@snaums the trouble with open source is we conflate these two things

@rmi My initial comparisons to substance abuse were somewhat tentative and reluctant, back in January. But these have gone from being a few troubling-but-subtle bits of hearsay and implication to a drumbeat of near-daily incidents and I wish I were not feeling so validated in this particular view

@glyph In general,the smartest people you know are almost certainly only one context-switch away from acting like complete fools.
@miss_rodent this is so true!

Sigh. OK. rsync discourse:
This is not a story about “vibe coding” or “slop” or regressions or even open source sustainability or whatever: it’s a story about mental health.
The timeline of Tridge’s response in particular can be broke down like so:
1. AI skeptics say "LLMs create difficult-to-evaluate defects, even if you're careful"
2. Tridge introduces defects even though he was careful
3. he gets yelled at
4. His response is to say "you dinosaurs don't appreciate how *careful* I was!"@glyph Just like „there are no atheists in the foxholes” adage doesn’t tell us much about atheists, successes of solo developers with AI don’t tell us much about AI.

@glyph @rmi I think it's worse than any drug addicts, because even with legal "soft" drugs like caffeine we don't tell people that they've to:
- Consume that shit or youcwill get fired.
- We'll fire people because someone OD'ing on caffeine is better than a well-adjusted being
- Allow execs to sout hateful garbage (i.e. that people refusing to do it should starve to death).
Like most junkies at least have the courtesy to keep their stuff away from small children, when the AIslop industry actively tries to target minors!

@glyph I’ve seen this before, and no LLMs were involved. It’s addiction.

@glyph or it could be the patch that caused the regression was written by him in a hurry to fix a security hole. Then he realised he needed better testing and used AI tooling to try and solve the lack of testing and validation. Reading skills can't be that shit around here, maybe use an AI to read his blog post.

if you train it, due to its non-determinism it looses half its memory between hours of chatting with it. thats not a fault, thats *by design*
i can understand where hes coming from with "careful".
