Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

To (somewhat) reiterate a potentially extreme position of mine, shit like this is why society needs to actively avoid adopting new software for the time being, if not actively cut back on software usage whenever possible.
Whilst the IT industry was already a failure-ridden mess which actively refuses to learn before AI was a thing, the rise of AI and "vibe coding" has made things so much worse in practically every regard. At this point, any new software should be treated as a liability until proven otherwise.
while I relate to this take and it could even work out for offline systems, online systems need constant updates to protect yourself against software vulnerabilities. i don't think we've reached the point where FOSS software is so infiltrated that a Trojan would be less malicious than slop code
That is a pretty solid point - constant updates are something online systems need on a regular basis.
AFAIK FOSS has avoided being slopified by AI, so we should hopefully be pretty far from that point

Promptfondlers are trying mightily to slopify FOSS whether it likes it or not.
certain projects like Fedora and Bitwarden are considering it, so I'm not too pleased about that
