Lest anybody misinterpret some of my recent posts/replies about the anger inherent in the LLM usage in open source discussions...

I am angry about data centers. I am disappointed that so many people are happily using LLM services like Claude despite all the negative impact they have.

I'm beyond angry at people passing off LLM output as their own, and having to wade through unwanted LLM output.

It feels like gasoline on the bonfire of democracy that we're all suffering through at the moment.

But I'm also just tired of people being ugly to each other. Bone-tired to my very soul at this point. Burnt crispy and running on fumes.

We are all hurting at the hands of people behind these tools and the system we're trapped in. I don't see how being ugly toward other humans trapped in the same cell is going to get us out. I just don't.

A screenshot of John Coffey from the movie "The Green Mile" Caption reads: "I'm tired, boss. Tired of bein' on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. Tired of not ever having me a buddy to be with, or tell me where we's coming from or going to, or why. Mostly I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world everyday. There's too much of it. It's like pieces of glass in my head all the time."
