🔗 rsync and outrage

This is all a huge amount of work. I’m retired (though my wife may dispute that!) and I’d rather be out sailing than working on rsync security issues, so I have reached for several AI tools to help with what needs to be done. I have absolutely no regrets about doing that, although from the storm of anti-AI rage it’s clear that many people think I should be hung up by my toe nails and flogged for even considering doing this. Source: rsync and outrage For the amount of vitriol that Andrew Tridgell received, this was quite a mature response. Kinda shows why he’s one of the greatest and a good steward. At the end of the day, LLMs are a tool. You wield it for an end. In this case, a man deserves all the sailing for creating one of the most useful utilities in the world. And I am glad he’s finding stewards for rsync even amongst the onslaught.
