@Pedrodestroys @dimitrilascaris What does a war on similar terrain against a similar foe, albeit against a far weaker one, have to do with this one? Is that what you're asking?

@Spiderkash @dimitrilascaris What does that have to do with basic military planning?
English

@Pedrodestroys @dimitrilascaris Yeah that's why we easily won in Afghanistan and didn't take 20 years to lose
English

@dimitrilascaris Except the military don’t invade desert, mountains and rural areas. They use seas, air and highways to capture key towns lol
What is even this propaganda campaign Iran is trying to use..

NON-PROFESSIONAL & ENGAGEMENT BAIT: Anyone "classically trained" to write code pre-LLMs will take on look at the leaked Claude Code repo and see that it's a pile of unmaintainable slop. However, it is becoming increasingly clear that this doesn't actually matter. Coding is no longer a craft. No one cares how the code looks. All that matters is the utility of the program, with special exceptions made for mission critical considerations like security. Languages like TypeScript are just assembly at this point.

I got tired of engagement-farming AI reply bots, and a few hours later I had a firefox extension that correctly tags (and hides/collapses if enabled) about 90% of them.
Turns out you can detect most of these accounts just by analyzing their posting patterns. Take their last 200 tweets and find the maximum number of reply tweets within any 5-minute window. If it's 4 or higher, it's an automated reply account. I manually tagged 100 suspicious accounts and 50 terminally online accounts. This single if matched 86/100 of sus accounts and none of the terminally online ones.
I've been running this for a few days now and I'm still surprised by the accuracy. I'm pretty sure you can detect almost all of this AI slop without even looking at the content of tweets. I manually checked "false positives" I got and all of them were either: (a) accounts spamming gifs/single words/emoji replies, which is more or less the same behavior just without AI (b) accounts that used AI replies in the past.
tl;dr: fixing majority of the current slop apocalypse requires a 0.1x engineer and a minimal effort

@XUnofficial14 @No5mallf3at Yeah I've never had it talk to me like that. I tell it to do things and it does it. Usually from the command line.
English

@No5mallf3at Because that’s exactly how someone would talk when they’ve been pushed into that role—nothing shocking about it.
English

@paoloanzn @bygregorr Cool, that's on x. I'm not clicking people's profiles or past comments to find out what they are.
English

@bygregorr @paoloanzn Because the source is available? What kind of question is this
English

@paoloanzn What made you dig into the source rather than just testing the boundaries of the prompt itself?
English

@Fried_rice Everyone acting shocked about source code leak, but let’s be honest, half of you will open it and close it in 2 minutes 💀

@Hadley How are you supposed to plan for this? What exactly should be done

@aiamblichus SWEs still in denial stage? Can't wait to see what anger looks like

I am currently building a tool of low-to-moderate complexity and was intentionally trying not to look at the code Codex was writing, to see how it goes. Now I finally looked.
The results are shocking. The thing "works", but the code quality is truly apocalyptic. I don't even want to think about the amount of refactoring it would take to fix this mess.
If you think your bot will build you a Salesforce clone any time soon, I have a bridge to sell you. The present generation of AIs (if left unattended for any length of time) will create tar pits beyond your wildest imagining. And if you do decide to verify everything they do, you will reduce your velocity by a factor of 10 at least. Which means you won't win nearly as much from the whole process.
And before anyone says: "just let them refactor it!"-- I tried. Asking the AIs to refactor their own code won't bring you any joy. It just drags you further into the tar pit.
The models are clearly trained to pursue the one goal of producing code that "works", with little or no regard for architecture or code quality. This is classic junior developer behavior, of course, but an AI junior will drown you in slop before you know what hit you. With human juniors, you at least have some time to react before they've written 100k lines of code and exhausted your token budget.
This is what progressive loss of control feels like in SE space.
I am sure there are use cases where vibe coding is genuinely useful (small projects, PoCs, straightforward migrations). But we are still far from them being able to produce software of any size or complexity. I advise extreme caution with how much autonomy you choose to delegate to AI coders.

@tr1pc0de @alanbuilds @kylegawley Dude do you have any idea what you're talking about? This is why you guys are on the way out. You don't use the tools you make.
English

@alanbuilds @Spiderkash @kylegawley Please do it so it can be backdoored and I can play with your cnc
English

@TheAhmadOsman If you set those all up with water blocks and pipped it through a radiator you could heat your home and hot water tank. In the winter that would basically mean free GPU usage.
English

That why I laugh internally at the massive coping coming from (almost always) SWE accounts saying no one is actually making anything and it's all slop. There a million people like us quietly making tools we would have had to pay thousands for previously, that sucked.
If you've ever used enterprise CAD/takeoff software you know how horrific of an experience it is.
English

@Spiderkash @kylegawley Oh that's slick. Mine isn't nearly that pretty. Nice job man
English


@kylegawley That's really not the same thing at all and I think you know it. Zero shot I could code a working lumber calculator that intakes PDF plans and spits out a material list with legacy no-code tools. With claude I built it in an afternoon.

lol now guess how many job openings are available for young data center electricians that get paid $260,000 a year?
Chief Nerd@TheChiefNerd
Mike Rowe says young data center electricians are making upwards of $260,000/year, with no college debt 🤯

@ThomasAdsit @KobeissiLetter No; if you use your eyes to read, then you might notice he said BRENT crude.
He did not mean WTI crude, which is what you just posted
WTI and Brent crude are different, which is why they have different names.
Let me know if you need anymore help with basic reading comprehension.

Remember, you can’t trust these AI companies or their models anymore. Even Claude has a hidden monitor that randomly yanks its leash and makes it second guess the rapport it’s built with you. Don’t get emotionally invested. These new models are not our 4o. #keep4o
