From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Man, that's a shame

It's one thing to think AI is good. It's another to call others stupid for rejecting it

He's not calling people stupid for not using it, he's calling people that call for blanket bans on anyone submitting code that was made with AI stupid, since it should be judged off quality instead.

How do you parse the last part, if not calling people stupid for not using AI?

the people I respect and call intelligent are not the ones that shy away from using new and interesting tools.

Man I've seen others try to twist those words the same way even though it's on the same level as one of those elementary reasoning problems you'd find on a basic IQ test (Jack caught an std after interacting with koalas - a) all koalas transmit stds, b) some koalas transmit stds, c) pandas are free from stds, d) Jack should spend more than $5 on his hookers).

So unless you actually are stupid and this is why you're choosing to (defensively) misinterpret his words by picking the equivalent of c) here, it's clearly wilful misrepresentation of a very reasonable statement - "Of the people I admire, most don't shy away from cutting edge sutff"
