@sun@shitposter.world @lain@lain.com The problem is that output from LLMs currently has a legally ambiguous status. You can not risk integrating it into any existing free software right now, so that's why a lot of projects, with some exceptions, choose not to allow it or heavily limit its usage only to specific tasks.

And on a personal note I think obvious LLM output is extremely tasteless. Seeing someone not even use some effort to at least even write their own README file makes me cringe. I always compare it to the same type of feeling you get when you see a corporate logo which uses Comic Sans.

@sun @lain @SuperDicq Learning the hard way isn't always necessarily the better way, but yes, I absolutely agree that there's merit to being able to write functional code without fancy tools like LLMs and whatnot. Though I'm not really a good programmer, so whatever I weigh in with here in regards to "how one should do it" would probably just come across as stupid and no one should even care what I say about it.

Overall, the way I got started with C was probably just about the worst way possible, and I would have been better off reading some proper books on it. But I'm incredibly thick when it comes to learning, don't have the patience for it, and oftentimes end up just smashing my head against things until it kinda sorta sticks.
