      @AndrewRadev just to see if I understand. Are you having an issue with using Claude code for working with code or with the fact that he addresses claude like a person?

          @AndrewRadev@hachyderm.io I used to think how much nicer the internet in general and FOSS communities specifically would be if people were a bit warmer and nicer to each other. Acknowledging others' contributions and ideas, thanking each other for good points etc. instead of the popular attempts to outnerd each other on technicalities.

          Should've been more careful about what I wish for I guess...

            This isn't even rewriting his own thoughts in whatever bland style the chatbot can muster, it's just dumping people's comments into the bot and copy-pasting whatever it shits out.

            This is The Future that boosters want: An endless bikeshedding session where agreeable chatbots trade excessively polite thank-yous and screenfuls of bullet-pointed lists. A bunch of children, getting paid to play around with tamagotchis.

            What a bleak fucking future to dream of.

            @AndrewRadev everyuone I talked to when the dumbass AI boom started told me not to worry but I knew straight away vibe coding trash will make things crap. Seeing people I used to look up to when I was a young developer are now AI zombies. My current, thankfully non-dev, work is impacted a lot with certain vendors releasing updates that break a lot of basic functionality. What a f-ing mess 😞

              @AndrewRadev ugh.

              I've been using vim for like.. 15 years? I thought it was unlikely to get caught up in the fad-chasing that seems to affect so many other editors.

              I do not want to have to switch, but now I feel like I might have to

                  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 Sounds like every corporate/business email I’ve ever received. I fucking hate that style of communicating. Maybe it’s just me, but I never say thank you in an email unless I really mean it!

                      @AndrewRadev This might be what it takes for me to switch to Neovim, assuming they're not going the same way.

                        @catch56 @AndrewRadev i can't put my finger on why but it feels like shougo is using ai to create the original issue and hold conversations. I don't see why chrisbra wouldn't do the same to tell him to fuck off.

                        Why would he spend the effort to read through something that someone else couldn't even be bothered to write?

                        Or am I wrong?

                            @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.

                              @AndrewRadev @kunev I vividly remember having to discuss an essay article from the NYT or Guardian about "Visions of the future" for my English final exams in 2011.

                              In it the author described scenes where users' soon to be ubiquitous AR glasses, might show them likable cartoon characters from their youth instead of homeless people on the street.

                              This feels like that

                                @KatS @AndrewRadev There are "Claude" commits in both vim and neovim, so I'm basically committed to never upgrading ever again.

                                          @AndrewRadev@hachyderm.io I used to think how much nicer the internet in general and FOSS communities specifically would be if people were a bit warmer and nicer to each other. Acknowledging others' contributions and ideas, thanking each other for good points etc. instead of the popular attempts to outnerd each other on technicalities.

                                          Should've been more careful about what I wish for I guess...

                                          @kunev @AndrewRadev "the monkey's paw curls"

                                          I've had minimal non-consentual contact with llm-app responses, but those leading sentences of a stochastic parrot reply really really get to me (due to people copypasting slop at me with zero human interaction/filtering/etc)
