What the actual fuck, Guardian.

Did the headline change? The current headline is Torvalds: "100% of Their Code is Written by Compilers" Too

The title of this post makes for a dumb headline, at any rate. Linus, in response to claims in the industry that projects are now "99% written by AI", drew an analogy to compilers by saying that all machine code for projects are written by compilers, yet no one says their project was 100% written by a compiler. It's just talking about stupid hype, which is valid.

That being said, it's still quite unfortunate that Linus has fallen into the trap of LLMs.

Umm I use Jira and Confluence on Firefox every day without issue. Not sure what you're talking about. The only time I've ever had to use Chrome in my professional career were certain tools that require chrome dev tools. Otherwise, it's Firefox for everything.

This is what happens when you don't take a stand against this shit. He brought it on himself.

Yes. They are con artists with a proven track record of lying and stealing. We shouldn't take anything they say seriously, especially when the reporting reads much more like marketing rather than an incident report.

Am 35, just started getting into birdwatching. Weird how true this is.

It doesn't need nearly as many. AI inference is orders of magnitude more expensive than a single search query (ignoring the fact that Google does it's own inference with search queries now). And that doesn't even include training, which is stupidly expensive to do.

That's not lying. There's nothing linguistic about numerical computation.
