Linux filesystem developers MUST have a pair programming session at least once a week to stave off psychosis.

Frequency of sessions MUST be increased as symptoms show or worsen.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if something like that popped up very soon. Probably is in the works on someone’s drive already.

      I remember hearing an arugment against AI coding that if it’s so good, why aren’t there apps popping up left and right? Which was true at the time.

      Now? In the past month, I’ve seen a pretty in-depth Murloc-tamagotchi addon in WoW (that kills your FPS), a whole open-source custom World of Warcraft client, an E2E Tor-based messenger (that signs messages with 128b CBC key), a game engine based on a lost Standart Model of physics that was mentioned by Tesla, but lost to time, that someone reverse engineered (which had very TempleOS vibes, as far as the authors mental state goes), a Matrix protocol on Cloudfare microservices (that skipped message signature verification), and I could go on.

      Open-source is going to become a hell to navigate. I was already anxious about using FOSS tools due to malicious typosquatting clones, supply chain attacks and general security of using someone’s FOSS code on my PC. Now, add vibe coded shit to the mix, and finding a good FOSS projects and tools will be hell :(

        The scary part is the mental state he was able to get into with only a randomly generated text. If you haven’t already seen it, I highly recommend the Into the Rabbit Hole video about it, although it’s pretty heartbreaking. So much wasted talent.

        There’s people like him who are similarly psychotic, but couldn’t usually get to the point where they could access a tool that would trigger them. Personalized chatbots were mostly a niche non-tech savy person doesn’t really get to that easily.

        Now, it’s everywhere. A lot of people will loose their sanity over this.
