Anthropic or not, the recent streak of supply chain and also targeted attacks got me packing into VM.
Now I run all devtools and install packages only inside the VM and either connect Zed / VSCode via ssh or run terminal ide inside the VM.
No host mounts whatsoever, all communication Host to Guest strictly through git.
I have a few examples of people replaced by AI.
Photoshop slop cheap ads on the streets and TV are mostly AI slop now.
Content creators, publishers, media, music industries are all heavily affected.
The company I know paid $2K for wireframe UX design instead of standard $10K UX + UI. UI part was done by AI ($8K in human labor was replaced by AI)
I know a few companies stuck with ancient software that have been paying salaries to generations of programmers, this software is being replaced by AI, quite fast too.
I know positions which are in essence “receive a fax and type it into the system” right now being replaced by AI.
This is neither pro- nor anti- AI stance. Saying that a chatbot will ultimately replace humans is lying — they need to justify trillions in valuations.
Saying that AI is not severely changing our society is ignorance and head in the sand tactics.
The majority of Internet traffic are bots. I’m terrified of the upcoming elections with all the deepfakes and bot campaigns.
People should not reinvent the wheel. FOSS Android has already solved many problems which Linux always will have, by design.
Non-preemtive scheduler which doesn’t take app usage into account will drain battery fast. Non-managed app platform is always a security risk.
The absence of a single app framework will always lead to a zoo. Any average Gnome installation bring all KDE and vise versa because different apps use different GUI and Desktop convenience libraries.
Google is trying to kill Android by moving more and more core functionality from OSS into proprietary services.
We need to fight back through forks and legislations. Android has started as a Linux phone 15 years ago? And has already solved a ton of inherent problems.
You can visit these online stores yourself and search for military uniforms, tactical backpacks, drone parts.
