I like the idea of bringing back the BBS over SSH but

This codebase was largely built with AI assistance and is set up for that workflow.

- CONTRIBUTING.md

Nah, I'll stick to IRC.

I'm getting misty eyed just thinking about it 🥺

Who cares? If it is good and works, I don’t care who or what wrote the code.

Who cares?

The people who actually spent the time writing the code and documenting it, remember these LLM’s have to learn from somewhere.

A lot of repositories use the GPL license.

The GNU General Public Licenses are a series of widely used free software licenses. The GPL is a copyleft license, which means that it guarantees end users the freedom to run, study, share, or modify the software, but if you distribute a derivative work or modification, you must provide the source code to those recipients under the same or equivalent license terms — there is no requirement to publish anything to the public at large.

I doubt many LLM’s are sighting their sources or giving proper credit when they spit out code snippets.

Me. I don't want to get hacked.

Don't use machine-generated code. Either it's a small snipped you'll easily understand. Or it's such a vast amount, that you can't claim any responsibity over it anyway (and if you can't, don't ship).

LLM can be a help, but they can't be your coder.

Do you not trust your ssh client to be secure? You should be able to connect to the most broken and vulnerable machine and an attacker should still only be able to know your IP and little more information about you.

You are not running any machine generated code on your PC though?

[–] theherk@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

I’ve really been enjoying this today. Neat project.

I have returned to the land of my people.

MIT licensing 🤮

[–] Reddfugee42@lemmy.world -4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I bet you can't elaborate

[–] aproposnix@piefed.social 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'll bet I can.

[–] x7HlPDq9dSNO6v3A9@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Do you fancy giving it a go for an uneducated potato such as myself? Never heard of the MIT license hate before.
