No Need To Verify Code Anymore

6 minutes ago 1.3K views 0 shares

So someone just announced NERD, a programming language where humans don't write code—they just "observe" it. The workflow? Skim the AI-generated code, run tests, and ship. No actual reading required. Because who needs to understand what they're deploying to production, right? The post casually mentions that 40% of their code is now machine-written, and they spent the year reviewing PRs authored by Claude faster than they could type requirements. The punchline? They weren't really reading it. Just vibing with the vibes and hitting merge. NERD supposedly compiles to native and uses 50-70% fewer tokens, which sounds impressive until you realize the entire premise is "let AI write everything and hope for the best." It's like code review speedrunning—any% glitchless, no comprehension required. The real kicker is calling it "the last missing piece in the AI puzzle." Because nothing says "puzzle complete" like removing human understanding from software development entirely. What could possibly go wrong? 🚀

StackOverflow Programming Debugging

Oh honey, someone woke up and chose VIOLENCE today! This is the programmer equivalent of "I didn't cheat on the test, I just strategically collaborated with my neighbor's paper." Our hero here is out here defending their honor with the intensity of a thousand code reviews, swearing on their IDE that they're crafting artisanal, hand-written code with ZERO help from Stack Overflow. They're basically saying "I may not understand what my code does, but at least it's MINE and I didn't copy-paste it!" Which is... honestly a flex of questionable value? Like congratulations, you organically grew your bugs from scratch! 🏆 The real tragedy is claiming they "perfect their code to the best of their abilities" while simultaneously admitting they don't understand how it works. That's not perfection bestie, that's just throwing spaghetti at the wall until something sticks and calling it Italian cuisine.

Programming Agile Testing

You've got the overeager junior dev trying to impress management with massive features, the manager eating it up like it's the next unicorn startup, and the senior dev slowly drowning in existential dread knowing they'll be the one debugging this mess at 2 AM. Meanwhile, underwater where nobody's watching, some software architect is passionately explaining why their elaborate unit test framework is the answer to world peace. Nobody asked, nobody's listening, but they're down there living their best life anyway. The title says it all: sometimes you just want people to do the simple thing instead of overcomplicating everything. But here we are, building enterprise-grade solutions for problems that don't exist while the actual codebase is held together with duct tape and prayer.

Vibe Coded Menu

Webdev Programming Debugging Frontend Backend

When your cafe tries to be all fancy and tech-savvy with laser-etched brass QR codes but forgets the most basic rule of web development: actually having a server running. Those beautiful artisanal QR codes are pointing to localhost – which, for the non-technical folks reading this, means "my own computer" and definitely not "the cafe's menu website." Someone literally deployed their local development environment to production. Or more accurately, they didn't deploy anything at all. They just scanned their own computer while testing and permanently etched that URL into brass. That's commitment to the wrong thing. The cafe spent more money on metalwork than on a $5/month hosting plan. Chef's kiss of irony right there.

Update Your Footer To 2026

Every year without fail, someone remembers in late January that they still have "© 2024 Company Name. All rights reserved." sitting in their footer. It's the web dev equivalent of writing the wrong year on checks for the first month. You know it needs updating, you even added it to your mental todo list, but somehow it always slips through until someone inevitably points it out or you randomly notice it yourself weeks later. The real pros just hardcode the current year in a template variable and forget about it forever. The rest of us? We'll see you next January when we go through this dance again.

Git Devops Programming

You know that feeling when you refactor a single variable name and suddenly Git thinks you've rewritten the entire codebase? Yeah, 34 files changed because you decided to update some import paths or tweak a shared constant. Smooth sailing, quick review, merge it and move on. But then there's that OTHER pull request. The one where you fix a critical bug by changing literally two lines of actual logic. Maybe you added a null check or fixed an off-by-one error. And suddenly your PR has 12 comments dissecting your life choices, questioning your understanding of computer science fundamentals, and suggesting you read a 400-page book on design patterns before touching production code again. The code review gods have a twisted sense of humor. Large diffs? "LGTM." Small, surgical changes? Time for a philosophical debate about whether your variable should be called isValid or valid .

Fully Recreated Python In Python

Python Security Programming

Congratulations, you've just built an entire programming language in 5 lines. Someone spent years architecting Python's interpreter, and you just speedran it with eval() . This is basically a REPL (Read-Eval-Print Loop) that takes user input, evaluates it as Python code, and prints the result. In an infinite loop. You know, exactly what the Python interpreter does. Except this one has the security posture of leaving your front door wide open with a sign that says "free stuff inside." The beauty here is that eval() does all the heavy lifting. Want to execute arbitrary code? Done. Want to potentially destroy your system? Also done. It's like reinventing the wheel, except the wheel is already attached to your car and you're just adding a second, more dangerous wheel. Pro tip: Never, ever use eval() on user input in production unless you enjoy surprise job openings on your team.

Happy New Year

Programming Gamedev Databases Backend

Nothing says "celebration" quite like watching your SQLite database successfully open while ASCII art champagne pops in your terminal. The raylib initialization loading right after is just *chef's kiss* - because who needs Times Square when you've got platform backend confirmations? Someone spent their New Year's Eve coding and decided to make their console output festive. The dedication to draw a champagne bottle in ASCII characters while simultaneously initializing a graphics library is the kind of energy that separates the "I'll start my side project tomorrow" crowd from the "it's 11:59 PM and I'm shipping features" crowd. Real talk though: if your New Year celebration involves mandatory raylib modules loading, you're either incredibly dedicated to your craft or you need better friends. Possibly both.

A Couple Of Things May Not Be Accurate But Still Funny

The corporate version of "things that don't matter" except they absolutely do matter and we're all lying to ourselves. AMD's driver situation has gotten way better over the years, but let's be real—we all know someone who still has PTSD from Catalyst Control Center. Windows bloatware is basically a feature at this point (looking at you, Candy Crush pre-installed on a $2000 machine). Intel's NM (nanometer) naming was already confusing before they switched to "Intel 7" because marketing > physics. And Sony/MacBook gaming? Sure, if you enjoy playing Solitaire at 4K. The NVIDIA VRAM one hits different though—12GB in 2024 for a $1200 GPU? Generous. And Ubisoft's game optimization is so legendary that your RTX 4090 will still stutter in their open-world games because they spent the budget on towers you can climb instead of performance. Crucial's "consumers don't matter" is just accurate business strategy—they're too busy selling to data centers to care about your gaming rig.

Nvidia out here playing 4D chess: invest billions into AI, watch AI models consume ungodly amounts of RAM to load those massive parameters, then realize you need more RAM to feed your GPUs. It's the perfect business model—create the demand, then scramble to supply it yourself. The AI boom turned into a RAM shortage so fast that even Nvidia's looking around like "wait, where'd all the memory go?" Fun fact: Modern large language models can require hundreds of gigabytes of VRAM just to run inference. When you're training? Better start measuring in terabytes. Nvidia basically funded their own supply chain crisis.

PC Gaming In 2026

The gaming hardware industry has officially entered its villain arc. While gamers and PC builders are just trying to run games without selling a kidney, AI companies and RAM manufacturers are in bed together, hogging all the sweet DDR5 modules for their data centers and AI training rigs. The joke here is that by 2026, the unholy alliance between AI tech giants and memory manufacturers will have completely squeezed out the consumer market. Your dream of building that 64GB gaming rig? Sorry buddy, those sticks are busy training GPT-7 to write better code than you. The betrayal is real when the components you need are being diverted to feed the machine learning beast instead of your Cyberpunk 2077 addiction.

Without Borrowing Ideas, True Innovation Remains Out Of Reach

OpenAI out here saying the AI race is "over" if they can't train on copyrighted material, while simultaneously comparing themselves to... car thieves who think laws are inconvenient. The self-awareness is chef's kiss. Look, every developer knows standing on the shoulders of giants is how progress works. We copy-paste from Stack Overflow, fork repos, and build on open source. But there's a subtle difference between learning from public code and scraping the entire internet's creative works without permission, then acting like you're entitled to it because "innovation." The irony here is nuclear. It's like saying "10/10 developers agree licensing is bad for business" while wearing a hoodie made from stolen GitHub repos. Sure buddy, laws are just suggestions when you're disrupting industries, right?
