This is truly glorious #AISlop from #Microslop in their "Introduction to Github" course.

@dazfuller I used to be an author of Learn modules. It was a few years ago, but I think they were moving heavily into AI produced documentation. I think this proves it. So sad.
@phils it really is, I used to point to these documents as a gold standard
-
@dazfuller check out my new git flow diagram!
@ipsavitsky this is way more understandable and clearly identifies the same pain points

@dazfuller I was very proud to have worked on them

I don't know why Tim is working in the opposite direction, but I can see that he never once "morges" his code back into develop, let alone doing it "continvoucly"
Update:
It looks as though after 4-5 months the page has been updated, but if you want to see the image in situ still then the way back machine has you covered.
@dazfuller the Microsoft project manager was tagged on the post on bluesky and he took it down in like an hour

@liaizon damn! As funny as this is, I love that responsiveness. Could have gone down the "we'll review in due course" route, but impressed that he didn't

@aleciabatson @munin if this isn’t standard terminology by middle of the year then I’ll be devastated
@dazfuller @munin to ensure this occurs, all we must do is begin to use the verb in spoken and written exchanges. See: @pluralistic’s “enshittification”.
-
@dazfuller the course page has been updated; I don't see this image in there.
@bencomp @dazfuller It was there yesterday when I looked at it.
I actually submitted negative feedback letting them know in particular how unhelpful that image was. Between that and the flack here on Masto, wouldn't be surprised if someone went "oh shit" and fixed it.

@dazfuller as I shared with @munin
I love the English #language! Ever-evolving with new verbs and terms. (Now, with #slopification!) In this instance, I’ll gladly employ “to morg” because, based purely on context, it seems to be defined as
morg / mɔrg /
verb
to cause a deadly or grossly negligent outcome upon mergeUse in a sentence
*After the changes were shipped, they published just before failover and morged the live, resulting in an outage for the on call.*@aleciabatson @dazfuller @munin
Another: slopic or sloptic
A portmanteau in today’s social media rich environment

@itgrrl @dazfuller Tim says it best.
@klefstadmyr @dazfuller “Timn”

@itgrrl @dazfuller
You are not Morg! You are not I-Morg! -
@writeon1 an ironic choice considering the root of this thread, and that most individuals involved in this thread understand the damaging impacts of generative #AI and GenAI slop, and are likely to be anti-GenAI.
Next time, please first regard the planet and consider asking a human with Actual Intelligence
for clarification.

@itgrrl @dazfuller this almost made me choke on my covfefe thanks

@dazfuller I think "morging" is one of those weird "sourcemaxxing" things all the cool kids are doing these days
@msh @dazfuller It's Morging Time!

I don't know why Tim is working in the opposite direction, but I can see that he never once "morges" his code back into develop, let alone doing it "continvoucly"

It looks as though after 4-5 months the page has been updated, but if you want to see the image in situ still then the way back machine has you covered.
@dazfuller that’s a “tim-line”, Tim Button’s git-flow. Tim is the younger brother of Benjamin

@dazfuller no surprise here. I always found MS's online docs to be kinda crap.
Which is weird, because MS Press has some of the best IT books ever... is MS Press even still a thing, though? -
@dazfuller this company has a market cap of $2.98 Trillion.
@fancysandwiches @dazfuller if anyone needs proof that we entered some weird alternative timeline some time in the last 10 years, this valuation is it.

@bartholin @ohmrun @dazfuller Or is it? I think it's an nm ligature so it's Tinm.
@moira @bartholin @ohmrun @dazfuller
Would we be able to discern Tinm from Timn? -
