I talk about #retrocomputing a lot. I also do a lot of #gardening and occasionally make #bread and #beer. I have been a Unix #sysadmin for about 30 years but I think I'll be OK.
I live in #Melbourne, #Australia and sometimes tell jokes on stages around here. I co-host a #StarTrek podcast with @ThePingMachine

This is a real time recording of my git server's web access logs. It's a constant stream of requests from "Claude" attempting to access every possible item on the site.
A couple of months ago, I set up a rule to return an error code for every request its user agent makes. It has not retrieved a single valid item for many, many weeks at this point. Every request is immediately and abruptly terminated.
It hasn't even slowed down as a result.
Tell me again how their operation involves "intelligence" of any kind.
