One of our devs came to me with an LLM rewrite of some parts of our automation. Even at first glance you could see a lot was missed, the refactor simply wasn't going to work in that state and critical migration logic just wasn't present.

I binned the branch and did the refactor myself, as it would have taken more time to figure out the damage caused than just starting over.

So glad we now pay premium prices for RAM and non-volatile storage, just so some LLM can vomit up a reheated turd.

    and that's the fucking crux of it right there, the damage. Any code base without someone smart enough to throw this trash out is going to take forever to fix or might just be too far gone to save
