this reads like slop
- LoganDark 3mo agoSure does.
- entrope 3mo agoIt is hard to have much sympathy for someone who complains about seeing a Git commit they never made but presumably clicked "publish" for a blog post that says "a North Korea-aligned group who targets software developers specifically. Not banks. Not hospitals. Devs." Supply chain security is a huge concern nowadays, and JavaScript in config/build-chain files is a sadly long-lived threat vector against a supply chain.
- Teknomadix 3mo ago"I want to be honest about something..." This definitely reads like SLOP. It has got all those unmistakable formulations, patterning of certain phrases and lead in sentences. The signatures of slop.
- egypturnash 3mo agoImagine: You are a programmer who is all-in on LLM code generation. You get so much written every day! Hundreds of thousand lines of code, and you barely lifted a finger. But... your LLMs are trained on the entirety of Github. How many repos on there are full of trojans and viruses? How do you know that your super-productive LLM isn't copying those instead of the canonical version of whatever frameworks it's building? One day you find one. You write a blog post about it. Or, rather, the vague outline of a post. You make an LLM flesh it out, of course. You barely lift a finger.
