Similar to anti-AI derangement

It really is an odd feeling to be in between the 2 extremes

The problem is that both camps take their positions as religious righteousness, which lobotomizes their abilities to have productive, pros and cons discussions about matters at hand.

The internet/apps of the last 20 years have not exactly boosted people's ability to think critically and set aside their passions though.

Much easier to keep eyeballs glued and sell them ads if you encourage their baser impulses.

This isn't a hedge at all. There is likely an English mistake/misinterpretstion being made here. I am a native English speaker btw.

Do you believe the comments in this GitHub issue are acceptable social discourse towards an open source maintainer?

The first comment, which is a screenshot from Mastodon, is perfectly acceptable. There is a clear regression between newer versions of rsync.

Then egos got bruised and things leave the realm of reason soon after. But coming with a request saying "Version X worked while version Y doesn't", with maybe some degree of annoyance, is fine.

This anti-AI hysteria is just such a classic moral panic. It’s just 1) identify something as AI-produced 2) attack and ostracize anyone who might be involved in that production And as with all moral panics, whether (1) is factual is totally beside the point. The point is the almost sexual release you get from (2). I know in this case there is AI-produced code in rsync (as there is with most useful software by now), b…

It’s tough to take your response seriously with loose thinking like “The point is the almost sexual release you get from (2).” Upon further reading, you use emotional language too - “witch-hunt” and “hysteria”. Are these witch-hunts? And can you tell if people over the internet are nearing sexual release? Are you responding to emotional language and other’s loose thinking with your own?

The way it is done with meme pictures is bizarre. The language used is the same that Tridgell knows from the LKML, so that is not the primary concern. How are maintainers supposed to know that users don't trust AI if no one voices that concern? rsync was very stable. Should people silently move to Openrsync and never say anything?

yes, you should, you have no say in how people develop their software. submit a bug report if you like, but keep your opinion away from issue trackers.

I agree. Like everything else open source, fork it if you’ve got a problem with it. Vote with your code.

The author shared the code with the world. No part of that gives the world a vote in how the author chooses to maintain it.
