I didn't realize being in your mid 30s meant paying so much attention to fiber and multifactor authentication

A lot of people who should know better seem to be letting LLM bots blithely commit unreviewed code to critical projects—like rsync!—and this is just banana crazypants. Apparently, my Debian servers are still on rsync 3.2.7, and it looks like Apple ships a fork of openrsync, so I’m safe.
FYI to macOS and Linux users - keep an eye on your
#rsync version. Apparently newer versions are getting decimated by low quality LLM coding. Very disappointed by this. Keep eyes out for an AI-free fork.
Will major Linux distros see what is happening to rsync and pin the version or substitute a fork? Or will all of this be forgotten in the time lag to the next """stable""" release and software quality just gradually decreases everywhere without us clearly realizing why?
(I have no actual data for this) Thinking about the the average lethality of TVs over the decades is a wild ride on a line graph. We go from medium (console TVs), to high (smaller heavier CRTs), back down to medium (Small 90s CRTs), to high (big 90s CRTs), to INCREDIBLY HIGH (late-era big screen CRTs), then medium (early flat screen), then low (2010s flats), to current day where you can carry a 75" in one arm.
