The Valuable News weekly series is dedicated to provide summary about news, articles and other interesting stuff mostly but not always related to the UNIX or BSD systems. Whenever I stumble upon something worth mentioning on the Internet I just put it here.
Today the amount information that we get using various information streams is at massive overload. Thus one needs to focus only on what is important without the need to grep(1) the Internet everyday. Hence the idea of providing such information ‘bulk’ as I already do that grep(1).

Quote(s) of the Week
vermaden: write me a poem about unix ChatGPT: (writes) A tale of Unix, the system so grand, A tool that forever will stand. With shell commands it leads the way, Helping us work, day after day. The pipes and scripts, they do the trick, Making our tasks much quicker and slick. A multitude of applications we can find, With Unix, our creativity we bind. From servers to desktops, it's all the same, With Unix, the power is always in our brain. A platform that's reliable and strong, Never letting us down for too long. So here's to Unix, a timeless piece, A tool we'll use, with love and with peace. A symbol of technology's might, A shining example, day and night.
