Cloudflare just published a vibe coded blog post claiming they implemented Matrix on cloudflare workers.

[markasspandi@shrimpnet.gej.pet]

@JadedBlueEyes It started off okay, mostly because they said it was a proof of concept and an experiment, but then I saw that "it is arguably one of the most secure ways to deploy a homeserver today" and just
lmfao

@JadedBlueEyes

"build a serverless home server" is the most fucking brainrot, dipshit, nonsense thing ive read in a while

[jadedblueeyes@tech.lgbt]

@MarkAssPandi They updated the text

[jadedblueeyes@tech.lgbt]

For those coming in now, they updated the blog post to include a disclaimer. Original post:

@JadedBlueEyes Serverless is exactly how matrix shouldve been built anyway. Cuz I dont wanna use this crap anymore.

[goopadrew@infosec.exchange]

@JadedBlueEyes lol, "unknown error" should imply the existence of a known error

[gudenau@hachyderm.io]

@JadedBlueEyes I know someone Tibet works there that has openly admitted to changing their workflow to `while (testsFailing()) doLlmSlop()` and it really shows.

[U-turn in the readme, too](https://github.com/nkuntz1934/matrix-workers/commit/fd412f41f98c0f3f360f5c4034443ef80680de49), and an employee trying to do damage control on lobsters too

Quoting from one of my chat rooms:

> Distributed protocols get extra complex once cryptography and security get in the mix and without a domain expert

authentication isn't "extra complex", you literally removed signature checking. and hashes. And fucking authentication.

> ensure this handles the myriad of edge cases that regularly plague Matrix implementations

YOU REMOVED. AUTHENTICATION. THIS ISN'T SOME WEIRD EDGE CASE WITH STATE RESETS. YOU REMOVED AUTHENTICATION AND VALIDATION.

@JadedBlueEyes Eeek. That || instead of ?? is just painful to see. Repeatedly.

At my previous company we had one of our mid-level devs fall into this trap last year. Ended up failing in production in almost exactly this type of scenario, where the dev expected an array or undefined, but got true.

I have to wonder if this is an artifact of the initial training for these systems being on Python, which doesn't have a strong equivalent for ??. And, you know, the fact that these things don't actually understand the code they generate, as much as anyone may claim otherwise.

[chris_colvin@mastodon.social]

@JadedBlueEyes don't worry

@JadedBlueEyes They updated their post, it now says Synapse instead of Tuwunel.

[jadedblueeyes@tech.lgbt]

I swear every iteration of the blogpost is somehow worse. No, your starting point wasn’t Synapse either. Your starting point was the claude opus chatbox

@JadedBlueEyes thank you for your work on continuwuity. An actually good matrix implementation.

[gossithedog@cyberplace.social]

@JadedBlueEyes lol

[h5e@tech.lgbt]

@JadedBlueEyes oh sorry I missed that!

[h5e@tech.lgbt]

@JadedBlueEyes ah we posted around the same time. I did check

[eflex@social.spejset.org]

@JadedBlueEyes I am so glad we are well invested, giving all of the moneys to Cloudflare.

[joshbal4@m.fa.gl]

@JadedBlueEyes it’s post-quantum security: if you observe it it’s not there
