OP I know you’re trying to do good, but please try to understand the vulnerability before spreading FUD

No you’re wrong. Stop dramatizing and spreading false info. From your link:

Prerequisites: Are password logins still on?

You can’t trigger this if password auth is disabled.

And 99.9% won’t have either ssh at all, or the port open, or password auth enabled.

This is a nothing burger

No thanks. I would not be able to have unemployment benefits while doing volunteer work in my country.

Technically you can, but they have to approve and it cannot compete with the “normal” job market (which it would, as open source is generally competing with proprietary software, and it’s normally my job to write software)

It’s for gameplay programming, not engine subsystems. These events must eventually be serialized (in the serializability sense, not marshaling) and handled by a single thread for the net code to work. Basically every engine does this (or risk having unreliable networking). The goal of this (last time I looked was when it was announced) is to make it easier to have distributed networking for multiplayer games.

Also building this using c++ and LLVM will result in better performance than any blueprint system can achieve.

We can hate AI and the direction of the engine but don’t just assume the devs at Epic are dumb.

Do you like having battery?

They’re an ad company

It’s hard to take such articles and papers seriously:

The Index has been classifying populist parties since 2016, defining them as groups where representing the people above the elite is “a central organising principle of their political worldview,” the author says.

So if you aren’t pro status quo you’re populist? Then the article first talks about authoritarian as if it’s the same thing. So just take the literal definition, but then group it with the usual pejorative definition of demagogy and anti democracy.

In France, they explicitly mention LFI as populist like it’s the same as the Nazis from the RN…

In Belgium, they talk about PTB as if it’s once again the same as Vlaams Belang which is a literal fascist party. But fail to mention the incredible drift of the traditionally progressive Right wing MR to populist conservative nearly far right (they literally absorbed a minor far right party’s politicians)

I’d argue the people who wrote the code for the various subsystems know more about it than the guys who “just” review and merge them.

Linus knows this codebase better than anyone alive

Does he? Is it even possible to know the entirety of the Linux kernel within one head?

Thanks for taking the time to write a complete response. I’m not pro AI but I couldn’t help but see all the responses (including to my comment) that limit the thought process to AI=slop, which completely destroys any hope of civic discourse on the subject. There are many kneejerk reactions to anything AI and thought terminating cliché that makes discussing this topic highly toxic.

I see that the topic is highly sensitive for many here, and it is best to leave this community fester on its own hatred.

They can’t afford a $5 CDN?

Thanks for proving my point

However AI bros have gone all in on feeling vindicated and feeling like Linus said the kernel should be vibe coded now.

What I saw was mainly AI haters that couldn’t form a well thought out take, saying that Linus has gone full slop and the kernel is now slop-first.
The debate was killed before even starting because one side can’t express anything other than “slop”, and refuse to hear the full arguments presented.
