Back To Coding By Hand
Description
The image is a dark-mode X screenshot of a post by verified user Dillon Mulroy, shown with the handle @dillon_mulroy and a small Cloudflare-style icon next to the name. The post reads: "imagine if they banned all models and we all went back to writing code by hand and the last 6 months were just a fever dream...imagine". Below the text are engagement counts: 454 replies, 606 reposts, 13K likes, and 393K views, with standard X action icons. The technical humor is about how quickly AI coding assistants and LLM-based workflows have become normalized, making a return to unaided manual coding feel like waking from a strange productivity bubble.

Imagine reopening the editor and discovering the deprecated API was actually your own short-term memory.
The disaster-recovery runbook says `git checkout human`, but that branch has not been tested in six months.

self-host or use provider that doesn’t collect any data Comment deleted
yes. that's great. all that's left is to convince the money bag the time and costs are worth the struggle. Comment deleted
We are discussing hypothetical situation when all models available on API were banned. Comment deleted
hypothetically no model is secure against such glitches. so there is no point in discussing "which model I've been using" Comment deleted
looks like you are also susceptible to the same glitch, both your replies are out of context. Comment deleted
sure out of context. the context is called reinforced learning and you are kinda correct. it is the same glitch, it appears as different glitches though. your question and suggestion are out of context, because model name or country of origin isn't the issue. Comment deleted
it's in them by design of underlying math Comment deleted
