GrapheneOS is currently defending its use of AI coding tools on Mastodon against complaints by various accounts claiming to be users.

We do not understand where you're coming from or why you're so incredibly angry with us. It's not justified and does not make sense.

Why are coders so desperate to replace themselves with ai?

...

(Obligatory not all coders. I know there are many that hate ai and hate being required to use it at work, but its really starting to feel like they’re in the minority)

Because real coders are no fucking luddites who cannot see that they defend a ship that is not only sinking, its deck is already submerged. You either accept that the oh so glorious past is gone, dead and buried and move on or you become some weird neckbeard who defends coding using ed via teletype.

    In my experience, it's always those weird neckbeards who are constantly trying to push me for neovim or emacs also thinking I should have started vibe coding by yesterday, because they can ship much more lines of code, and who cares about code quality or performance when you can claim you've written 983744892736487645 lines of code.
