This looks interesting. It's very new, so it will likely be a while before any OS would adopt it, but it definitely shows promise of a possible alternative to grub down the road

1 month for all this? There is no way this isn't LLMed.

    Looking at the GitHub repo it seems like the first commit was actually just 2 weeks ago and contained 12k lines. I can't spot any AGENT.md files, but it does feel like the author quite new to this. That could be explained by them being 16 though like they say on their profile.

    The comment deleted in this commit reads kinda claude code to me tbh.

    Haven't used Claude code myself, so I wouldn't know, but a commit to delete only a comment is indeed pretty weird, also most of the commit messages are the GitHub default like "Update gui.h" which is also a bit odd.

    Ah I meant the comment itself read like that.

    Especially the super strict line lengths. Claude Code does that, sometimes it seems like it has a strict 80 or whatever character limit per comment line

    I personally format all comments to 80 (using vim's gw command) and never touch LLMs.

    Why 80? It feels so restricted to have that short line.

    Because long lines are bad for splits and/or vertical monitors. You don't know the viewport the code will be read in, so keeping to a conservative width is helpful. If things wrap or require scrolling, that's a lot worse for legibility, whereas having lines limited to 80 has minimal impact on legibility.

    Any software born after 2025 should be assumed LLM nonsense until proven otherwise. The days of "there's a working proof of concept so someone must actually have put some thought and effort into it" are gone.

    Any software dev born after 2006 does not know how to code. All they know is copy stack exchange, browse reddit, ask claude, eat hot chip, and compile.

    this will be normalized and they'll yell at you to get off the lawn granpa

    i remember feeling all superior because i was coding in Assembler for the 6502 chipset on the Commodore 64. I moved away from coding because it all seemed to be going somewhere i didn't like and yet ... here we are.

    It's amazing to me to watch this place just fill up with blind prejudice. Aged like....a willful ignorance to his much shit code is already written by idiot developers, but still works so it's accepted.

    I'm sorry you are too limited to see beyond the immediate dumpster fire and conflate that with the tech itself 🤷‍♂️

    Folks inability to separate concerns and identify actual issues is astounding. Then they turtle down she will be shocked when their job is different and they suck at it because they refuse to adapt. Just amazing..

    You think you could hammer out all these features in a month with shir code? It'd take me that long just to do the research in how it works.

    I understand having no job can give you a lot of time, I did have that too once, but even coding 12h a day for a month straight, hammering something like this out is insane. It would take the average idiot developer at least 2-3 months to get this much code out.

    And someone pointed out it was done in 2 weeks. That's even more LLMspicious

    And yet, you've listed nothing broken or have any concrete issues. Can you actually point out what you think is broken or just want to keep depending on things that could happen? Can you point out how other projects have magically protected themselves from shit code?

    What are these completely non sequitur arguments? Are you going to ask me whether my cat can read code too?

    You know what's going to pain you?

    Making 250+ as an SRE. You use my slop code every time your little request packet hits anything that touches nginx Apache k8s and a few others 🤣 enjoy using my shit slop all day my friend.

    Good Lord you nerds got so confident over your abilities.

    And? The LLM enabled a new programmer to make a new bootloader that's easier to use than the old ones

    If it has problems, are they going to be worse than what a new programmer is going to produce on their own?

    If this is picked up by any big distributions the code will be thoroughly reviewed and any bad design is likely to be fixed

    What's not to like?
