You assume humans don’t ever write sloppy code and Linux Torvalds has never before encountered someone wanting to merge in sloppy code before.
damn dude, did you completely fail reading and comprehension? because you’re replying to a link to me pointing that exact fuckin thing out.
maybe slow down and try harder.
like, it’s in the link title text, right there.
People that are actually good at programming know what good code is.
as long as they stay proficient. but prolonged exposure to AI slop tends to have a damaging effect - thenewstack.io/karpathy-says-developers-have-ai-p…
so I stick with my premise: how long before it has an effect on him?

Do you completely fail at critical thinking? I’ll slow it down so you can understand: Linus sees sloppy code written by a human Linus sees sloppy code written by an AI Why did #1 not corrupt him have decades, but #2 definitely will? There is no reason, sloppy code is sloppy code whether written by a human or written by an AI. You’re equating shitty developers becoming vibe coders with a skilled software engineer using a tool. I think you just don’t know the difference between a junior developer and a senior software engineer. Maybe you just don’t have any experience in software development and are just reading articles on random websites.
