Sharing here. Must be good to have my whole sub deleted lol!

This is a clone of the original sub that was on lemmy.ml, I'm not really sure who the mod/owner is here.

Lol is it actually vibe coded? If so, then I kinda understand the decision, even if it was done in the douchiest way possible.

I don't understand why some people think they can AI generate security sensitive apps? You're not the first I've seen. This is like the worst possible scenario for AI codegen. It's so wild, I honestly can't tell if it's sarcasm or not whenever I see one.

There's a popular meme where Google Gemini says that geologists recommend you eat 3 rocks per day or something like that, and it's funny, but also an example of how insanely dangerous it can be for someone who lacks knowledge/experience in a topic to rely on AI. I don't think many people will actually believe they should eat rocks, but they'll definitely believe it if Gemini recommends incorrect dosage for some medication.

Using vibe-coded software for anything security-related is the same thing, albeit not as (immediately) hazardous to your health.

  • Don't use security-sensitive vibe coded apps
  • Don't let friends use security-sensitive vibe coded apps
  • Don't make security-sensitive vibe coded apps
  • Don't take this personally, if you're making security-sensitive vibe coded apps

No it's not vibe coded at all. I know exactly what this program is doing line for line.
