There are risks, experts say…
Why do you need a text editor? Just use radiation to bit flip the memory into the configuration you need.
bcachefs had it coming!


Maybe I’m old, but I completely agree with you. There is a natural tendency to try reinvent something when you don’t understand it enough to be comfortable with it. Then that new thing lacks the maturity and scrutiny that the old thing went through to survive the test of time. This is basically how overconfident tech bros are transforming the web.
Most people have bad taste. Most developers are not able to discern quality from bullshit. You see it every day. People enslaved by the news, by religion, by politics. OpenClaw is a fad like most of the other garbage out there. It uses 1000x the tokens of a normal AI user so obviously the AI wholesalers are paying attention. They want AI adoption and to maximize token usage. Remember the crypto bros punting web 3.0 as the world changing idea of the century? Well now it’s easy to see that was garbage and it will be easy to see this paradigm of giving an insecure system access to all your shit is a bad idea in the near future.
