| schestowitz-pi | Not only in SLOP code but ALSO in text/LLM SLOP a lot boils down to "BROKEN PROTOTYPE" which would take longer to FIX (like weak voice dictation) than it would take to do it properly "from scratch". Keyboards have a purpose and people still use keyboards because they get the job done properly, without faking productivity (not the same as click counts). | Aug 08 08:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | If you cannot and do not know how to code, then yes, slop is faster than nothing, but similarly, if you're unable to cook, eating junk food is better than starving | Aug 08 08:28 |
| techtrights-sec6 | broken code which no one understands == legacy code | Aug 08 08:30 |
| techtrights-sec6 | LLMs are thus legacy code generators, at best | Aug 08 08:30 |
| techtrights-sec6 | and that wastes a lot of developer time investigating the | Aug 08 08:30 |
| techtrights-sec6 | legacy code and rewriting it as necessary | Aug 08 08:30 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Junk food is a good analogy, but the definition of legacy code does include | Aug 08 08:30 |
| techtrights-sec6 | by nature LLM slop. | Aug 08 08:30 |
| techtrights-sec6 | A skilled developer must spend time analyzing the code before being able | Aug 08 08:30 |
| techtrights-sec6 | to use it. That's less time effective than just about any other option. | Aug 08 08:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | When Daniel Lemier is not busy shilling c# and other microsoftism he shows how poor the code spewed out by LLMs is | Aug 08 08:32 |
| schestowitz-pi | If you want to make money, find a gainful job, don't "mine crypto". The same goes for LLMs. | Aug 08 08:33 |

| techtrights-sec6 | The US has been maneuvered into a position, over decaded, where it | Aug 08 16:36 |
| techtrights-sec6 | is neither viable as a nation nor salvagable. The implosion will | Aug 08 16:36 |
