Don't let a tool alter your power of decision making. Your ability to make those comes from your lived experiences. You observe and decipher the world around you every waking moment.
Every small and big choice you make is guided by the sum of knowledge AND real-world interactions that happened in your life exactly a moment before you made that choice. Giving up that agency is deeply and structurally troublesome.
Speaking as the Krita maintainer, I don’t want us to accept any LLM-generated code into Krita. Some may say, as long as the contributor understands the code it’s fine, but that’s a fallacy. No programmer really fully understands the code they are working with (otherwise bugzilla would be empty); but with LLM-generated code they haven’t even put any thought into it.

LinkedIn Is Illegally Searching Your Computer. Microsoft is running one of the largest corporate espionage operations in modern history https://browsergate.eu/

Now is the time to get organized!
if people stopped giving all these corporations their age or id/kyc info and just canceled their subscriptions or accounts for 4 months we'd see how fast they stop asking once those next quarter results show up.
governments would wake up pretty fast with less VAT, GST, and Tax revenue, too. you give them an inch and they will take a mile. cut that inch and cut their source of revenue, and they will all fall in line.
that is the only solution to all these stupid laws.
The person with 2 years of food storage and no relationships is less resilient than the person with 2 months of storage and a neighborhood that gives a shit about each other.
