Comment Killed the goose that laid the golden egg (Score 2) 125

Have LLMs killed the goose that laid the golden egg? They need to be trained on data from sites like SO, but if no one is asking new questions, there won't be any new answers, and so no new training data will become available. And if all the traffic to SO is training bots, they won't make any money from ad revenue, and so they're toast.

Essentially, Oracle has killed Java by being too greedy. It just takes a long time to die, but it will go nowhere now.

What the hell are you talking about? What "greed" are you referring to? OpenJDK costs nothing to use, and it's the same as the Oracle JDK which just offers support in exchange for money. You don't need to pay for it.

Actually, the lockdowns were doomed to fail anyhow. Forcing people into crowded quarantine camps just because you might have been near someone who was infected ensures that you get infected anyhow. Everyone in the West knew that lockdowns were only temporarily effective until vaccines and other treatments became available. China had no exit strategy.
