Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

It turns out we didn't need that list of AI-corrupted open source projects after all...
At this rate it's actually going to be easier to make a list of projects that don't have AI...
Systemd and libuv now on the slop hype train
Jesus.
I've been advocating for a hall of fame of projects that explicitly reject LLMs; ctrl+f "Gentoo" on this very comment thread for the few examples I heard about.
~~Eh, straight pip with venv and pip-tools for support worked fine anyway.~~ wrong uv!
As for systemd... time to look at the BSDs? Was Debian among the anti-slop projects? Would be nice if they took an interest in preventing the slopification of one of their core system.
Different UV! Libuv is the event loop/scheduler that powers node.js. could be a funky new way to compromise a whole bunch of node applications
Edit: typo - although "nose applications" being compromised sounds bad too.
Ah, thanks! My expectations of node aren't much affected I guess. Bun.js maybe?
libuvis a very common way to get a portable event loop. If you're logged into GH and can use their search then you can look at the over fifty packages in nixpkgs depending on it. I used it when I developed (the networking and JIT parts of) the reference implementation for Monte, to give a non-nixpkgs example.
