Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

who up continvoucly morging they branches
It's morgin' time
*morgin' timn
morgin' all muh featues
~(credit)~
wait, was this brain-rotting cognitive hazard posted at the linked page on microsoft dot com documentation? if so they have already removed it
edit: archive caught it
what I'm thinking about is for how many years now they have been promising that just one more datacenter will fix the "hallucinations", yet this mess is indistinguishable from nonsense output from three years ago. I see "AI" is going well
you can count on microslop to always be behind the curve
I checked yesterday and it was there, can confirm
hate it when you are working on a major featue for the next release but tim keeps continvoucly morging
Two thoughts:
That this is not just some random AI generated graphic, but from official Microsoft tutorial is unpleasantly unsurprising.
I think the tinm (timn ?) axis goes the wrong way.
That slopped-out "diagram" plagiarised Vincent Driessen’s “A successful Git branching model”, BTW.
It's funny that such a thing is rare enough in the corpus to come out so recognizably in the output.
ime much like the SAFe diagrams, this diagram is all over a certain type of “this is how your corporation should be developing software” thotleader posts
(although I imagine the lag 2~3y all those heads have pivoted to promptpraise)

@froztbyte > ugly ... careless, blatantly amateuristic, and lacking any ambition
That's the most on point description of AI Slop I've seen so far.
@froztbyte The origin story of “morged”!
Microsoft is really putting the "git" in GitHub thanks to copilot.
yes, I certainly do know how to handle software development over Timn
it is actually kinda incredible that this shit has invented a way to be terrible that we can't actually easily riff off by what's expressable in unicode. an unholy clusterfuck of what would otherwise be be joked about as keming (but isn't because it's straight-up an artefact of the process used to encode visual data from source data, badly), a mindless automaton outputting garbage, and then also the shitty model
and people keep telling me this shit is good
I mean, this one is really good, I got like half an hour of jokes with my friend off it
okay I can't argue with that outcome

You have to wonder about that Tim traveler; Merlin?
"This pull request Merlin shall make; for I live before his time."
Tim traveller? The YouTube channel?
