Re: "Been seeing this term around the internet recently, called "โฆ"
I've personally had good experiences with Claude generating a function or a very small portion of code pretty decently and correctly, but I haven't tried making whole projects with it, let alone anything more than like a 25 lines max. It sounds kinda like a pain to use it exclusively for a whole project, honestly, lol.
I agree, if you can't read the code generated by an LLM to know whether it's correct or not, then that's really not a great thing.

I would love to have some kind of "code authority" institutions that verify the integrity and safety of code in OS projects. It'd help non-programmers evaluate the safety of code, and would provide some kind of imprimatur for a codebase' safety, LLM-free status, and bloat levels. I wish I could read/understand every line of code on running on my machine, but realistically... that's not going to happen.

I'm old enough to remember IRC. The prank we would play on people is "hey you can get IRC Operator status by just pressing Alt+F4!" then watching a bunch of people leave. Using an LLM to code without understanding what you're reading is a bit like that. Is it still social engineering if it's an LLM?

Been seeing this term around the internet recently, called "Vibe Coding", and I finally looked it up. What that absolute heck?!? ๐คฃ
