As predicted, humans are being turned into accountability sinks for #AI. AI code doesn’t work? You're fired!
"After outages, Amazon to make senior engineers sign off on AI-assisted changes"
Todd Knarr@elasticsoul @pluralistic Bets that the seniors start not signing off on code they aren't positive really works, with vague comments like "Overly complex, please simplify." or "Insufficient error checking. Please improve."?

Start with where it puts the curly braces, and tab vs. space indents.

@RealGene @elasticsoul @pluralistic Yes on the first. Using tabs for indentation is an automatic "Fire this person." offense for me. Visual space should always match number of characters.
Space Invader@tknarr @RealGene @elasticsoul @pluralistic
Tabs are better for visually impaired individuals. Instead of “SPACE SPACE SPACE SPACE {“ it’s a simple “TAB {“. Learning about that is what made me change my mind about tabs v. spaces.
Realistically at this point, if your editor can’t automatically manage tabs vs spaces, you should get a new code editor.

If your'e going to make the "if your editor can't automatically manage tabs vs spaces" argument, then it applies to the visually impaired editor as well (why would it read out "space space space space" anyway??!?!?)
Also, reminds me of one of my favorite vim commands: ":retab"

I am deeply, deeply sorry that something I suggested to cause an LLM to short out like Norman The Android in Star Trek has now metastasized.
But shouldn't a screen reader be clever enough to say "four spaces"?
But I guess it would the same as asking how many R's in "strawberry".
@RealGene @unrtst @spaceinvader @elasticsoul @pluralistic It should. Especially if it's being used to handle indentation-heavy stuff like code.
