Linus Torvalds: “I realize that some people really dislike AI, but this is an area where I'm willing to absolutely put my foot down as the top-level maintainer.

Linux is not one of those anti-AI projects, and if somebody has issues with that, they can do the open-source thing and fork it.

Or just walk away.” 😱

Japan develops a method to recover up to 90% of lithium from used EV batteries and it could be a major breakthrough

Given such geo politics around oil and wars causing shock for everyone, I think such development is a good thing for clean energy for all.

What do you think we should bring back from the 90s IT departments? 🤔

batshit AI crazy Microsoft says AI more expensive than human worker 😂

the current NASDAQ and S & P 500 bull run is just usual pump and dump by tech bros. If you hold any position be careful, we are heading for another DOT com style bubble crash for sure. the only winning move is not to play. 😅

Some org started rehiring junior devs because AI companies keep increasing their token costs. It is becoming cheaper to hire humans again to handle basic tasks, like aligning a button on screen, fixing typos or even performing PHP+MySQL coding.

You just have to wait until the AI bubble bursts or the VC money dries up. Approx 40% to 50% of AI data centers planned for 2026 in the U.S. are likely to be delayed or canceled as banks and VCs are refusing to provide further financing 😂

and when some old man yelled at cloud everyone ignored him but i guess he was right ... 😭

I'm 60 years old. Claude Code killed a passion https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47386813

I'm with you 100%. AI has sucked the fun out of coding and IT work. There’s no satisfaction in solving problems anymore. I'm also just a few years away from 60, so I think we are on the same page. Maybe it is fatigue, I dunno.. you tell me.

Gen AI found the biz model.

step 1: subsidize code generation so everyone forgets how to read/write code manually

step 2: many shops fire software dev and IT folks who know how to write code to save money

step 3: now charge 10x to 50x to ensure the AI generated code by that most humans largely can't understand actually works and cause outages

step 4: announce new code fix service that even cost more to fix AI mess

this is like donuts & weight loss/dietitian biz working out of same office

data destroyed by 1 yo? A new threat model unlocked 😅
