anyway I’ve been looking up packages lately for specific purposes and I keep getting very new, very confident packages that seem to solve my exact problem!

the repos hide it but I can tell within seconds they’re slop by how their readmes look, and when I dig into the commit log it becomes even more obvious

and then the repo owner just admits it in conversation because again these embarrassing fuckers can’t ever shut the fuck up even when they’re trying to trick you

they want a pat on the head for fooling you into thinking they did a good job, that’s the point of an LLM

@zzt ...oh. It's like chronic smokers thinking nobody can tell they're a smoker if they just put out their cigarette before walking inside. Then insisting that their sense of smell works just fine, and the people complaining about the smell are putting it on.

Kitten, the stench emanating from your clothes is the giveaway; we don't need to see you actually holding a cigarette.

“you couldn’t tell it was slop if I lied” said the same fried brain that thinks “Key Takeaways 🚀” is a feature of a readme any fucking human wrote

it’s so weird that I won’t take advice on the nature and dynamics of lying from the most unpleasant men I’ve encountered in my field, as they tell me themselves that they’d rather lie to my face than respect my boundaries and my consent

you know, maybe the fuckers unabashedly telling us they’d lie at the first inconvenience are, in fact, misrepresenting the situation in some way in order to extract an advantage over us
