Those aren't the only metrics, quality and efficiency is also important. AIslop is of higher quality than devslop on average.
- entropi 4mo ago> AIslop is of higher quality than devslop on average. Is it? If by higher quality, you mean commenting properly, sticking to naming conventions etc. I can agree. But to me, AIslop looks like it lacks "intentionality" of code written by devs, no matter how bad they are at naming things and sticking to conventions. i.e. people who are adequately good at their jobs usually do things for a reason, and they can explain it. Even if you don't find it agreeable, it usually is consistent.
- gchamonlive 4mo agoIs it AI that lacks intentionality or your prompts? Just remember we are comparing slops. If you care about your code it really doesn't matter if you write it manually or with the help of a glorified typewriter.

- gchamonlive 4mo agoIt can't be good, you aren't seeing the slop
- arcatech 4mo ago> AIslop is of higher quality than devslop on average. How did you come to that conclusion? That goes against everything I've heard from people who understand development. Every resource I can find about AI vs non-AI development comes to the exact opposite conclusion you did.
- gchamonlive 4mo agoDevslop is spaghetti code that grows organically. AIslop is overly complicated code that someone neglected to read. I just distrust the former more than the latter.
- Anamon 4mo agoThe former has the advantage that there's some person you can go to and ask "what the heck, what were you thinking when you wrote this?" The result can be either or both sides seeing it from a different perspective, having a productive discussion to find a good solution, and either or both sides potentially learning something. None of that is possible with the LLM flavour of slop. I can ask, but I will just get more brainless slop to describe the original slop in other words. It's a soliloquy that I find neither helpful nor interesting.
- gchamonlive 4mo agoI see you never had to work on slop left by someone that left the company ages ago leaving behind pain and misery.
