just have things be out of scope. It’s really okay!
Thanks for the work you’ve put into this.
The scumbag behavior is from the employer. He’s only fighting fire with fire.


Which is just as risky as instantly updating unless you’re really closely keeping an eye on which updates are security related.


Thank you!


It’s a switch. It’s clearly marked. It literally says “sponsored”.
The app didn’t seem to respect the environment variable for X11 I tried to set for that one app.
I have an odd monitor configuration, one 2k high refresh rate, HDR monitor in the center, 1080p monitors to the left, right, and above. The right is also a higher refresh rate.
I could get it to work in Ubuntu… inconsistently. Sometimes I’d log in and have one 640x480 monitor in the center. PopOS just worked.
Yeah, my monitors didn’t work under Ubuntu X11. At least on PopOS, that just worked.
I want Omnissa (VMWare) Horizon Client to support Wayland. Until then, while I have to boot into Windows for one thing, I might as well boot into Windows for everything.
Maybe next year will be the year of the Linux Desktop.
But ci/cd though
