Anyone feel they could explain?
At least, that’s what seems to me to be the logical conclusion of what the article espouses.
I’d guess that there are instances where the author would and would not agree the line is, but I also think that the subjectives of that line is where people might take issue with this article.
I guess I just never cared to actually LEGO much with Linux.
Very interesting!
Usually I’d just self host but it’s nice having them as a hassle free option.
I’m sure there are exceptions, but one could assume that opaque systems are used as tools to encode biases that are advantageous but wrong.
These biases could have existed in code, but opaque agents give much better plausible deniability.
(Caveat here acknowledging one can often assume a lack of malice)
