NX is build software. You write your code on your laptop, you press “build”, it runs NX, and you get a built version you can put onto your web server. If you could hack NX, you could hit a lot of p…

    The people who believe in keeping their wealth in imaginary computer money also being into vibe-coding is the most hilarious possible outcome. It’s an inexhaustible cavalcade of clownfuckery.

      Having just left a job in the crypto space, the venn diagram of crypto bros and vibe coders is a single fucking circle.

      These people hop from one hype train to the next like moths to a flame.

        I’m no authority on the subject but when I use “imaginary” to refer to money I mean it isn’t backed by anything. Most currencies are backed by a government, stocks are nominally backed by the profitability of the business that issued the stock, futures by commodities, etc. Crypto is traded like securities but has nothing backing it at all other than people’s willingness to buy it from you at a given price.

        Like many things it boils down to how you define your terms, “imaginary” in this case.

    Oh sweet baby Jesus. That is some astonishing code for validating the title and body of a PR.

          - name: Create PR message file
        run: |
          mkdir -p /tmp
          cat > /tmp/pr-message.txt << 'EOF'
          ${{ github.event.pull_request.title }}
          
          ${{ github.event.pull_request.body }}
          EOF

    Put a single-line EOF in your pull request body, follow it up with a completely arbitrary set of Bash commands, whatever you damn well like, put all the environment variables with the repository secrets into a webhook request and send them off somewhere, make sure you terminate it with another cat > /dev/null << 'EOF' to match the other EOF. Now you can compromise the entire project by raising a pull request.

    Funny how crypto hype and AI hype both rely so heavily on nvidia hardware.

      I charge clients a premium for that. Mostly because I don’t want to deal with it, but if they’re desperate enough it can be a lucrative side gig

      That’s where I’m making my money. Went from a freelance/consultant dev to pretty much a digital janitor for companies. it IS the next big industry.

      Get good at code reviewing - hell really you don’t even need to be that good at it all you need to do is know the typical Claude Code comments and search for a lot of “#TODO’s”

      I make more money doing this now than I did just being a developer. If you’re looking for work I HIGHLY suggest you deal with the crap on Linkedin and start advertising yourself as an expert code reviewer with a specialty in diagnosing “AI generated builds”. Then wait for the desperate companies to start trickling in.

        On one hand, that sounds like a good way to make money. On the other hand, it would be really funny watching all those companies relying on AI too much collapse

          oh they will and my year long stint of making a good decent amount of money isn’t going to last. And that’s fine, I’ll be back to being an actual dev again.

          I know it’s not going to last and since I’m charging a premium for what I’m doing most of it is going right towards retirement.

        It’s a great saying so it’s fun when it actually applies…

        Though every time I think of the Veep episode where she gets in trouble for saying she was “hoisted by her own retard” after an incompetent staffer fucks up lol

    Vibe coders exist to make sure that real coders never run out of work.

    They have the same relationship like motor bike enthusiasts and emergency room doctors.

      Vibe coders this past year have made me a lot of money. I’ve pretty much transitioned from being a freelance dev to a digital janitor as it makes me more money. Just code reviewing their slop. It’s extremely easy too, much easier than reviewing code of an actual dev.

      “We need you to review this and see why it doesn’t work” /me opens up nvim and does a / for #TODO that was written by Claude “the AI didn’t implement it but said it did…I’ll take my $2500 now thank you”
