@simon_brooke @AndrewRadev absolutely not a valid excuse. There are translation services that do not make you sound like an artificial twat.
Google Translate is fine for just about most things. I would much rather read “obvious Google Translate” slop because you can work backwards from ooorly translated text to find the original meaning.
AI slop strips out the original intent and replaces it with… slop.

@AndrewRadev these people are old, exhausted, and dont want to code anymore.
@f4grx @AndrewRadev I have a radical opinion that every over 45 should be provided an apartment, a latest game console with a subscription, and a lifetime food and beer supply, and banned from working. For exactly this reason.

@remove_huilo @f4grx @AndrewRadev trouble is all modern video games suck, they were much better back in our day.

@cuboci @AndrewRadev I wish I had the patience left to be so charitable, but every project I've seen which has used LLMs in this fashion has eventually accepted PRs with glaring security holes.
Even if they're doing their best under difficult circumstances, it's still an unacceptable risk in my perspective, and I'm going to have to start seriously considering alternatives even if I don't switch immediately.
So, perhaps that slow death has already begun
@ansuz @AndrewRadev What can I say, I'm an optimist at heart
-
@steko @AndrewRadev My impression was that they use "AI assisted" code analysers that are rather a different technology from the slop parrots being used here in vim. Daniel has a firm (and negative) opinion about slop for multiple reasons, IIRC.
@phl @steko @AndrewRadev Came here to say that "AI slop in curl" is him the maintainer complaining about people using LLM to find bugs

@AndrewRadev I assume helix would serve as a good vim replacement?

@leonardof @phl @AndrewRadev "Copilot started reviewing on behalf of bagder" is what had me worried https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/20793

@AndrewRadev which means @neovim is tainted as well because it regularly pulls changes from Vim. I'm not sure if someone in the Neovim team uses LLMs as well, they probably do.
@ayushnix @AndrewRadev Some do. This repo was created by a Neovim maintainer: https://github.com/famiu/llm_conversation. Another maintainer has an OpenCode agent config in their dotfiles: https://github.com/dundargoc/justin/blob/master/.config/opencode/AGENTS.md. Another is also the maintainer of a Neovim Copilot plugin: https://github.com/folke/sidekick.nvim. I'm sure there are many more, I only looked at a few.

@remove_huilo @f4grx @AndrewRadev yeah I really get the feeling that this movement is shaped by people who hate programming. They're probably not the ones who should decide what happens to young computer people.

@root @cuboci @AndrewRadev sorry, didn't realize we were doing a "wrong answers only" thread

@remove_huilo @f4grx @AndrewRadev I'd take that deal on the condition you gave me all the abandoned legacy FORTRAN code that still has technical value and leave me to refactor it into something that can go another 40 years eithout maintenance. No AI, just a decent IDE, and time. I find that work intensely satisfying and relaxing; by all appearances it has no economic value.
-
@AndrewRadev @normalmode It actually is the reason I've switched back from Neovim after years.
Now I need to reconsider mu editor, the main building block of my work and one of the biggest ones in my private life... So sad.
-
@AndrewRadev Is neovim better in this regard?
-
This is in a PR where Shougo, another long-time contributor, communicates entirely in walls of unparseable AI slop text: https://github.com/vim/vim/pull/19413
What a pathetic state after decades of active, thoughtful work. "I asked the chatbot how to write this code", "Well, I asked my chatbot, and "he" doesn't like it". What a fucking embarrassment.
@AndrewRadev Look at how productive it's making everyone!

@remove_huilo @f4grx @AndrewRadev trouble is all modern video games suck, they were much better back in our day.
@DrHyde @remove_huilo @f4grx @AndrewRadev In other news, the developers of Dysmantle have released a new game into early access: Dysplaced https://www.10tons.com/game/dysplaced/
Dysmantle is incredibly satisfying with fantastic audio design and a very cathartic SMASH ALL THE THINGS theme.
INFRA is from a few years ago but it's a masterwork in environmental storytelling with incredibly deep lore and an ARG that remains unsolved - think of it as a civil engineering murder mystery for a nation's infrastructure. The developer's current game (Obenseuer) is bleak and hilariously awful - a top-notch Finland Simulator that rapidly goes sideways into the supernatural, extending the lore of INFRA. Warning: like malört, Obenseuer is an acquired taste.
NORCO is really unique and haunting, especially if you've ever spent time in the industrial corridors of southern Louisiana.
There are some real gems out there but finding them seems like a full time job.

@AndrewRadev “He?” WTF?

@AndrewRadev wow this PR is truly painful to read. it feels like these social networks made for AIs to talk to each other. I don’t mind AI writing code for you, but you gotta take ownership over the ideas, you can’t just point a finger and say it this or that, you gotta understand it and own it. You posted it online, under your name, not the AI’s.
@eljojo @AndrewRadev "I don’t mind AI writing code for you"
you really should
