#pullrequests — Public Fediverse posts

🎮🤖 Apparently, PS3 emulator devs are drowning in AI-generated pull requests from wannabe vibecoders who think #debugging is a new TikTok dance. It seems the real "game" is getting human contributors who know that 'AI slop' isn't the latest fast-food trend. 🍔💻

👨‍💻 Oh, look! Another gripping tale of an #ARM #developer lamenting the glacial pace of #RISC-V 🐌 while pretending to be productive with Fedora's bug circus. 🎪 But hey, at least he got 86 pull requests in—a testament to truly pioneering 🚀 the art of waiting around! 😂

#PullRequests ≠ Code Reviews. Async PRs often delay delivery, drain trust & boost WIP. @javisan81 makes the case for sync reviews, pairing & post-merge feedback to ship faster with better quality—by building trust into the process.

"Stacked PRs" is a proxy signal for failed engineering culture.

What you are saying is that you either can't/won't make a PR of reviewable size or that your team is incapable of getting reviewable PR's merged in a timely manner, and instead of fixing the problem you have taken the classic software engineering approach of adding an additional layer of complexity so now you have two problems

#programming #pullrequests

The PR author made changes! So at least it's not a "slop and forget" change.

However, all of their responses have that horrific obsequious tone of LLMs.

And one of my comments was "this call to openFile() seems to render the file, which would be inefficient for multiple files - can you just add it to the database instead?" and their response was "Good point, I've fixed it to be less complicated and more efficient"…

…and then they simplified the OTHER function (which did have more complex async for unexplained reasons)… and it STILL uses the function that I said was inefficient 🙄

Meanwhile, the comments on "this change seems unrelated" got "you're right, that was included by accident, I've reverted it".

I'm calling slop, and I hate the state of the world.

#FuckGenAI #DriveBySlopping #PullRequests #EngageYourBrain

I've just read a PR on a FOSS project and… I think it's AI slop 😐

There's nothing much in the code that's blatant slop. It looks reasonable, give or take a weird choice on one function to call. But it's also a function that a human might naively decide to call.

But then there's the PR text. It has footnote-style links. And it says generic and unhelpful things like "swapped X for Y and updated Z"… Yes… I can see that from the diff. But WHY? 🙄

Certainly the #AI is a great tool that could help us in our jobs as #SoftwareEngineers but also I've read bad quality pull request from vibe coders that represent a bottle neck for the code review.

But the human in the loop policies that mentioned in the articles sound like a good start.

wow, @shlee made 12 PRs for Pixelfed yesterday <3

Great!
As an user and instance owner: THANK YOU. Shlee

"We have a process to help us build in quality that is based on feedback and inviting human judgement, but if the system incentives constrain our ability to get the feedback, that also means we are less likely to build in quality."

Wondering right now if coding agents will be the end of code reviews. They're already a bottleneck, and agents could multiply code output per developer significantly.

Feels like a better approach might be to "shift the review left": collaborate with the team on the spec upfront, then only run automated checks on PRs. 🤔

If you're serious about reducing lead time, rethink #PullRequests. They add async delays, inflate WIP & often fail to catch real issues. @javisan81 explains why trust-first teams review differently.

"The basic idea of doc bug zero, as I explained in Defining bug zero, is to clear out all the tickets in the doc issue queue, essentially to finish all your documentation work. Doing so would be the ultimate statement about the productivity gains from AI. Despite my attempts to get to bug zero, it still eludes me. I’m realizing that there’s an art to working through a bug queue, and AI can only take me so far. Good project skills are also needed. One of those skills, which I’ll address in this post, is making it easy for people to review the changelists, or pull requests. (The terminology used in my area of doc work is changelists, or CLs, so that’s how I’ll refer to them here.)"

Today was #rage and #pullrequests.

1. Yes, #hardcoded #opaque identifiers are a little tiny bit faster in this task that runs for a couple of minutes on an irregular, on-demand basis. But maybe you should look up those monstrosities starting from their #humanfriendly equivalents which are much more descriptive.

2. Fine, you wrote some #shellscript with #LLM. It's not very #DRY and it interfaces poorly with the #pipeline syntax. This will require #commits to a branch, not just a #review.

The Theatre of Pull Requests and Code Review

Just published two new #greasemonkey scripts to scratch a long-standing itch.

When working with #pullrequests on #Github, I like cleanly separated small commits. I then review commit-by-commit, but github does not show on comments what commit it was made against. My script adds this info automatically when adding a comment.

The second script just adds e.g. "3 / 5" when viewing the 3rd commit in a 5-commit PR, to see how far along I am :-)

Submitted a new PR with some changes 🥳

Wish me luck!

If your pull requests look like "do this, do unrelated that, do more unrelated stuff", maybe, just maybe, you should consider not requiring pre-merge approvals ;)

Learning about git pull requests and branches... I might be making my first PR soon on two projects. (One is ReTex the Markdown editor, and the other is my current Hugo theme: anubis2). Excited. Hope I get the process right! I'm writing a follow up post on #retext too. Really looking forward to sharing it!
