      What is slop, though? What’s your definition?

        Copy paste output without validation and/or effort.

          That’s a good definition, in fact I am bookmarking that to remember later.

        Slop is just low effort in my view.

        So if you just generate with ai without any real thought, thats slop because it is low effort.

        The people posting just the “never slop” kitto are low effort too.

          That seems to leave room for fully vibe coded apps as long as it’s made with real thought and effort. Some of the anti-AI absolutists are going to have a problem with that.

            Fuck absolutist in general and under any circumstances.

            What does vibe coded mean to you?

            As I understand vibe coded means just pressing enter without checking the code and understanding it?

              I’ve always interpreted it as not actually typing any of the code yourself. At least that seems to be the way people that are angry about it are using it.

                That’s the line I draw. Same with art or anything else. I’m okay with using AI as an oracle or a tool to check work but the finished product should be human brain -> human hands -> project

                For me it doesn’t matter if you type it as long as you understand it and it makes sense how it is written.

        If they didn’t hire someone to generate code or art, then it’s slop.

          FWIW it wasted a few moments of my time wondering what point they were trying to make.

            Some shitposting will be easy to catch, funny, digestible & smart while being absolute worthless.

            Some shitposting will be bad, some will be good.

            But if anything, we can always count on it being shit 🫡
