no, I dont use it at all lol

Hard disagree, for the vast majority of Dev work this is not the case.

Pretty funny tbh, it is amazing these clowns have so much influence over such large investments...

We already have a no-LLM policy where I work, and we're moving faster and delivering bigger features than ever.

Indirectly is doing a lot of work there. The US is an extremely disenfranchised place, and the choices are both pro-capital and will never actually represent the people in any meaningful sense. This liberal individualism framing only serves to bolster nationalism and divide groups when what we really need to be doing is recognizing our shared goals, with "we" being the international "we", and figure out who our enemies really are.

Bold of you to assume we have any say...

Hopefully riseup can pick up some of the slack here, but more decentralized services are needed.

Equating the two seems pretty "radically centrist". Also I'm not so sure that's accurate given that the far right continues to gain legal political power in the EU (and the US for that matter).

I mean, if they relinquish their ownership of the plane and joined in with some sort of council that determined how to manage such assets I bet everyone claiming to be an anarchist would be fine with it. Anarchy as a political ideology doesn't mean no rules, it means no rulers.

Maybe for big companies that irresponsibly vendor-locked themselves, but I work at a SMB (~60 employees) and we switched to Forgejo in a couple days

We are a franchisor the owns 2 concepts, both of which are thrift stores aimed at different demographics. We write all of our software in-house and its actually a surprisingly "fun" context.

The business had pretty questionable (read: bad) software for a long time, then came under new management a few years ago. I joined just under two years ago and since then we've been modernizing the code with an eye to move it off of the in-store servers its running on currently and into the cloud. That is complicated by the fact that the franchisees are not used to certain things, like really needing to have reliable internet with a failover, so we've had to (or had the opportunity) do some serious hardening on the in-store servers and how we deploy software to them. We've switched them all to immutable OSes, added a bunch of telemetry, and added some new services that are slowly eating the old ones' responsibilities and will be much easier to move to the cloud.

Also the winters are ok but not as nice as they used to be. I grew up here so I remember when they were extremely snowy and I miss that, now they're fairly grey and mild.

Where I work we actively ban LLM use in development. We're hiring too so if you're willing to live in Salt Lake City...

Same here! The slight difference being I'll just do something else for money and code purely for fun if hand written code stops being economically viable. I'll highly confident that won't happen though.

Happier everyday to completely avoid this cognitohazard. I'm lucky to be on a team with a no-LLM policy too!

Despite that, some other parts of the business are trying their hands at playing slop slots...
