Yet more vibe-coded spam. For context, this is the same author who just got flagged off the front page for an LLM-written book about Lisp.

More context: haters are saying LLM generated content is bad. As a Senior Full Stack Developer with over 26 years of pro experience, I'm having the time of my life with these new AI powers and the doors and discussions they open. People are upvoting. I'm personally not getting anything from this open source sharing. You're the one calling spam. When you pay 200 a month to max your claude code output and really hunker down, think twice before you share its work. Not everyone understands.

  It is absurd to pay $200 a month for it when GitHub Copilot has agentic development basically for free for open source developers, including GPT/Claude/Gemini models. If you want to waste your own money, fine, but don't expect others to waste a single dollar of their money when decent options are available at no cost. Especially Claude is well known for wasting output tokens, for maximizing output token use when fewer tokens would do just fine, although other models too have picked up this disease as of late. Yes, better models could produce better output, especially for a large project, but in my experience, the quality of the output depends 10x more on the clarity and refinement of the input. In the real world, the bulk of engineering is incremental, not one-shot. Also, when I see a large repo with just three commits made all at once, it tells me that the vibe-coded output hasn't really been reviewed or refined over time, that it has not withstood the test of time at all, it hasn't received the love and attention it needs to make it mature, and so it cannot be trusted in this stage of its development.

    wait what??? github copilot is free??? is that only free trial?
    - OutOfHere 1y ago
      Its Pro plan is not free for everyone, but it is free for verified students, teachers, and maintainers of popular established open source projects. See https://github.com/features/copilot/plans https://github.com/features/copilot/plans . I clearly noted in my parent comment the constraint of open source developers. It's not a trial. If you get approved, you get re-evaluated each month.

  > LLM-written book about Lisp. I don't really care if you're an astronaut, time traveler, or a 15 year old. AI slop prompted by anyone is slop, and I'm a human with limited time which I'd rather not waste on slop

  This comment itself reads like AI slop.

how is this spam? it’s posted the same way as any HN post and it’s not soliciting anything.

  He’s been on a spree, “writing” and posting a dozen books or other projects in the last 2 days.
