The creator of Linux just publicly called out the AI hype. Word for word.

Linus Torvalds took the stage at Open Source Summit 2026 and said this:

"When I see people saying 99% of our code is written by AI, I literally get angry. Because those same people — I can pretty much guarantee — 100% of their code is written by compilers. But they never say that."

He is not anti AI. The Linux kernel saw a 20% jump in submissions this release because of AI tools. He uses it. He gets it.

His point is something most people are too afraid to say.

AI is a productivity tool exactly like compilers were. Compilers boosted programming by 1000x. AI adds another 10x on top. Enormous. But nobody says "the compiler wrote my code." So why are we saying AI wrote it?

He also flagged something nobody is talking about.

AI is flooding small open source projects with drive-by bug reports. Someone runs a prompt, files a report and disappears when asked for a patch. Maintainers with one or two people are drowning trying to keep up.

"Sometimes AI reports a bug and when you ask for more information the person has done that drive-by and does not even answer your question. That is the real burnout issue."

And his final warning was the sharpest of all.

"People who do not understand the complexity of systems will prompt systems and write processes that will fail."

The AI hype crowd is very loud right now.

Linus has been building real systems for 35 years. When he talks, engineers listen.

[HOW THINGS WORK @HowThingsWork_]

In Romania, To encourage exercise & wellness riders can travel for free on local bus by doing 20 squats. A device counts the squats and then issues a free ticket.

What do you think of this idea? Are you Squatting? 😂

Google Research just proved you can boost llm accuracy by up to 76 percentage points with zero extra output tokens, zero latency increase, and zero fine-tuning ���

the technique: paste your prompt twice.

that's it. that's the paper.

but WHY it works reveals something important about how every llm you use actually reads your input:

Dear @nitin_gadkari

We need a public website that shows:

> Which contractor built road
> Which babu approved it
> Total cost & ministers involved
> Firm responsible for maintenance

Contractors are becoming billionaires while people die on roads

Bring real accountability now!

People without any significant amount of money should not be investing in stocks and mutual funds.

What are you going to do investing Rs 10k every month in the market?

It is not "discipline".

It is stupidity and laziness hiding under the garb of discipline.

You will never see any real money in your prime years by giving away whatever little you make to other people.

What you need is to use that small amount of money to start a business and make big money.

Save around Rs 50-75k and buy a mobile phone, laptop and a phone stand.

Make sure you get hi-speed WIFI in your house.

Now use the infrastructure to LOCK-IN and build your business.

Reading.
Posting.
Videos.
Watching courses and podcasts.
Networking with the right people.

Build an online community in a few months by delivering outstanding value at a consistent pace.

Then the world opens up when you will be flooded with money for your time and your services.

Now you can use this CAPITAL and invest in the stock market.

Build a website and sell courses.
Start a Personal Mentoring Program.

You can do all this in a year with extreme dedication and hard work.

Most people are so lazy that they will prefer to do SIP and stay mediocre all their lives.

The certified POPATS will not get my point.

Interesting learning techniques 👏

[Anuradha Tiwari @talk2anuradha]

If 5 Rs biscuit has all details, why not 100 Cr road?

'QR codes' should be added on all roads to show details like who built the road, cost involved, ministers, babus names, etc.

Time to #KnowYourRoad

5 Rs Parle G 100 Cr Road
