Nope. I don't think I'll ever switch back (or to anything else). Nix is awesome.

No science, no meme, only the flimsiest strawman I've ever seen and pure bigotry.
Edit: from a brand new account. How courageous, lmfao
Define "inside me"
Awesome, thanks!
And yeah, for sure. If anything, those people want to be the GFCF from Surface Detail, not the Culture; they just want the shiny toys.
Do you have a link to that Iain M. Banks post?
His work made me extremely optimistic about the future at a time where I really needed it, and is what got me to enroll in an AI-centered study course (thank fuck I dropped out and enrolled in something else).
I have so many feelings on this.
Their marketing department does a phenomenal job of blurring the line between show and reality. I have no trouble believing that this coin is "real".
With how depressingly close especially the latest season has been to reality, I am utterly convinced that (without spoiling anything) they will intentionally end this season at a point that allows them to wait and see what chaos the US elections will bring with them, and to then incorporate that into the final season.
Kinda off topic I guess but w/e.
AKA move my entire Arch setup to Nix during exams
I was fully on board until, like, a year ago. But the more I used it, the more obviously it came undone.
I initially felt like it could really help with programming. And it looked like it, too - when you fed it toy problems where you don't really care about how the solution looks, as long as it's somewhat OK. But once you start giving it constraints that stem from a real project, it just stops being useful. It ignores constraints (use this library, do not make additional queries, ...), and when you point out its mistake and ask it to to better it goes "oh, sorry! Here, let me do the same thing again, with the same error!".
If you're working in a less common language, it even dreams up non-existing syntax.
Even the one thing it should be good at - plain old language - it sucks ass at. It's become so easy to spot LLM garbage, just due to its style.
Worse, asking it to proofread a text for spelling and grammar mistakes, but to explicitly do not change the wording or style, there's about a 50/50 chance it will either
- change your wording or style, or
- point out errors that are not even in the original text in the first place!
I could honestly go on and on, but what it boils down to is: it is able to string together words that make it sound like it knows what it is doing, but it is just that, a facade. And it looks like for more and more people, the spell is finally breaking.
Yeah. I've had zero problems hosting my mail on a bare metalachine in a datacenter. They arrive just like they should, plus it's just so freeing to host it yourself.
(Actually, the only time I've been able to fully let go and scream while crying as an adult was when just so happening to be next to a torrendous river. I could not possibly scream loud enough to be heard by anyone. It is so freeing to just scream everything off your soul. 10/10 would recommend. Sorry for kinda off-topic.)
