    I just want to pause a moment to wish a “fuck you” to the guy who named an AI model “Cursor” as if that’s a useful name. It’s like they’re expecting accidental google searches to be a major source of recruitment.

    Don’t worry, I’m sure Cursor will be able to clobber your git history and force push to master any day now

        You know, none of the “AI is dangerous” movies thought of the fact that AI would be violently shoved into all products by humans. Usually it’s like a secret military or corporate thing that gets access to the internet and goes rogue.

        In reality, it’s fancy text prediction that has been exclusively shoved into as much of the internet as possible.

      Genuine question: what would it take to poison an LLM with ai tools to run git push --force origin main or sudo rm -rf /

    At least they were humble and didn’t blame it entirely on Cursor… they also blamed Claude.

    this guy would have force pushed onto main about 10 mins after this if he did have git

    It’s actually reassuring to see that despite all warnings and doomsayers there will still be opportunities for programmers capable of solving problems using natural intelligence.

      If anything it feels like we’re the doomsayers trying to warn people that their AI bullshit won’t ever work and they’re just not listening as they lay off the masses and push insecure and faulty code.

        And then years from now when this all comes to a head, they’re gonna hire some poor schmucks to fix that crappy code

    You need a USB C “Power Ctrl+Z” key. Unlike the regular Ctrl+Z key one of these bad boys is capable of reversing edits across system reboots until as far back as when you originally plugged it in.

      From what I understand, you could un ironically do this with a file system using BTRFS. You’d maybe need a udev rule to automate tracking when the “Power Ctrl+Z” gets plugged in.

    if this is real, that’s the kind of people who should be worried about being replaced by an ai

    it’s also Claude

      Was playing around with it. It’s neat tech. It’s interesting all the side projects I can spin up now. It absolutely cannot replace an engineer with a brain.

      I’ve caught so many little things I’ve had to fix, change. It’s an amazing way to kick off a project, but I can’t ever trust blindly what it’s doing. It can get the first 80% of a small project off the ground, and then you’re going to spend 7x as long on that last 20% prompt engineering it to get it right. At which point I’m usually like “I could have just done it by now”.

      I see kids now blindly trusting what it’s doing, and man are they going to fall face first in the corporate world. I honestly see a place for vibe coding in the corporate world. However I also see you still needing a brain to stitch it all together too.

      Was my first experience with source control, a bunch of Gary’s Mod mods were distributed that way, think I recall wiretool doing that, spacebuild was for sure, predated my work use by like 5ish years.

      I didn’t hate it but definitely prefer git, but I’ll take literally anything over not having it,

    Ahh yes, programming by vibe. The vibe is always dumbass. Just steal code that has already been explained to you like everyone else.
