    So many great discussions at All Systems Go! Having a really good time and wishing I&amp;#39;d gone in prior years. Looking forward to day 2!

    @fwilhe@social.tchncs.de Nice to meet you as well! Happy to hear what you think of bootc. I definitely bumped up more decent systemd-boot support in ostree in my queue after all this...

    I have to point out the benchmarks in this patch successfully check that the redundant cycles are removed in the cyclic redundancy check: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiggers/linux.git/commit/?h=crypto-pending&amp;amp;id=84004e2996a00fdf527d9269fe33c0b254427f1f

    In a conversation today, Unix signals came up and I have to say, https://github.com/vorner/signal-hook/ is just beautiful, excellent code.

    I know this has already gone around a lot on social media but I completely agree with https://fly.io/blog/youre-all-nuts/ I only dug into agentic AI coding assistance relatively recently (currently using https://block.github.io/goose/) and am starting to fine tune and it can do some astounding things. I am now joining those folks wondering what the heck things are going to be like in two years if things proceed at this pace.

    Just to note this for the record: if I could: I would un-invent LLMs. There&amp;#39;s some amazing things possible with them (and to be clear I use them every day), but like many technologies they acts as an accelerator for good *and* bad things - and some of the latter are quite bad indeed. But obviously we can&amp;#39;t uninvent them and banning is not practical. So now it&amp;#39;s about best practices, some of which should become regulations.
