Don't follow meI don't write anything interesting

@conservancy I'm going to state this very clearly:

Projects/communities have an absolute right to exclude people whose behaviors they deem unethical, unsafe, or hostile from participation.

And deeming LLM-gen-AI use as unethical is a completely reasonable position.

If reviewing code is harder than writing it, and you use AI to generate code you couldn't write yourself, you're neither the programmer nor the reviewer.

You're a rubber duck with merge permissions.

one of the things i tell students in my Programming Languages classes to motivate interest in the "theory side" is that it's both possible and useful to have implementation-independent definitions of programs. you don't need subscription access to expensive GPUs; you don't even need silicon and transistors! as long as you can write and think, you can compute, and no one can ever take that away from you. this is increasingly non-obvious to the average CS major.

As I typed the word
“trillionaire”
the program underlined it
with a bright red line
as if it refused to believe
it was a real thing,
and as I stared
at that underlined word
I sympathized,
as I also wanted
to refuse to believe
it was a real thing.
From: Gergely Nagy <redacted> To: <conservancy's email address> Cc: <myself> Subject: Revoking my copyright assignment --text follows this line-- Hi! Way back in 2015 September, as part of the Copyright Aggregation Project by Debian and the Software Freedom Conservancy, I transferred my past and future copyrights on programs controlled by the Debian Project to the Software Freedom Conservancy. I sent a photo of the signed paperwork on September 28th, 2015, in an email with the message-id: <[email protected]>, and received a countersigned reply on the 30th, in an email with message-id: <[email protected]>. I hereby revoke my copyright assignment for future contributions to Debian. I do so because our values no longer align, and I cannot, in good conscience, let the copyright assignment remain in effect. Even if I have not contributed to Debian in years, even if the chance of doing so remains small, it's not zero, and when I do, I will **NOT** contribute and have the copyright be assigned to an organization that failed miserably to stand up against the LLM plague. I do not know what's the process here, if I need to send any signed papers or such. If I do, please send me a template I can fill out. For the record, since the original agreement was signed (attached, for reference), I have moved, and no longer reside at "[old address]", my current address is "[new address]". The revocation of my copyright assignment (and anything and everything else covered by the original agreement) should be effective as of today, June 18 2026. Regards, -- Gergely Nagy
personally i think it was a mistake to take the greatest advancement in sharing information humans have come up with since the invention of written language and pollute it with rancid garbage like this, making it completely impossible to use effectively
i just want to live in a world where people take care of each other, and it saddens me that i know i never will
This FTC lawsuit against WPATH shows how anti-trans institutions rely on each other for circular validity. NHS cites Hungary and Finland to commission the Cass report. Cass gets cited by the FDA. FDA cited by the NHS for pullback jusitifications. FTC cites FDA and NHS for some semblance of international standards. Supreme Court cites Hungary, Finland, and NHS. All the while the reports they produce just cast doubt on existing evidence and institutions, providing no substantial fact in opposition

Fix this code.

The history of stupidly-effective LLM guardrail jailbreaks is nearly indistinguishable from shit my kid would try 😋

Petition to change the “getting hit by a bus” expression to “getting hit by an SUV” – both because it’s more realistic, and also because public transit deserves better!
