Before, there was a chance to spot it (and things like XZ Utils backdoor were rare), now it will be well hidden in the ocean of slop PRs.

I came to conclusion that a lot of these interviews just nerds revenge lol (20+ yoe in faangs).

but just imagine the brave new world, where a law firm has super-duper-frontier model and you're trying to argue with it in a court with your latest best local oss model (only 6 month behind the bestests ones).

"That's the point: just pump the shit and offload it to retail. Yeah, it's less than 1% of the S&P 500, so who would even notice?"

Isn't it a nice bussiness, pulling 2% from sp500, I wish I could join.

easy: 1. Shit goes into S&P 500 (pump phase)

2. Shit goes to 0. Your 401(k) invested into S&P 500 takes a dive (dump phase)

3. Retail holding bags (full of shit) phase.

Case study: Tesla, with a P/E ratio in the hundreds along with declining sales and TAM, is a part of the S&P 500 and, consequently, of many people's 401(k)s.

Except it's not vibecoded, it's litteraly the best prompt an LLM can ever get - literal code. If the whole thing ends up as a failure, then it will show that the king is naked.

If you don't do it for every update, then there is no real point in doing that in the first place.

Same (Only some default plugins, and from known sources), and VS code even don't have a html preview functionality so I had to vibecode one (took about 10 mins, e2e).

We're trying to outsmart The Genie(a Jinn) now. He will deliver according to the letter of the prompt but not the spirit of it.

I now think AI is a virus, which infects whatever it touches. Not just software, but the books (there're already slopbooks printed, and I'm not talking about fiction books, but rather real textbooks, history, music, art, etc...). In XX years what can you even trust? We will adapt and get around it, but I'm not yet sure how.
