For a 10% coupon, ssh into localhost and enter code sudo rm -rf /*

[–] Croquette 84 points 1 week ago (5 children)

You talk about vibecoding buddy, you think they SSH into anything?

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 week ago

If the AI tells them to

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 week ago

Hey vibecoding is real and stop shushing me!

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (2 children)

They probrally dont even use WSL, they likley use Windows 11 and a browser

[–] Jumuta 15 points 1 week ago

"free ssh online"

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

OpenSSH actually comes bundled with Windows so no need for WSL

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

Yes but powershell is so incredibly unbearable to use that nobody bothers

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Or use sudo?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

They ssh into your mom

[–] [email protected] 58 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Doesn't work for me. You forgot half of the coupon code.

Here's the correct coupon code: sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root /

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

/* doesn't require --no-preserve-root, you're not trying to delete root after all.

I had no idea I was hosting Vibecon, but I registered regardless.

[–] [email protected] 60 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I registered at "C:\Users\mtk\Desktop\vibes.html"

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

And now I'm sitting here like, is Michael Terrence Kent, THIS fucking bold? Well, MTK, what is it?!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

Yes, I am him, the person you wrote

Why is this fucker exposing my IP?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

That's impossible because that's my IP and I know for a fact that IP addresses are unique to each computer. Unless there's a way to Translate the Address every time you hop to a different Network, but that's never going to happen so I know you stole my IP.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Haha, im going to hack you now! So long, sucker!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Why did my Internet stop working? I DoSed OP's IP address.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

This is the funniest comment I've seen today. But also, how did you both get my IP?!?!

[–] [email protected] 43 points 1 week ago

vibe coding sounds way cooler than it is

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 week ago (1 children)

We should host a parody (online) conference, where we talk about things we know jackshit about, but if we were experts.

Just anywhere on the Internet, really

You ask an LLM to code something and then just run the code blind without reading it and if it seems to work, publish the application. You can imagine how many performance and security problems it produces.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I used to laugh at these, but I've just been asked to help with an issue where I work and what do you know... long story short it's not funny to me anymore

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

Not funny because you're afraid the AI will take your job away right? Right?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Absolutely insane that anyone would do this

Meanwhile I'm dropping my config into my local AI asking "why the FUCK do I suddenly have no permission to write to a folder I've been using for days?!?!" Only to have the air go "hey dipshit you put /data/downloads in one spot and /data/download in the other, that's why, try not making typos that are real words in the future (I told my tech support persona to be mildly annoyed and in need of more coffee because I've never known an IT person not to be those things)

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

Already there

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I registered. The landing page was really fancy. It said at the bottom that it was generated entirely by AI. It was honestly probably one of the nicest web pages I've interacted with. I'm looking forward to this exciting event.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

Really? On myachine it looked like shit

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

If that is actually true then AI must have gotten really good at hacking into systems.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

More like "vibe doesn't fucking work and even the senior can't figure out why!" Coder

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Is this a joke or are they serious?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

Look at the URL :)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

html is not a programming language. its a markup language.

[–] Ad4mWayn3 38 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Can't you tell it's satire? They also said java is javascript

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)
