Relevant to some extent it dictate our approach. When human does lying or cheating, certain tool can be deployed (social shame, ostracise) that cannot be effective towards LLM.

> I've put some serious work into vibe-coding them. Months of work, infinite polish, infinite revisions, without writing a single line of code.

Not being pedantic, but this is not "vibe-coding", as other commenter and blog post means it at least. Parent emphasize lack of work, polish, revisions:

> They don't care about the code they push. They generate, prune, generate, prune in 10kloc increments. They're apathetic to others who might need to use this code and expect some kind of consistent architecture/interface.

> This isn't to say all LLM users don't care about their work, but that there are far more people who are happy to push slop and take credit than the reverse.

> Andrew's job isn't to make a JS runtime

Most likely too late for edit, but Jarred is who work for Anthropic, not Andrew.

> You can be reckless even if everything ends up being perfect in the end.

This. Something I expect any person who think they are "engineer" to understand without thinking.

Quite right. I bemoan shortsightedness of managerial types often, but too many fellow techies had assume that gravy ride will last forever. In eyes of management we have not the same leverage now.

Competition. Using my open source projects directly doesn't kill my employment. AI company explicitly say they want to put me out of work, using my code aginst me.

Need time and effort to ensure junior docs are thorough. Usually multiple revision in my experience. This require acceptance from management that "just write code fast" is not a success path.

Not a good look. But to precise, user had already second-highest score long prior to period of posting AI work. In that case AI answers did not affect ranking.

Some system have GNU, some BSD.

> but in an implicit structure that 'leader' is quickly sidelined when people figure out the quality of their decisions are poor

More likely to end up in turf war unless exist legible means to transition leadership. Some members will stick with old leader for various reason, some will push for new, some will be unawares and courted to choose their side. Person in leadership does not most likely give it up quietly and immediately.
