@prologic@twtxt.net That’s an interesting premise in that article:

The fun has been sucked out of the process of creation because nothing I make organically can compete with what AI already produces—or soon will.

This is like saying it’s pointless to make music yourself because some professional player/audio engineer does a better job. Really, there’s always someone or something that’s better than you at a particular job.

If we focus too much on “competition”, then yes, you can just stop doing anything. I don’t know how common this mindset is, especially among artists or creative people. 🤔 I would have assumed that many writers, for example, simply enjoy the process of writing. Am I being too naive once more? 🤣

Éoliennes Orsted vs. Tractor Supply : subventions à pertes vs. profits sans subventions

Dernièrement, l’annonce de l’abandon d’un projet d’éoliennes à proximité de Grande-Bretagne montre l’ampleur des déceptions dans le secteur.

A brief history of the BSD Fast FileSystem
We’re looking at an article from 2007 here, but I still think it’s valuable and interesting, especially from a historical perspective. I first started working on the UNIX file system with Bill Joy in the late 1970s. I wrote the Fast File System, now called UFS, in the early 1980s. In this article, I have written a survey of the work that I and others have done to improve the BSD file systems. Much of this research has been incorporated into other … ⌘ Read more
