    I love this copypasta, I love my linux, I hate my windows. But let’s be honest with ourselves for a second and completely ignore the punchline of this meme.

    Those ARE valid criticisms of linux distros. Arch is not for casuals so you should be aware what you’re getting into before stepping in, however your everyday-consumer-facing distros like Mint are still far from providing a fully comfortable day to day experience.

    Again, I love my Mint, I’m never going back to windows, I’m a technical person and I had to use AI to help me run my nonograms game without it injecting cocaine into my CPU.

    You seem to be focused on the perspective that to lose experts to AI means that the AI may literally outperform people and thus lead to them getting fired.

    What I’m trying to say is that it’s not the only way a man can get expunged from the industry.

    AI made it blatantly obvious that the C-level is extremely hostile and threatening to anyone beneath them. That if you fire enough people you will create a whilpool that will expand and start devouring even the most capable professionals. That efficiency befenits are only for the higherups, your expected performance will extend without any benefit.

    The advent of AI didn’t generate these issues, but it augmented them far beyond human limits.

    I haven’t lost my job, I’ve lost my career. Not being able to continue working due to lack of jobs is staggering, because I have to make a living one way or another.

    I’ve also completely lost my trust in this profession, because even if I manage to get back up on my feet, how much time will pass and will I still remember all my techniques that allowed me to stand out?

    And how much longer until the next crisis if the entire tech industry’s C-level showed to be extremely excited about the idea of getting rid of me by any means necessary?

    Get to know your shit. I’ve lost my career due to AI and let me tell you how it went, because I was pretty fucking good at it.

    It’s virtually impossible to get a new job. I’m a senior fullstack architect with typescript and I used to be a main developer under large military R&D project that I delivered fully. The company collapsed because politics.

    Then, after like 6 months of searching, I landed a new leadership role at a fresh Fuel blockchain startup, once again - I was building a pretty serious perpetual futures trading app. All went well until the company collapsed due to lack of funding, 6 months after I joined.

    The market was extremely bad before I got the blockchain project. The market is beyond broken right now. I just know I’m underwater and I’m not getting back up from here even though I’m well aware I’m very much competent.

    I may be able to ace at most interviews, but I’m not getting visibility in this absolute shitstorm of other candidates fired because of the AI. And even if I do get an interview, there’s always someone who’s gonna beat my aced interview with an ever more aced interview.

    I’m either building my very own company from scratch or I’m buying a tractor.

    I switched from Windows to Mint Cinnamon last year, couldn’t be happier. While I won’t be recommending GrapheneOS to my non-geeky friends and family, I will very much always be recommending ditching Windows for Linux Mint. The transition is super smooth and friendly and that’s the most important aspect for your everyday people.
