I was responding to the following paragraph in the article:

We used to get proof-of-thought for free because producing a patch took real effort. Now that writing code is cheap, verification becomes the real proof-of-work. I mean proof of work in the original sense: effort that leaves a trail: careful reviews, assumption checks, simulations, stress tests, design notes, postmortems. That trail is hard to fake. [emphasis mine] In a world where AI says anything with confidence and the tone never changes, skepticism becomes the scarce resource.

I am a bit wary that the trail of verification will continue to be so "hard to fake".

Yeah, the transition from the third frame to the fourth frame just doesn't make sense as currently depicted; why would people playing video games suddenly start to revolt?

However, if the third frame were to depict rich men getting richer as you suggest, then the revolt in the fourth frame would make more sense.

I wonder what the fine folk of the Phoronix comment section have to say about this!

Let's check out comment #2:

Does anyone still care, besides maybe Putin? [emphasis mine]

I see...

Not to be confused with Weird AI, which is in the intersection of none of the circles.

Here I came expecting to hear from the Rust-haters and the Wayland-haters, and instead I got to hear from the MIT License-haters!

They're not assuming anything, they are doing calculus.

I find it even easier just not to do things in the first place.

And the cool thing is: not only were you able to install this 6 years ago, you were able to install it 16 years as well!

Why shouldn’t the payment processors get a say in the payments they process? Illegal or not, why should they be forced to process payments that facilitate things against their beliefs?

Because they hold an effective monopoly over the payment process.

What exactly does the statement that Linux does not already "embrace the whole hardware" mean?

Did you actually read the article? They have clearly been putting a lot of thought and care into this project.
