FWIW I switched over to Nix recently, and discovered that deploying builds over SSH is a first-class feature.
I wired up remote build pushes from my workstation to my underpowered VPS + antique thinkpad, and it’s been 100% painless. You can definitely make immutable work on <1 GB memory without much fuss if you’re not locked into a single-device model.
If you were a painter who who makes art for a living, does it really seem “fair” for someone else to take your work, without any sort of consent or compensation, and use it to produce other works that are in direct competition (for time, money and attention) with you? How is that “fair” in any sense of the word?
You’re equating the human process of learning and practicing art to scraping and feeding a bunch of stuff into a machine learning algorithm
You were not talking at all about LLMs in your rhetoric: you were talking about artists painting and I responded to what you wrote. You made the analogy linking LLM output to an artists output; I did not.
Please engage in good faith or self-ban.

This is exactly how it works in the real world. I can go teach a class* on how to imitate the art style and techniques of any living famous artist, and as long as I’m not knocking off a direct copy of their pieces, it’s kosher per copyright law and per social norms.
I could even show the artist’s works unaltered in those classes as long as I’m doing so to comment educationally.
That’s been the standard for literal centuries and most creatives are not offended or upset by it. I personally would not at all be offended or considered it unfair if someone taught a class on how I made things I showed publicly.
Second paragraph, yo.
