Off topic: this is from April 6, 2015; I'm impressed at the Elon Musk project guess. I would not discard someone's guess of some xOS appearing around 2028-2030 to quickly today .

Yeah yeah, there was also SCIgen in 2005 (when 3 MIT students submitted a fake paper and got it accepted). I believe the difference is scale. It's not just Wikipedia, it's the whole web. Billions and billions are burned (and it se

AI was over-hyped. I remember how "AI" felt like marketing bullshit at the lab when I was there between 2015 and 2020. Generative AI took it at the next level though. There is no comparison. The meaning of AI has brutally change

Today is not so bad indeed, we've seen between 1/5 and 1/3 in recent weeks. Quite the dilution. Granted, there's been a lot of releases lately. I agree that there's a lot of other stuff though, even on the worst day

I agree that maintainers should not be expected to support patched versions of their software, but as a user I like the Debian policies you call insane. I would actually pick Debian exactly because they are cautious with the dependencies.
