Lol, I’m surprised it only took two days.
2 days for him to realize something wrong
I’m surprised it took two whole days :p
His first mistake is to call it AI.
AI will not replace software engineers, exhibit fuck knows how many.
Bet you $1,000 the credentials are stored in plain text.
I’ve never seen an LLM response be cavalier with credentials.
I’ve never seen the Holocaust happen with my own eyes either. Must not have happened.

Wonder if ChatGPT just scraped an example token from somewhere and is using that.
PLACEHOLDER_TOKEN
Not exactly related, but I run an unraid game server for friends and use a lot of the preconstructed docker apps for games.
Most of them come with the server name preset and the server password preset.
I’ve jumped into many a “private” server called Docker-GAMENAME with the password still set to “Docker”
I think it was some XMPP related server I ran quite a few years ago which had ‘i_have_read_the_manual = 0’ or something similar buried into default configuration file. And it would just silently exit if that variable was not set properly.
Maybe we need more things like that.
And it would just silently exit if that variable was not set properly.
Would’ve used that debug log to scold the end-user. “If you’ve actually read the first 3 lines of the documentation you wouldn’t be seeing this.”
It’s in a textbook, and that’s a trusted source!
What are they, Sony?
Classic vibe coder things.
I’ve heard that phrase a handful of times now and it’s already making my eye twitch. Though I don’t think it’s meant to be complimentary.
Bow before the machine spirit! Taste the fruit of its wisdom!
Not just plain text, but hard coded.
On the frontend.
Having a backend is bloat. I do all my DB transactions straight from the frontend
My db runs on the user’s browser via WASM.
I actually build a full copy of the DB on the client machine. That way I can’t lose the data, it’s all right there and so fast.
Obviously hand coded. After all, he just discovered that there are people, or more probably bots, who will use open resources for their own uses.
This is what FAFO in public looks like. Gold!
As you know I’m not technical. AI doesn’t write robust code, is that the joke?
Yes, that’s the joke.
AI creates almost (but not) good enough stuff really fast. And occasionally straight up hallucinates stuff that is meaningless or worse.
So this person has a huge stack of functional but broken crap, and it’s blaming X for their woes.
There’s an old saying that goes roughly “It takes four times the experience to maintain a program as it took to write it. So anyone writing the most clever program they can think of is, by definition, not competent to maintain it.”
In this case, it’s extra funny, because neither the AI nor the AI user has the faintest idea how the generated code works. So maintaining it is almost certainly 1000% outside their abilities.
So they’ve paid an AI for the
privilegeunpleasant daily panic of learning everything they need to learn after the app has gone to production, rather than before.It certainly isn’t good at security, which is what it sounds like his biggest problem is.
Why is he figuring things out himself? Surely that’s the AI’s job, right? Right?
What cracks me up is that he is not technical so it takes him longer than usual to figure it out :D :D :D :D
He usually figures these things out much quicker but this time he is struck by some “not being technical” illness. As soon as it passes, he will figure it out as usual.
Listen you can whine about tech or you can start building with it.
And by building, I mean telling it what it should do.
And by telling it what it should do, I mean typing out what you want.
And by telling it what you want, I mean explaining a crypto bro idea in a rant to Chat GPT.
I mean he’s not technical but I’m sure he’s really nailed this one.
Well… 2 years from now vibe coding will be default.
Show this soydev his place
F around and find out
Can I get this emotion bottled? I want to experience it at full strength later
I want it powdered so I can snort it.
Just hold your phone over it. You’ll feel a tingly sensation in your intestines, but be not afraid, you just got the emotion bottled.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
I’ve always appreciated the feature of AI coding tools, where they confidently tell you they’ve done something completely wrong. Then if you call them on it, they super-confidently say: “Of course, here’s what needs to be done…”
Then proceed to do something even worse.
Or when you say there’s something wrong and the new version is just the same with comments
Yes. I love the confidently incorrect additional comments explaining in detail how the incorrect code works.
Though I’m usually pretty angry at that point, it is also pretty funny.
ChatGPT would not let me call it “you doofus” when I point outed it had done that repeatedly. For “policy violations”.
Edit: I don’t know how I screw uped that wording, but I’m leaving it.
Because if I choose squirrel everytime I’ll never get anything done.
Yeah but you would have a lot of nuts!
