@monsieuricon xkcd nicely pointed out silliness of usual password approaches - difficult for us to remember, easy for machines to break: https://xkcd.com/936

Updating my CV, collecting references, debt register extract, salary details and writing motivation letter. People do crazy stuff to get a nice apartment in Switzerland.

I would also dare to add β‚Ώ (BTC) to above equations for greater impact. Let's think big! :)

I love it. And think how many other equations and laws of physics can be improved with adding AI. Ohm's law? Dude, please, I = (V + AI) / R. Newton's second law? Easy peasy, F = m * a * AI. Maxwell equations - don't get me even started...

@conor no, it was sent only to me, not to public lists, for some reason. And I don't know the license now. Is it GPL?
The code looks like a very good template, with comments what has to be added and checked to match real DTS.

> [2]: Snippet created with the assisstance of GPT-4

So it began...

That was quite nice Devicetree source snippet. Can be entirely incorrect though, just looks good.

@sj Unfortunately people in general: don't run checkpatch, don't read Submitting Patches doc, don't read other relevant docs, don't build test on many setups, don't test patches (in case of DT bindings). Sure, I can add one more doc for them to ignore :)

@ljs @conor That's a good habit, I have the same, but we still can forget it from time to time. The point is not to be offended when someone tells me to compile the code or to run checkpatch.pl.

@conor Indeed. I refurbished a bit my templates and added more personal-like-phrases. Maybe I need to work on them a bit more... But I am also not a native English speaker, so I don't know how to exactly write a really nice message which will be kind but not exaggerated, so silly. I bet if I write "Please be so kind and use scripts/checkpatch.pl." there will be a person who will feel mocked by this.

In a perfect world, I would have enough of time and energy to give every patch submitter personalized review, with a touch and nice words. I remember the times when I got one patch per week for my subsystem. Now, with like 600 patches and replies to me per week, I cannot. Reviewers are scarce and day has only 24h.

Unfortunately many issues are the same and do not require me, but ChatGPT. I figured out solution for all such trivialities: review templates.

But now, it's the second time submitter felt offended that I gave too obvious advice for an issue. What to do then? I will not write hundred times "please run checkpatch.pl", it's just waste of my time.

@klausman @kernellogger The commit pointed by bisect might not be the real cause. Issue can be triggered by enabling via CONFIG change or just be interacting with something else. What now? Investigate the commit. It might tell you next steps...
Another solution could be to do second bisect - which second commit brought the issue when testing without the first one (then just remember to mark with git bisect good/bad proper commits).

BTW, above proverb in Polish is a bit more drastic: "Pierwsze koty za pΕ‚oty", so literally: "The first cats over the fence". :)

My bedroom has a view on few trees with three young squirrels, jumping, running and foraging every morning. I bet I would not have done any work there... Squirrels are too addictive.

This is a regular reminder that Russian military is still dropping high-yield explosives onto Ukrainian homes, killing women and children.

This is not f'n okay.

They have taken me by surprise. If I knew, I would put a bit different t-shirt on me.

@monsieuricon If few years ago all patch discussions and development processes were moved to Twitter, the problem with such discussions would be solved now. We lost our chance.

Few more points to add to my own notes about handling kernel maintainership: https://lwn.net/Articles/926240/
Now my maintainer howto/reference guide has exactly 4 pages. Not bad. Still shorter than my 23-pages long guide on Swiss taxes...

Not again.... "5.4.5 Daily user sending quota exceeded." So it is a 24-hour moving window.
