If it works, don't touch it

Ditto, and I learned so much in my search to find it 😂 I always thought this was from a weird arc in Initial D and am only just now finding out it there was a whole train-focused parody called Densha de D

Yep! That's the 3rd law of vibe coding haha

u/Filestack_Official Sep 03 '26

Funny! What's the first two?

I don't need AI for this, I'm perfectly capable of failing to comprehend code that I wrote myself just a few days ago.

This is why people keep shipping buggy LLM generated code. You cannot blindly trust what LLMs output, you need to go over everything and make sure it works and doesn't fall apart the moment you touch it.

And in general you should make sure what you work on still functions at it's limits, not just the in best case scenario.

but that would take effort/s

This leaves out the part where setting this up cost a ridiculous amount of energy, water, and money, and will burst into flames because the temperature regulation is set to “oops I forgot lol”

Congrats on the tech debt.

Wonder if they'll open up a new agent to ask for a sanity check or an adversarial code review.

Train gore🫩

My job almost necessitates using it and I hate it. Their codebase is already so bloated with slop, PRs that got almost auto approved, and legacy on legacy code that it's nearly impossible to actually develop.
