Wow, people making up excuses for the AI slop (like maybe just it’s tests coverage issue,…), we are doomed

This has to be one of 3 things:
Because I was experimenting with LLMs since gpt 3.5, still use them on and off because FOMO and they are still shit for anything that’s not trivial

it was my only social presence, it was also the only place Linus Torvalds place where he shared his updates
We have windsurf review bot (uses Claude under the hood I guess), it has 3 states: LGTM, crashed you should try later (never works even after 1000 retries), or the change is too big and refuses to review it.

Cool, now you need us back to fix the shit you broke / permanently disabled.
Reasonably sized LLMs solved the NLP problem, like YOLO + SSD solved permanently the object detection problem, why we didn’t celebrate that and stopped there or switched to a new endeavor like JEPA architecture? why they had to fucking push LLM more and over invest? my stupid ass could see this a thousand kilometer away, why they couldn’t foresee this?


I am nowhere close to be as smart as him or people like him, but I abandoned a project because of sloppy massive PRs and started refusing to put my name / approval on most PRs at work also because of the same thing, I am the tech person who stayed the most here and not gonna waste my time reviewing slop for others to take credit (just push it with Claude, dev XX will review it properly before it hits prod).
The decline started, but I will keep protecting my side in this company while I am here. I use LLMs occasionally (so I am not going against management trying to make us more productive) to type less, or extract smaller snippets, … but the change is 100% what I had in mind and I hold myself 100% responsible for the output.
who needs calculator when you have next-token-predictor


What’s the biggest code base you have worked with?
I agree on your point but I hate calling elites because they are not, they are parasite pedo fungus

I could guess from the beginning their tech is shit and they only rely on corruption to keep afloat, they have been the last option from the beginning, after Google and Microsoft refuse so they don’t damage public image, they turn to Palantir who’s only marketing stunt is having 0 morality, they should be declared as terrorist organization and be hunted.


simple
I stopped reading there, curl can do crazy stuff, even sending emails.


So now we learned how to make simple guidelines / docs

with Gemini AI at its core
lol, I don’t need to read more
Well, that wasn’t my experience when I was a junior, every failure was blamed on me, PR is deliberatelty stretched to look like I am slower and worse than I am, it was a lot of suffering but we all have to start from somewhere.


Most systems also use single user, you normally give yourself docker group access (I use docker for work) and that alone is equivalent to root access. It’s not the 90s anymore where universities gave user access to all students, priv escalation was a big security threat, now it almost doesn’t mean anything, nobody shares the same machine anymore the way they used to do.


if somebody has user access to your computer, they are already 95% there, so I am not worried about these priv escalation part of the last 5%
Patrick you should go fuck yourself, you are not different from that low life systemd age field PR asshole
Progressing is cool, but having 10 yoe and still outputing spaghetti is bad. I am just saying if you care enough about what you are doing you are top 10% already
That could easily be like 90% of my current and previous coworkers.
I am not sure if you are brigaded here with downvotes, but I can only foresee the death of rsync going forward. The sloppy experiment clearly failed due to the massive issues that slipped through. He is doing it for free, I get it, he has the freedom to do what he wants but we can also jump ship to something with less features and no slop
