dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

There's so many AI slop decomps right now, it fucking sucks. There's a lot of people that doesn't even understand the basics of coding doing it just to get these stuff running and it's so obvious it is gonna be abandoned because the prompter doesn't even know how to fix the bugs people file for their projects.

This is specially bad in the game decomp scene. Good thing there are actual good recomps/decomps being made, like SymphonyRecomp and MediEvilRecomp.

I get using AI to help with the more repetitive stuff and under really strict supervision, but there's way too many stuff just entirely vibecoded right now.

Yes and the existence of the vibe coded project deters new projects with real effort from even occurring because people don't want to compete with other projects or stir drama by being a competing project. Additionally you know anything the serious project does is just gonna end up contributing to the vibe coded project which is a good reason for people not to want to do it. The very existence of this shit reduces the existence of better things.

Eh, 'Yet another' is like at the core of the computing community. Nobody's out there complaining about a lack of Doom ports or Linux Distros.

It's getting one foot in the door though. Humans can deslop the code later on

[–] Hermes@hexbear.net 5 points 46 minutes ago

"one foot in the door" is as useful as an "ideas guy", which is not at all. Producing slop themed around a project provides no value for anyone else who actually wants to work on it. If anything, skilled humans avoid working for free on projects or ideas associated with LLMs.

As you are an engineering student, you should be embarrassed for posting this comment.

It's way, way harder to undo bad code than it is to write good code first.
