They prominently point this change out and kind of force you to choose whether you opt in or out. There is a single checkbox to opt out of all. But yes, it's a bad direction. Just maybe not the apocalypse implied by some.
Apparently all your friends and family are comfortable with hostnames and ip addresses. Not everyone's are. Also, not everyone wants to buy a static ip or setup a dynamic dns service or similar. Plex is definitely simpler. I have used both.
I can understand where you're coming from. Sometimes people do pile on over silly things. It sucks to self-censor but I think I've learned just to stay quiet on a lot of the topics people will jump on me for. The worst is when people will accuse you of holding horrible bigoted views because you make a comment about how something in a post or comment isn't exactly true. Any dissent = black and white judgement sometimes. The internet is way worse than it should be...
Gotcha. No worries. I figured you were coming in good faith but wasn't certain. Who is pushing llm's for programming that hard? In my bubble, which often includes Lemmy, most people HATE them for all uses. I get that tech bros and linked in crazies probably push this tech for coding a lot, but outside of that, most devs I know IRL either are lukewarm or dislike llm's for dev work.
With all due respect, how can you weigh in on programming so confidently when you admit to not being a programmer?
People tend to despise or evangelize LLMs. To me, github copilot has a decent amount of utility. I only use the auto-complete feature which does things like save me from typing 2-5 predictable lines of code that devs tend to type all the time. Instead of typing it all, I press tab. It's just a time saver. I have never used it like "write me a script or a function that does x" like some people do. I am not interested in that as it seems like a sad crutch that I'd need to customize so much anyway that I may as well skip that step.
Having said that, I'm noticing the copilot autocomplete seems to be getting worst over time. I'm not sure why it worsening, but if it ever feels not worth it anymore I'll drop it, no harm no foul. The binary thinkers tend to think you're either a good dev who despises all forms of AI or you're an idiot who tries to have a robot write all your code for you. As a dev for the past 20 years, I see no reason to choose between those two opposites. It can be useful in some contexts.
PS. did you try the eslint 8 -> 9 migration tool? If your config was simple enough for it, it likely would've done all or almost all the work for you... It fully didn't work for me. I had to resolve several errors, because I tend to add several custom plugins, presets, and rules that differ across projects.
I searched this issue and didn't find anything very helpful. The new config format can be done many slightly different ways and there are a lot of variables in how your plugins and presets can be. It made perfect sense to me that the LLM couldn't do this upgrade for op. Since one tiny mistake and it won't work at all and usually gives a weird error.
I wouldn't say it's accurate that this was a "mechanical" upgrade, having done it a few times. They even have a migration tool which you'd think could fully do the upgrade but out of the probably 4-5 projects I've upgraded, the migration tool always produced a config that errored and needed several obscure manual changes to get working. All that to say it seems like a particularly bad candidate for llms

Well yeah maybe that too, but a server no one connects to is a paperweight. The connection part confuses laypeople
