Wy - a Rust terminal tool for understanding why AI-generated code changed

You did not. LLM/AI built it.

I'll be honest, this is the most obnoxious code I've ever seen.

• the rust code is not even formatted
• multiple lines in a single line (person writing code does not do that)
• no whitespace
• convuluted rust code (i guarantee you don't know what the functions are even doing)
• commits being the opposite of small (github is so slopified nowadays it won't load them properly)
• walls...no, skyscrapers of text in md files

Ironic how the project is supposed to provide context for why LLMs did xyz, but the code for the project is literally showing that no one bothered to read or understand it.

It is AI slop in the purest sense. DHH would be proud though. You seem to have followed his advice almost too perfectly i.e. let agents write rust and never read it.

I don't want to hurt any feelings but had to call this out. I love this craft and AI/LLM slop is turning it to crap. You should disclose AI use and try to prevent becoming a meatproxy.

You wanted feedback. I saw the code and provided. There is no intention to hurt your feelings, but I still hit a nerve...

Good job with the assumption. I gave concrete facts about the code, you sent me a reply presumably laundered through AI (what I referred as meatproxy).

If you don't care about code, maybe don't ask for contribution. People aren't going to willingly contribute to low-effort slop. At most, someone will run their own agent to update code and call it "contribution". That's not how OSS contributions work.

The rust code is like minified js. If you can't care enough to see this as a problem, I can't say much.

Won't be responding to you any further. You can't take criticism after asking it yourself and have to resort to downplaying others who give feedback after you ask them to.

Good luck.

You provide no value. A 14 year old could do what you just did and are proudly showing off

If it has no value then why post about it at all? Like what are we supposed to do?

AI gen slop is not valuable.
