Because a LOT of people are missing the point:

No, Elon Musk is NOT serious about putting a million data centres into orbit. It can't work: laws of physics say "nope".

But SpaceX is expected to go public this year.

Elon is talking up his company's future prospects in front of gullible investors because he needs a growth narrative beyond Starlink, which is already priced in. Something to justify the Starship proram beyond NASA's lunar ambitions.

So it's salesman's bullshit, lies for fools.

First actual agent-assisted review with "b4 review tui":

https://lore.kernel.org/tools/20260201-sceptical-resolute-curassow-43ab98@lemur/T/#t

Screencast of the whole process, using issues identified by "claude code" and rolling them into the TUI:

(Lots of refinements still needed, but it's doing useful things, at least.)

@jani if you are happy with your workflow, then I obviously don't want to interfere with it. However, I'm hoping this will help others, plus it can integrate with agent-assisted reviews (not yet done).

Here's a prototype of "b4 review" with a nicer textual ui. What do you think?

Greg Kroah-Hartman, Fellow at the The Foundation!

We could think of no one more deserving of this Award than Greg - who has ensured through maintaining of different kernel subsystems and the Linux kernel stable releases that thousands of devices function seamlessly and securely.

Managed to work on `b4 review` today. It's almost usable now, just not sure the git-rebase like interface is all that user-friendly.

But it should make it possible to quickly review patch series, send trailers, and even annotate code.

We had a fruitful discussion about mail hosting options on the users list, so I documented it here:

Might be useful to others.

Heh, I think someone tried to scam me by pretending to be from TD Canada Trust and claiming to verify a line of credit application. However, the "agent" insisted on only speaking Russian with me, even after I pretended that I don't speak it very well (it was very sus already, but some banks do have Russian-speaking support agents).

Anyway, checking my credit monitoring services shows no inquiries about any lines of credit and my credit is still locked with the usual Canadian agencies. I'm a little unnerved, but I think it was just a drive-by cold attempt without even really trying very hard.
