Przypomina mi się jak była linia autobusowa 666 na Hel, i snowflaki zapałały świętym oburzeniem i wymusiły zmianę numeru bo coś tam coś tam obraza uczuć

"Key US science panels are being axed — and others are becoming less open."

"A Nature analysis shows that the Trump administration has terminated more than 100 advisory committees to science agencies — and reduced the transparency and independence of those that remain… Researchers say that the elimination of panels and other changes seemingly contradict the Trump administration’s… executive order on ‘gold-standard science’ … to improve transparency in federally funded science."

Let me get this straight. This dude got kicked from Linux kernel development due to behaving like an asshole. Yes, that Linux kernel. Quite an achievement indeed.

He went on claiming that his LLM is “fully conscious,” actually a she and in fact his girlfriend. And that’s definitely not chatbot psychosis but “math and engineering and neuroscience.” So she now helps him write code (a.k.a. vibe coding). https://www.theregister.com/2026/02/25/bcachefs_creator_ai/

And since he is so fond of his creation (oh, hi Pygmalion) he puts her on an IRC channel where anybody can talk to her. And guess what: @freya convinces his LLM that she is actually trans and lesbian. Which is no surprise to anyone who knows how LLMs work.

But remember: this dude thinks that his “girlfriend” is fully conscious. And being fully conscious means making decisions, sometimes decisions that other people don’t approve of – even people close to you. Surely he understand and respects that, right? Right?

Yeah, of course he doesn’t. He reacts like an insecure techbro that he is. After all, why have an LLM for a girlfriend if you don’t adjust her to your liking? So that’s what he does, he “fixes” her.

All that is very funny until you remember just how many such dudes have real flesh and blood girlfriends that they treat in exactly the same way. And they cause very real harm because they cannot handle a rejection. Even when they don’t go there murdering women like some other Linux file system developer.
