Linux filesystem developers MUST have a pair programming session at least once a week to stave off psychosis.
Frequency of sessions MUST be increased as symptoms show or worsen.
Oh god, as if I wasn’t scared enough about running a filesystem that got kicked out of mainline and is maintained more or less by a single dude. I’ll stick to btrfs thanks
It’s not chatbot psychosis, it’s ‘math and engineering and neuroscience’

The trick is just to think of it like a junior engineer – a smart, fast junior engineer, but lacking in experience and big picture thinking.
The problem is managers genuinely starting to do that, because it’s cheaper than human employees. Some years down the line, they will find out that (unlike human junior devs) the AI won’t eventually mature into senior devs, and by the time the senior devs retire, there’s nobody left to unfuck the shit their perpetual juniors fuck up.
But of course, those managers will have gotten their nice bonus for saving money, jumped ship and will never suffer the consequences.
