Would love to see this more widespread.

Would love to see more devs tanking their reputations with this.

haha it's funny how corporatism has taken over

"good" devs are desperate to be good AI boys and girls

punk rock mentality is dangerous. lots of people hate AI but few have the guts to publicly say how the really feel. their CEOs are watching.

agreed. these landmines are a good counterweight to the negative externalities of coding agents. they will force the agentic coders to mature and be less careless with their slop.

i literally don't care about these logs because i don't need AI to get a raise. i just sit in my plain text editor and do a good job. i wonder if i can exchange my unused tokens for cash..seems fair

does it even work?
whateveracct•12m ago
surely not. surely these coding agent tools wouldn't wipe data without asking for permission. surely no developers would be so incompetent to allow them to do that. (the buck stops with those devs.)

I can understand having some moral opposition to using gen-AI or accepting AI contributions to your projects. I personally disagree with this, but it's a defensible position at least.

Trying to harm your users for using gen-AI seems like the worst type of overeager activism that does more to destroy your reputation and trust than achieve anything tangible.

I would advise against hiring the author of this change in any kind of hypothetical scenario where I get a vote based on this behavior alone.
