Open Source Software Community - it's about ethics in Code of Conducts

King Terry makes an appearance!


Is it acceptable to notice patterns now? Nobody told me, I thought this was inherently racist.


No comment.


Freudian.

So my gut feeling that the retarded commercialization of "SeCUrItY", that also gave us RIIR, was the actual root source seems to be validated.
He got overwhelmed by scary security reports and CVEs and wasn't able to vet all the clever "secure" "defense in depth" stuff he flogged claude to implement properly, that he felt pressured to implement.

Its all retarded all the way down and a direct consequence of the liminal culture we live in, both inside and out of software development. Everything has to be BLAZING FAST, and BREAK THINGS because your average guy has been mentally plundered into this state of mind where he has to constantly create and consume the $HOT_NEW_THING and be outraged about the $NEW_DRAMA and campaign the $NEW_CAUSE et cetera.

"Security" is the latest thing to be co-opted by jeets, trannies and AI cultists because of its clout-giving potential, ubiquity, and how easy it is to bully people to do malign things, such as RIIR and accept AI slop PRs, in the name of muh seekurity. They all have clout to gain from finding security issues (or rather getting Claude to find them), they exist everywhere as an inherent part of all code and thus anything can be raped with PRs so they can say "saaaaaaaaaaaaaaar I contribute to open soors saaaaaaaaaaaaaaar", or to indulge their consent accident fantasies of forcing people to implement pointless shit. It hurts my fucking teeth how common cultspeak has become. "Build", "ship", "agent" and so on. If I see any of these words in an AI-adjacent context, I immediately assume the writer is brown, and if not brow, then homosexual.

Case in point:

Like many developers of open source packages I’ve been hit by a flood of security reports lately in my role as the rsync maintainer. Many of those reports are AI generated (not all though, there are some notable ones with very careful and high quality manual analysis).

Secuity is just a low hanging fruit for commiepedotroonjeets to reach for because anyone can run any code through Claude and go "find me vulns and make no mistakes saar!!!!". I legitimately think that people should employ an ATS-style syntax checker that automatically closes any security report that inludes common AI vernacular. if it is so important saar, then you can type it out by hand.

Except if AI was involved in any way, trivial or not, then it becomes an unforgivable error of biblical proportions.

I actually agree with the idea that AI should not have anything to do with core utilities like rsync that fuck around with filesystems. That can't be vibe coded.

But the absolute screaming insanity about AI being used at all, ever, is pathetic.

This is an absolutely valid use of AI. Since skiddies are going to be using AI to attack it, you might as well use AI to find what they'll find, and fix it before they do.
