No. My blender art is C.R.A.P…

We had a meeting today and they indeed pushed into it more. So I’ll probably token max when prompted. It’s only the transition period for now and most of our code is still written by hand so it’s easy to keep it off until the sloppening is fully there.

We are not reducing employees tho. We are actually hiring due to our very specific field.

But yeah, I’ll probably token max at one point sadly

But I love fixing the tech dept lol. It actually make me learn the different systems

CI is not applicable here (It’s really a special type of development workflow I’d love to burn to the ground but coworkers can barely remember to commit on SVN…)

As for tickets, i wouldn’t trust AI on any of it. Even with an MCP tailored to our app it keeps hallucinating (might be due to the lack of documentation). The only thing it’s good at is code gen, which is 20% of tickets…

Also addendum: we can talk about realistic deadlines, it’s not the issue. The issue is that the deadlines should be set with Claude in mind. I cannot ask for more time just because I’m the hippy that doesn’t vibe code.

And for what I got forced to use, it’s not that bad? It is faster and with my style of coding it doesn’t make many errors. Still wouldn’t use it for ethical reasons. But for one that do not care about ethics, this could see it as an invaluable tool

Good analysis, unfortunately it is false. We are literally 9 people, and our workload is maxed. We are trying to recruit but it’s a really specific line of development so it’s rare there’s anyone (and when they do they may be more interested in bigger enterprises)

The pressure comes from

1. bad docs slowing humans, but not AI,
2. our software provider asking us to use AI before doing tickets,
3. I am the only one that is anti ai, and despite my complaining they continued
4. “Ok here’s this script to be made, you have 5 days before the client migration we need it ready, tested, and prepared to go live, just use Claude to do it as it’s faster”. I did use Claude for that one, not because I wanted to, I’d love to write that on my own, but the deadline is impossible for even a experienced developer in that specific field.

I have come to terms with the AI usage, and I won’t change job as AI is the only bad part in it, and I might change to a company being even more into slop…

I am just looking to see how I could fight it and whether making anthropic loose even more money is worth the environmental concerns

No no. The Linus from Linus tech tips. He once said “Yes, do as I say” to prompt to uninstall the desktop environment, then got surprised when there was no DE anymore

The issue is that there’s a little Linus Sebastian pushing devs to “yes, do as I say”

Situation: there is 14 standards

People assume my username is because I write rust. Nah. Rust came after I had it for a few years.

Also

Please don’t add AI to hell. It’s supposed to be punishment for the sinners, not to punish to us management.

Is that one of Plankton’s robots?

Submited my project but IDK if it will pass. Apart from the agent honeypot, my policy is brutally honest and I’m not quite sure if it will pass the purist review.

The policy is MIT licensed if anyone wants: https://codeberg.org/RustyNova016/ai_policy

Something done with my human hands :3

I mostly write rust, and unless the struct represent data, I will make the fields private. And it happens I forget to make getters for it…

I would definitely use AI to create those… If it wasn’t so ethically shitty… (would prefer a vscodium extension to also auto generate those)

I’m not against a policy. I’m just choosing a policy like “99.9% of slop will get rejected” policy .

Although I never really experienced bad low effort PRs. Either it was small changes with no other ways to do X, which I merged with a “please don’t use AI in the future, it’s bad blah blah blah”… or the entire project forked, updated to an unstable version, and full on slop that I reject

Yeah there’s is some of those, but a lot of people just don’t click to read it

I personally think their criteria for no AI is a bit too much. While I am 100% against slop code, if someone does a PR on my code that adds a constructor or a few getters, I wouldn’t refuse it just because “it’s tainted with AI.”

Yes I would have preferred it if it wasn’t. Yes I will give them a talking to. But I’m not going to refuse their PR either as a human would do the exact same thing as the LLM produced. It’s just unproductive, wasted time and compute for no reason.

And with a fully against AI policy, that just makes people hide their usage of AI, making it even harder to find the slop code.

At this point I just give up. You make your whole workflow around something and then a week later an AGENTS.md is commited to the repository

I’d still try to avoid it when there’s alternatives but damn this is so tiring

As much as I like steam, this perfectly demonstrate how great competition is to improve stuff.

Now if only they would stop shooting themselves…

Another veliona like characters to add to the list
