Domen, creator of devenv, recently added telemetry to his devenv thing, as part of adding AI to the product, and when nixpkgs contributors removed the telemetry, he reverted the change, with a self merge, without a fucking review even.

This is a clear conflict of interest. We need to stop this from happening in the NixOS organization, corpos need to have some respect for users.

As someone deeply into appliances, I hate how an entire generation of innovations is just gonna be adding pointless AI features

You know what is innovation? A cordless vacuum, a tiny oven on your counter, safety features etc… You know what is just waste of engineering hours? A fucking dishwasher that uses AI to dirty your dishes “intelligently”. I’m very open for actual innovative stuff but some of it feels absurdly tacked on and what a waste of global time and like capacity of production and labor to introduce these half baked things!

There was a time when shitty products died before being sold to consumers, investors please, stop this madness.

AI is the excuse, and the reason is layoffs increase profits in the short term, the same way pissing your pants keep you warm for 5 minutes

please kill the narrative that layoffs where because of AI stop drinking their coolaid
