Happy independence day to the colonies! We're totes over it it's completely fine and we like didn't really want you anyway so it's cool totally totally

Mature cheddar is life

We do memory mapping

@vbabka does memory napping

we are not the same

Feel emotional, last day at Oracle done.

It was my dream job, literally being paid to do my hobby full time.

I had incredible freedom to do whatever I wanted upstream for nearly 2 years straight.

I worked with some intensely smart people like Liam Howlett and Matthew Wilcox (two memory management legends) among many other great people.

I went from a hobbyist to a core kernel maintainer with many varied contributions throughout mm.

It was a great team to be part of and I'm very grateful to have had the opportunity.

With that said, I'm very excited about what comes next!

I will remain focused on upstream and my core mm maintainership continues :)

More on that shortly!

when you remove the snare stupidity it's just a banging track you were right @lkundrak

Last day at $CURRENTJOB!

Well that'll help calm my nerves + sleep!

It's funny people absolutely ripped the shit out of St. Anger when it came out all those years ago, but it's full of great tracks with an unfortunately snare effect (lol).

And it's better than any of the albums since!

I'm happy James sobered up but it definitely took something from the music, unfortunately!

It's a fucking good track I'm sorry not sorry https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pf0rZip-_HI

Well seems @gregkh and I are in agreement on this issue so that's lifted my mood rather :)

Well it seems my participation in that discussion was as much of a giant waste of time as the rest of my attempts to talk sense about AI

[$] Two LLM-assisted memory-management patch sets

The kernel community (like many other free-software projects) has recently seen a large influx of patches developed with the assistance of large language models (LLMs). Those patc [...]

When I first pushed back on randomly putting LLM configs in the kernel, I was excluded from the conversation.

Then when further discussion was had about it, I was excluded from the conversation.

Then when I submitted a proposal to the maintainer's summit about AI, I was rejected and excluded from the conversation there.

And when documentation was submitted to the kernel, my feedback was ignored and I was excluded from that conversation too.

There was literal press about Linus calling me an idiot for it.

When I pushed back on a person lying about using LLMs to generate code, I was attacked and contradicted and forced to concede the discussion.

And recently, in yet another discussion about LLMs in the kernel, I was excluded from that too.

At each point I've had to fight to have my point of view heard.

It feels like many people in the kernel community just want to stick their head in the sand about AI slop.

But it's not magically going away. Ignore me all you want.

What the fuck is Benecio del Toro wearing here??

Very distracting
