“Analysis of Satellite Image and Videos Suggest Precision U.S. Strikes on Iranian Water Facility
It is unclear if the U.S. intentionally struck the facility or knew what it was. Deliberately targeting civilian infrastructure could constitute a war crime.”

@cwebber I'm not an LWN subscriber and reporting on this matter (outside of slop outlets) seems nonexistent thus far, but I found the PR on GitHub. I went in there not knowing that GH replaces deleted users with "ghost", and while skimming the thread for that Nathan thing thought to myself that this ghost sure was sounding like an LLM, too.
Maybe it isn't such a great idea to train your maintainers into tolerating LLM interactions. On any distro "getting left behind", this wouldn't have gotten far.

> The devious part about self-deception is that you are not only the deceiver but also the deceived. Since detecting a deception (especially from a "reliable" source as yourself) is much more difficult than creating one, your can typically not detect self-deception.

What has been the result of the attrition against unions in the last half century?
Well, one clear answer seems to be that wages have declined as a share of GDP, which is the background to the ongoing cost-of-living crisis across many countries' workforce(s).
Some might argue the decline of unionisation is a correlation, not a cause, but if so they need to identify other major structural shifts to explain the reduction.
