It is a must!
If you never question something, no matter how small or insignificant, you aren't really living but just....existing!!
Don't be a sheep like everybody else!!!

Charity will never use the money as intended, you are just making somebody more richer.
Helping people on the street gives them 100% of the money and won't make rich people richer.
Ubuntu abandoned its way years ago, closing source, centralising features under Canonical umbrella., etc.
Seeing people complaining about Ubuntu tells me more about them than the company itself.
Could never reply posts to help other unless I had done:
* 1 trip to mars
* 10 trips to the Moon
* Converted water to wine
The worst system until you can finally help others.
Also, the CICD guy from my previous job, could not answer a single question if he was unable to search there, full stop. It will be fun watching those who doesn't really know anything dragging the whole team down.
A developer girl knew more than him, and fixed problems he was unable to fix.
I've worked at Australia largest bank and airline companies, it's insane the amount of people who are either:
* Being paid to do nothing. Manager at the bank would spend whole day going from meeting to coffee then ask you if things are done already to be delivered as "his/her team"
* Are in position without qualification. They couldn't understand the basics of common sense.
The thing is, if you know somebody who knows somebody, that is it.
Now working at one of the telcos here, bro, it's pure circus.
We no longer own anything.
* From games to software is subscription based, we no longer owner anything.
* Cars are connected to the network, folks are getting their insurance increased coz the car reported erratic driving behaviour.
* Cars are bricking coz now they update like tablets, things are going sideways and require the dealer to flash them.
* You can no longer do maintenance, things are locked on purpose and only manufactures can "repair" for a few hundred dolalrs
* Personal computer as we knew it is gone, nVidia and AI made computer parts virtually impossible to buy.
If that isn't hyper controlling state, well, I am Santa Claus then.
That is just the start.
We are living:
* 2006 Idiocracy (Comedy): High IQ people no longer exists, humanity has become irrational animals.
* 2002 Equilibrium (Action): Humans must not show any signs of emotion, your kids can report you. Arts, music, anything from this world is considered crime and sent to death sentence by burned alive.
* 2004 iRobot (Action): Robots are among humans to serve us, the new models violate its laws and try to take over the world
* 1968 A Space Odyssey: The AI turns on the crew killing one by one.
Watch these movies in that sequence, be prepared to either get yours things and move to the closest cave or join SpaceX program to go to Mars.
They pretty much reflect what is happening around the world, wars, clueless people with power, AI can no longer be contained, intelligent people are not speaking out to avoid offending dumb ones, robots are very advanced, autonomous drone and what not are very advanced to name a few things going on right now.
It is insane, those are no longer movies.
You are basically installing a spyware within the most secure OS by design.
If you as an user got a Linux operating system compromised, you shouldn't be touching computer.
All those actions within my homelab are automated via Ansible and bash scripts (I only run Linux), I am only notified if something goes wrong like a backup failed.
I get it if you never worked in IT, that is fine, but you need zero AI to get the above fully automated.
Does Claude keep versioning of the changes?? I host my own repos via Forgejo, Ansible and the automation process consume the config files from there, one source of truth. If my whole setup burns with fire, I can bring everything back online from the offsite Ansible playbook located at Codeberg.
I run Proxmox LXC containers at home managed via Ansible. I used Claude to assist me getting 4 services I was not familiar with working, draft the configuration, the firewall rule so all the traffic goes via a VPN and not my home network.
2 days and got everything working.
It took away what would have taken me a week reading posts after posts. Know that it is a tool to assist you and you will learn a lot from it. Posts/forums are kind gone right now.
I know Proxmox, I know Ansible, AI takes the boring part away and you have to think twice as much, not less. It gave me suggestions I didn't know was possible, therefore, you improve your skills.
Don't be copy/paste.
We should receive the first Motorola phones compatible with GOS somewhere in 2027.
The icons do not even look remotely close to the dial-up computers.
When it disconnects, the reconnection sound is not that at all. Pages load too fast.
That automatically filters out, people with low IQ, and seeking to take advantage of the system.
Because a country has a population crisis, it should never mean open the gate for anyone. I mean, look at Europa atm, look at how beautiful is Europa as we speak after opening the gate from everybody.
Your question shouldn't even be asked, it is common sense.
At my old job, my temporary manager was the Jenkins CICD guy who knew nothing that wasn't posted at StackOverflow.
To give OP credit, the manager that was hired, knew nothing about nothing. He would take his dog for a walk during a system crash :)
The new CTO was also incompetent, he spent more time with the business team than knowing how to write a simple script.
One incompetent hired another incompetent.
The company's warehouse firewall was exposed to the internet, their response?? pfSense is safe enough :)
AI generated code, must be scanned for code quality, SAST, SCA, etc, just like a developer's code would.
It looks like they accepted AI code without verifying. Deserved!
AI bubble is already here, watch people becoming electrician/carpenters only for the AI to go sideways, then more hundreds of such workers unemployed.
Don't follow trend, look at what happened with IT and folks leaving university now can not even land job interview. Do what you love, not what it is trending.
They are using Microsoft formats instead of the open-source one.
For homelab, you are far better served buying a second hand Sophos baremetal/server rack mounted, and installing OPNSense in it.
I have a 2nd hand Sophos SG210 Rev3 from eBay, replaced the Celeron CPU with an i7 one, 16GB, new SSD, dual 10G NIC, it had been running like a dream.
You cannot reply to a post to either provide correction or solution because you don't have enough "points" to do so.
You were forced to complete an insane list of requirements just to comment. Let that sink in.
The problem is IT professionals who depend on AI for everything. That is crashing down and won't be pretty.
Also, if you use AI to write your code, you are not a developer either.
Let's say AI completely disappears right now, many of the so called "developers" are unable to write code, are unable to fix code, they cannot code.
There are two kind of developers:
1. Non-developers: Use AI for everything, to write code, to test the code, you name it.
2. Real developers: Search engines are broken right now, they use AI as a tool, as replacement for Google to ASSIST you, not to do the task for you.
As AI is falling apart and companies are hiring people back, these non-developers will find themselves out of work.
2. Companies realising that they are burning half million to get nowhere
3. Circular investment scaring investors
4. And more recently, companies hiring people back coz the AI aimed to replace humans, created more problems than solved them
5. Memory cartel falling apart, again, they did the same thing during 2000s
6. China is making good ML free, supply and demand, destroying the US tech token business model
7. Even META has too much computer power and no enough use for them.
Those are the main reasons why AI buildout is not just slowing down but falling apart faster than expected.
I bought it, turned it on and flashed it out of the box lmao
I like the idea of having their own hardware but it is not easy to get, so buying normal ones and flashing them still the best option.
I have also contributed to the OpenStreetMap by adding POI and requesting logic to be changed.
The only major issue which I got used to but sucks, is the search when it does not involved famous places or streets or both.
Streets will be shown as minor or major and alike, I do need to use Google Maps Browser version to find the place, and the on CoMaps manually navigate to said place.
But the fact that I get a map update a week, sometimes two maps update a week which other apps will take months and subscription, that alone is worth hustle.
1. The ones who use AI for everything and therefore, are unable to think on their own, unable to make decisions on their own, and everything in between.
Looking for a job will be fun because their skills now depend on AI dependency rather than skill.
2. The ones who use AI as tool and therefore, are still able to do things on their own, make decisions on their own.
Looking for a job will be just another Tuesday in the office, and were are already seeing companies hiring them back to replace AI.
I have been using it to explore trails and 4WD tracks, just enabled it on the map at the top left corner.
You will see Outdoors which enables the trails/4WD tracks, Contour Lines and Subway.
Trails and 4WD tracks have a distinctive colour semi-continue lines. I am using exactly that to discover new places and it has been awesome.
Why do you think OM user base forked and mass migrated to CoMaps?? haha
