Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

So how do you tell apart AI contributions to open source from human ones?
GitHub, for one, colors the icon red for AI contributions and green/purple for human ones.
Ah, right, so we're differentiating contributions made by humans with AI from some kind of pure AI contributions?
It's a joke, because rejected PRs show up as red on GitHub, open (pending) ones as green, and merged as purple, implying AI code will naturally get rejected.
I appreciate you explaining it. My LLM wasn't working so I didn't understand the joke
Jesus Howard Christ how did you manage to even open a browser to type this in
yeah I just want to point this out
myself and a bunch of other posters gave you solid ways that we determine which PRs are LLM slop, but it was really hard to engage with those posts so instead you’re down here aggressively not getting a joke because you desperately need the people rejecting your shitty generated code to be wrong
with all due respect: go fuck yourself
