OpenBSD is great, Linus seems to be in the early stages of AI psychosis so now's a god time to jump ship.

I don't say that lightly either. The most recent debate about whether LLMs should be allowed to write the commit messages in the mailing list implies to me he's losing the plot. People attached to these things will get very defensive of them even in situations that seem antisocial (should the LLMs be allowed to write emails and commit messages for instance).

Sad to see it happen but best to spend our efforts elsewhere.
