Not entirely clear on what exactly I'm disqualified for, but to make you happy / happier...
It's a lot more typing, but would "uninformed despecialized prompt-writing to cause an LLM to generate source code that might in some way look like it's an attempt at solving the described problem if you squint really hard and eat a few THC gummies" be a more acceptable description?

So, Codeberg (which is a FOSS/freedom-focused code hosting site) is run as a cooperative, with members able to nominate measures/policies and vote on them etc.
They just had a vote and approved policies making "AI" / LLM-based projects basically unwelcome there. The vote wasn't close; 70% voted in favour of the policy. It's not a hard & fast "if you use LLM, you're banned" or anything of the sort - it's quite a measured, reasoned stance.
The slopcoders are freaking out. They just don't understand how this is possible. Imagine! A community of people that makes their own decisions and you can't just make them do what you want or ignore them and consume their resources without their consent!
"I like slopcoding, actually" is turning out to be a *really* good litmus test for people you want to have absolutely nothing to do with your project or your community.
Look at some of the whining (this is the only reason I would ever link to YCombinator [1]):

Half of the times I click on a ticket on the board in #Jira now, it does not show up in the sidebar to be edited. I really hate this stupid #SlopCoding era.
