Lol I don’t think anyone is saying Linux is going anywhere.

You probably already know this but paper covers total cost of ownership. I think we agree cost of EVs is significantly inflated but for many use cases TCO is still lower than ICE vehicles. So if you’re in the market for purchasing a car definitely worth investigating!

How do you manage?

Yeah I don’t know why I’m getting attacked here. I am just trying to have a conversation not influence anyone’s opinion.

If anyone is curious I am a software engineer. I have not been laid off but I do not have an overall positive view of the latest trend of “AI” in terms of its impact to society in the way it is overly represented by just a handful of “frontier lab” companies.

I appreciated the stats though that the reckoning has not yet come despite sympathizing with those who have already been impacted and being angered by companies who are making decisions on limited/short term goals.
