LLMs will make our jobs obsolete, you mark my words. If you don't believe me, just look at millions of truck drivers who are out of work due to the rise of self-driving cars -- just as it was predicted 10 years ago.

Nothing like spending the first really warm day of spring in your basement watching a faraway server fail to boot.

I've got the power! But there was also a loud boom, followed by an ominous flicker. It's still on, but I'm wondering if there's a blown transformer box somewhere nearby.

A joke from my 12-year-old:
Q: What is the difference between a stormtrooper and a constipated owl?
A: One shoots but can't hit, the other hoots but can't...woops, dad is listening.

Day 3 without power. :( The outage map is still looking very orange around my part of Montreal, so no saying when this will change. Sigh.

Like most of Montreal, I am without power this afternoon. Still have some juice in the laptop, but will probably have to turn off early tonight.

ChatGPT is hilariously bad at baseball rules, so I say we ban it because it's clearly unamerican.

Well, at least ChatGPT is just as wrong about this as most coaches.

> As a ‘Linux’ Foundation Fellow or a Principal Developer, taking charge of kernel.org only indirectly (a Russian person handles most of the infrastructure; someone from the Ural region), does Torvalds have much of a say on what to use for E-mail in the ‘Linux’ Foundation (using a trademark he controls)?

New level of irony -- an "IP reputation" company that has put one of our mail hosts on the "spam list" sends HTML-only mail that triggers a score of 10 from SpamAssassin.

Pet peeve -- when OS-packaged software checks for new releases (e.g. by fetching latest tags from GH) and nags you to update it. If you add this feature in, please add some kind of check to only enable it for when the end-user has control over such things (or don't add it at all, because this is always annoying).
