We’ll here’s a lecture by Peter Thiel basically saying “competition might be good for society but being a monopoly is good for business”. Ghoul says it openly.

Great explanation. Thanks.

People should understand that words like “unaware” or “overconfident” are not even applicable to these pieces of software. We might build intelligent machines in the future but if you know how these large language models work, it is obvious that it doesn’t even make sense to talk about the awareness, intelligence, or confidence of such systems.

In my experience, the only quirk of arch is its installation. pacman and the AUR are great and I really did not have any issues with stability. First time I tried arch I used a tiling window manager, custom menu bars and all that “hackerman” stuff, which was not stable at all and forced me to reconfigure and tweak my machine all day every day. Now I am using a full blown Gnome desktop environment and it is rock stable. My only wish is to have an /etc directory just like Intel Clear Linux.
