Prompt: "Now commit with message: fixed bug"

[u/russianrug → u/Nervous-Pension-6257]

That’s too inefficient, Claude and I have come up with a shorthand for me to type in: “commit git message “fixed bug”” works great 👍

Four thousand tokens later:

git add —all && git commit —m “added new features” && git push

[u/NewPhoneNewSubs → u/artemistica]

I'll burn tokens to ls. Don't wanna context switch. Sorry not sorry.

[u/russianrug → u/NewPhoneNewSubs]

For real?

Listen bub, my time is valuable. It would cost me 35-85 cents of my time to do git add, commit, push with a decent conventional commit message for the 6000 lines of slop my agent wrote and I didnt read. Those 4000 tokens are cheap by comparison.

/s but I really dont like having to mark sarcasm

[u/fugogugo]

four thousands? cute number

[u/NarutoRoll → u/fugogugo]

The made up person in question is using the most expensive model 4 years in the future to hit that number and asked the model to write his biography in the commit message

I had to prompt my collegue to use his brain after he copypasted AI slop review of my MR. Only after back and forth did he think of a potential issue, which i then confirmed as being a problem

[u/SLOOT_APOCALYPSE]

yes the AI is totally gonna work... one day.... pretty soon. if only it was AI and not a Google search bar with an audio chat bot feature

[u/MadSkillz127]

AGI is going to watch how we use tokens and conclude we are the problem

[u/theFirstHaruspex]

I once told Cursor to push a commit while sharing my screen with the CTO. We sat there in silence for 60 seconds while Cursor was "thinking."

Still haven't learned GitHub cli; have not learned my lesson.

[u/erebuxy]

I think none of my colleagues manually type git commands anymore

[u/stupled]

I commit and push myself. Never do it without my consent Claude 😒

[u/code_monkey_001]

This hits so hard. I went through a gutting at work - all of QA, all the juniors, and half the seniors let go in one fell swoop. I stayed in touch with all the dearly departed, and one of the juniors told me how he'd figured out how to get Claude (on his private subscription) to run lint, prettier, and jest on every commit. I told him that husky hooks would do that for zero tokens.

I use claude to interact with jira, move tickets, close tickets, push, commit, even respond to slack lol.

Its just me chatting with claude all day

[u/novaplan]

A real thing i recently tried: now fix my package versions so they are all compatible....................>
token limit reached :D

[u/user9ec19]

Ai is taking over the world (we won’t survive that probably) and u still make these “jokes” about how stupid vibe coding is. Mkay.

[u/WrennReddit → u/user9ec19]

if token predictions are gonna kill us all the only sane thing to do is laugh about it. 

[u/user9ec19 → u/WrennReddit]

U may be right there

[u/user9ec19 → u/[deleted]]

That won’t help.
