Yeah, I belatedly realised that.

Apparently Debian ranks lower than the distros that are based on it.

What ranking are you using to arrive at this conclusion?

So … a company that despite decades of effort, can’t make a competitive web browser with all the help in the world, is now going to distract itself with even more non-essential rubbish with absolutely zero chance of success … can’t wait to hear what the excuse is going to be when this CEO leaves to pursue other opportunities.

Meanwhile the Assumed Intelligence Ponzi scheme will have collapsed, taking with it a significant portion of the economy, let alone the ICT industry.

This timeline needs some tweaking…

Build a website on your preferred platform, you’re already using WP.

Create a static version of it. There’s plugins for exactly that purpose.

Put the static files on a web host, I use s3, but you can use whichever you prefer.

When you update the site on WP, run the static extraction again and update your actual site.

This is the job for the OS.

You can run most Linux systems with stupid amounts of swap and the only thing you’ll notice is that stuff starts slowing down.

In my experience, only in extremely rare cases are you smarter than the OS, and in 25+ years of using Linux daily I’ve seen it exactly once, where oomkiller killed running mysqld processes, which would have been fine if the developer had used transactions. Suffice to say, they did not.

I used a 1 minute cron job to reprioritize the process, problem “solved” … for a system that hadn’t been updated for 12 years but was still live while we documented what it was doing and what was required to upgrade it.

Linux aggressively caches things.

4 GB of RAM is not running out of memory.

If you start using swap, you’re running into a situation where you might run out of memory.

If oomkiller starts killing processes, then you’re running out of memory.

No, “the due and payable” kind.

I suspect that the house of cards will come tumbling down as soon as one of the companies in this massive Ponzi scheme fails to pay their bill.

So the net of obligation, ownership and mutually assured destruction continues to tighten?

At some point this is going to explode … right?

… and anyone else who should not have access to your data.

And now you know why you should encrypt your data on any cloud provider.

I wonder … will it be another case of “Too Big To Fail” … or will it be … “Let The Market Decide”?

I’m guessing the answer depends on how many medals the CEO of Oracle can bestow upon the Orange.

Me … cynical … no … just been here for a while.

?

Why type uptime when w is sufficient?

Wow, that’s some serious misinformation.

Nothing says “I don’t care about my data.” more than the examples in the screenshot.

What happens when two different files in different directions have the same name?

I’ll add it to the list:

• AI is Assumed Intelligence.
• AI is autocorrect on steroids.
• AI is a Dunning-Kruger accelerator.
• AI is a classic case of Gell-Mann amnesia.

What you’re describing is a general experience with LLM, not limited to the C-level.

If an LLM sprouts rubbish you detect it because you have external knowledge, in other words, you’re the subject matter expert.

What makes you think that those same errors are not happening at the same rate outside your direct personal sphere of knowledge?

Now consider what this means for the people around you, including the C-level.

Repeat after me, AI is Assumed Intelligence and should not be considered anything more than autocorrect on steroids.

Well, unless it came back in the last 25 minutes, it’s working fine in Western Australia.

I’m guessing that the answer to that is … as soon as openai collapses … hopefully.
