@val J'ai effacé l'URL vite fait à coup de gomme magique sur mon tel, je pense que ça a fait des artéfacts + c'est le zoom numérique "IA" de l'appareil qui invente des trucs.

"Any winning left politics should 'consistently embrace a populism that decries a rigged economy where hard work fails to yield a stable middle-class life'."

Which is why this "left (affordability) populism" is a mirage: "hard work" leading to a "stable middle class life" is a rich-country-myth!

@marcoarment Woo, German! And it works as a dictation language! Would love to help you revise the translations. (I have a PhD in German literature studies, if that qualifies 🤓 And I’m already on TestFlight.)

uuuugggghhh, this is a bit late, but I haven't seen any posts about it... apparently Incus and IncusOS, both of which had a zero-tolerance policy toward LLM use, "now tolerate the use of [LLM] tools"

The change to their contributor guidelines was committed on June 16, which was included in release notes for Incus 7.2 and Incus 7.0.1 LTS.

https://linuxcontainers.org/incus/docs/main/contributing/introduction/#for-contributions

https://github.com/lxc/incus/commit/54bae0e4d4eabfe0f1a1127b5fb0dfc986720654

Most of the new policy elaborates on the idea that code should be "submitted by human beings" (submitted) who "fully own their contribution" (lol) and are "able to reason about it [and] explain why things were done a particular way".

You know, "responsible" vibecoding, a thing that totally exists... assuming you can ignore the myriad ecological/social/legal/technical/etc issues related to the production and use of LLMs, you're cool with using fashtech, and you want to pretend that all your contributors are immune to use case creep, deskilling, hype, "ai" psychosis, etc.

1/🤮

#incus #incusos #slop #slopware #vibecoding

We get the typical "slop can be good sometimes" for a vaguely defined set of use cases...

"AI tools can sometimes be beneficial, particularly when it comes to finding patterns among a large data set (entire code base), performing tedious repetitive changes or large refactoring/re-organization."

and also this gem...

"AI tools are treated the same as traditional tooling like sed, awk or coccinelle."

which is a reversal of how they treated LLMs in their previous "No Large Language Models (LLMs) or similar AI tools" statement:

"All contributions to this project are expected to be done by human
beings or through standard predictable tooling
[...]
LLMs and similar predictive tools have the annoying tendency of
producing large amount of low quality code with subtle issues which end
up taking the maintainers more time to debug than it would have taken to"

Maybe they conflated "predictable tooling" with "predictive tools" (already a slightly sinister framing).

And I guess subtle code issues are no longer a concern, since they're only suggesting that LLMs are useful for "boring grunt work" like (checks notes) "large refactoring" 🤦‍♀️ well, I'm sure the subtle issues will never slip past review.

2/🤡

They state that LLMs "must abide by our instructions (AGENTS.md)".

Of course, we have uncountable examples of "guardrails" being trivially circumvented, both intentionally and unexpectedly. As @olivia, Marcela Suarez, and @Iris say in Towards Critical Artificial Intelligence Literacies:

"Guardrails may seem sensible, giving the impression of responsibility, but critical computational thinking through formal analyses reveal they are unimplementable."

https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17786243

And as @davidgerard recently reported, it seems that AGENTS.md files don't do much beyond giving a pseudo-IaC aesthetic to your "make no mistakes" prompts.

https://pivot-to-ai.com/2026/08/27/your-agents-md-file-doesnt-actually-do-anything/

Hilariously, their AGENTS.md includes a legal section with the impossible prompts...

"All contributions to this repository must be compatible with the Apache 2.0 license [...] contributions cannot include code licensed under the terms of the GPL, AGPL or LGPL licenses."

Other sections include a few formatting and testing/validations prompts.

Federal officials take aim at Rose City Antifa in A/I Collective announcement

https://www.koin.com/news/oregon/federal-officials-take-aim-at-rose-city-antifa-in-a-i-collective-announcement/

> A joint action this week by the U.S. Treasury and the U.S. Secretary of State takes aim at far-left groups, including Portland’s own Rose City Antifa. Also known as A/I Collective, the organization provides free email, blog and website hosting to leftist activists—including Rose City Antifa, according to the State Department.

@tcit C'est moi ou le texte des titres d'onglets est bizarre ? "Portail" est à moitié transformé en "Rertail"

I've certainly considered it. but I struggle for time every single day, and that would be too much of a temptation. so I'd start mostly ignoring it in self defense, and then I'd be back where I started. so I go for occasional manual visits to see what catches my attention. it's not ideal, but it's what more-or-less works under persistent information overload 😞

@ashwin @PentUp @freshstart

Is it more than that one post? Because that post is really "it can be useful" which, even if true, doesn't advance much of an argument.

In particular, I'd be interested to read your counterfactual on the legal and environmental aspects, please.
