New ntfy.sh v2.18.0 was written by AI - Lemmy.World

According to the release: >Adds experimental PostgreSQL support >The code was written by Cursor and Claude >14,997 added lines of code, and 10,202 lines removed >reviewed and heavily tested over 2-3 weeks This makes me a bit uneasy, especially as ntfy is an internet facing service. Am I overreacting or do you all share the same concern?

They are not even trusting it themselves. This is from the release notes

I’ll not instantly switch ntfy.sh over. Instead, I’m kindly asking the community to test the Postgres support and report back to me if things are working

Fuck that.

Classic “test in production” strategy, very solid!

Test in production is the best. We spent months warning from data bugs and nobody bat an eye (upstream bug, not our responsibility but we noticed) When it was d launched in prod we just pointed out the bug that nobody fixed was still there and immediately a war room was formed and the bug fixed within an hour.

It honestly seems more efficient to let shit hit the fan than to fight everybody to do their job.

For sure, the song of the hero who fixed the production bug is oft sang at meetings but the loser who prevented the bug to begin with gets no credit.
