Thoughts on Replit? (lemmy.zip)

So some backstory here: I’m pretty much anti-AI, but I try to stay on top of things so I can make informed recommendations to leadership. Recently , they’ve come to me interested in using Replit “because it’s so easy” and they almost have a site built out how they want.

Besides the fact that it’s managed to blow up and nuke production, what are some pros/cons about it? I’m worried about things like BCDR, vulnerability scanning, separation of duties, etc. You know all the base things you should have in place too.

Since I've never talked an idiot out of doing something stupid, I focus on selling them my help "deploying" it.

My amazing skills can help their stupid shit make it past security and legal, at the low low cost of sometimes a quiet complete re-write.

It usually works because idiots are also bad at mathb (or just magic thinking, carefully ignoring that their stupid added more cost than it saved.)
