@KitsuneofInari “as long as the contributor understands the code” understands is subjective, and they’re guaranteed to understand it less, so really its just apologism for converting codebases into unmaintainable dumpster fires

@KitsuneofInari I love you Krita! And all the developers, too!
Been backing Affinity for the longest time, since nobody has to wonder on Adobe's position on AI ("we're already vibing our source code, use Firefly!") Affinity 3.0 was the biggest disappointment.
Thank you for this.

@KitsuneofInari im not sure id say that understanding of code is a boolean function of just either fully understanding everything including any and all bugs that could ever arise, and not understanding it at all, but rather a variable level of some understanding,

@Li @KitsuneofInari So... Nobody can really understand code fully, not even the code they have written. Code has become too complex, and there is just too much of it!
But if you have thought about what your were writing, if you have recorded your thinking in commit messages and comments.
There is a chance you might have a recollection of having created that code when debugging it, ten years later.
If you asked Claude to regexp-slop it for you, not chance.

@Li @KitsuneofInari Also, the fun part of writing software is thinking, coding, testing, seeing people use it...
Doing code-review, not so much. That's what you do to help other people to level up.
But with LLM-generated code, where are the people you want to mentor?
But you still have to code-review the swill.

@KitsuneofInari > that code will be unmaintainable
we'll have to see how it goes, ladybird seems to be doing well, and there's a lot of projects that use LLMs already and a number have had issues (seems small, like the vim stuff), but for the rest, it doesn't seem as catastrophic, if at all. -

@KitsuneofInari thx Krita!
I think many fall for a misconception here.
The code good developers write is a result of their understanding of the code that already exists and the way they intend to improve it.If that code is generated, it is no longer a testament of somebody understanding what is going on. It becomes a "this feels like it does what I want".

I'm reminded of how many people lost their shit (in a good way) when DeviantArt dumped all their AI on us without permission. Because money, I guess.
I keep hoping to hear that they killed the golden goose with that. Or at least that there's literally no more actual people using the platform and it's all a bunch of wanky janky machines just yipping at each other on into eternity.
