there are people who attempt to distinguish AI-assisted autocomplete from substantially AI-assisted code from raw braindead Gas Town vibe coding

this is not a useful distinction as they *all* end up at the third one

you can tell when they start posting the *same* hype phrases all the others use

there is no moderation on the krokodil advocacy train

@davidgerard This post is actually too meme-dense for me. I don’t get the references to Gas Town and krocodil. What are they?
@paco @davidgerard I assumed it was this but may be wrong about it; no idea what gas town is, either

@ehproque @paco @davidgerard

References to krokodil are made because it's a high of last resort. When your addiction has ripped everything else from you and you need to get higher, It's there.
The name comes from how it cracks and breaks the skin around the needle wounds that necrotise during use.
If you get on to it you're probably not coming back because the people who supply it and the 'friends' that showed you how to get it have no interest in your survival and you die in septic, necrotic inches in front of them.
