Most skilled engineers, and even mildly skilled engineers don’t use slopgenerators to write code. Some of them use it sometimes to do some menial tasks, although I’m not convinced it actually saves them time. It sure doesn’t every time we measure it.
There is however a plague of low skilled people who convinced themselves that they’ve found a shortcut to being an engineer. Those people are producing bad things at a fast pace, and the only reason we’re not in an unsolvable crisis yet is that their slop isn’t hitting prod very often on account of being bad.

This doesn’t make me uneasy. It makes me resentful, a little angry, and a lot tired. Thanks for bringing it to attention, I will make sure that nothing of that project or from that author will ever cross my ecosystem again.
Doesn’t matter, it’s entirely too much for one PR


I mean, yeah, he could also not use git and just write some random bullshit directly on prod while blindfolded and blackout drunk.
However if you want a good product and good code you need to follow best practices, and those include meaningful and small PRs that you can easily review, check, debug, and revert if necessary.
