    For-profit cororate tech: Goes down all the time and horifically inefficient despite having trillions to throw at R&D

    Some random critical infrastructure open source project with three maintainers basically working for free: The most goddamn robust and optimized code to ever touch your silicon.

      The difference is passion. Big tech has soul-crushed, overworked, 9-to-5-ers who just want to do the time in their cubicle and go home. There are some passionate people there, but they are scarce and growing scarcer. The open source project has passionate people who just want to deliver the best product they can.

    Another once upon a lifetime problem on big plataforms…

    How odd is this became more and more frequent since corporations did massive layoffs and start to use IA

      Yes.

      But I heard that in just a few billion more dollars the AI will be better than veteran humans at site reliability engineering, in spite of l the evidence, and the laws of physics.

      I really liked having an Internet where some stuff worked.

      But I’m glad to be here, where we’re building our own Internet, with blackjack and hookers.

        I wonder what would happen if these SRE AI tools get full access to prod to “detect and fix” issues.

      That’s weird. Relevance and Popularity are the only sorting options on mobile in the official app. How not useful or specific at all.

    I thought it was just my out of date revanced patch. Guess I didn’t need to upgrade it after all. But it’s good I did anyways.

    I thought it was related to the revanced gms thing, but the problem is still there. You can get to your history though.
