Throwing shade at other people’s open source projects because they use AI or have npm dependencies or some other thing you have decided is evil / sloppy / bad – that is not okay

Build alternatives, fork, improve – succeed on merit through your aspirations and accomplishment – not by putting labels on others and sinking them

In other news, considering picking up this campaign + a campaign against tools that in any way use the color green. The color of 🤢 only brings harm to society and people’s wellbeing – that’s self evident

Considering banning contributions to my OSS projects written on non-mechanical keyboards. We all know that keyboards affect how code is written and I think it’s time that we all stand up to the recklessness of rubber membrane written code. This is about work environment, welfare and code quality.

Nope, it’s about people labeling projects that has any AI generated code at all as being slop. (Also, what is 100% AI generated? When all the code is generated by AI or when everything – code, architecture, boilerplate, best practices etc – has been defined and generated by AI?)

Fair! I think its more when a PR was opened by an agent, and is caught by reading contribution guidelines which make it say "I'm a stupid bot, close this PR". Which is valid, AI is good as a tool, but not as an autonomous developer with free reign

Totally agree (and ironically, when people blankly disregard anything “tainted” by AI as being “slop” they act about as nuanced as that very AI behavior)
