I guess fundamentally my objection to vibe coding and LLM contributions in general is that, at least to me, the process of figuring shit out is the point.

I think cutting out that journey is bad engineering, because design docs are rarely correct on the first try.

The other industry I can think of where people in a position of dire dependence on a provider cannot even really know in adjacent how much any given service will really cost? Health care.

Le sigh. Et tu, rsync? :(

[Update, OpenBSD has it’s own version: https://cathode.church/@meena/116654702820939443]

[Update2: OG rsync is already borked: https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@JeremiahFieldhaven/116654345332213390]

For the uninitiated, rsync is one of the very few tools in computing that you used to be able to trust to work every time and not surprise you.

That trust is gone now.

The enshittification escalates...

I walked away from tech almost four years ago with a case of burnout you could see from space.

The intervening three years have only made me more grateful that I left when I did.

(I wish all my friends and colleagues still chained to the oars had my opportunity.)

Pasting a huge AI generated explanation to a problem in an issue or pull-request is nothing but RUDE. Don't do it. You look stupid and the receivers of that feel insulted.

We are humans. We communicate like humans. Fine, use the tools you like, but don't insult us.
