I expected the website to simply render a big, fullscreen "YES". I'm disappointed.

DHH is doing what we call in the industry "the Shit Sandwich" - shit - AI slop - shit

Not A text area, but THE text area. I like it.

Since everyone is closing PR contributions, I am inviting everyone to spam my project with your best PR slop and impossible issues, so I can test new features against AI spam. I offer the repo; you bring the tokens. It's a win-win.

Don't get me wrong: It's creating a lot of issues, eroding trust, driving honest developers away, and pushing people a bit too far. I'm more upset at platforms and companies than at AI on its own.

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 05/10/2026

I had the opposite experience, and I also like a good challenge. If you have lost your OSS-drive while doing solo projects, I would consider joining some community projects. There's still plenty to do that really doesn't involve all this AI noise.

ah ok. Didn't know about that setting.

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 05/10/2026

Every time I had this issue, I was like ok fair enough, but also damn it!

Well but you need to auto-close PRs if they are not in the list, otherwise you're back at the beginning. But if the slop is not overwhelming the manual also works

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 04/10/2026

Yeah you can make a specific template, then once that's created, you can look at the issue and if you approve it the user gets added to the list, if close, it doesn't. You wouldn't have to touch a line of code. Less work.

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 04/10/2026

That's a good one. I never know how effective that can be, but I also know that a lot of people do not want an AGENTS, a CLAUDE or any kind of AI-related files in their projects.

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 04/10/2026

How many tokens you have left? Do you have enough for a cake recipe?

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 04/10/2026

Also by default only leaves a label on the PR so it's not really intrusive. You can also add a separate comment with a full analysis or even add that inside the PR description itself for less noise.

This project is an ongoing experiment; if you decide to give it a shot, take it with a big ol' grain of salt.

Another Sunday, another experiment. Interlinked tries to flag AI-written PR descriptions by looking for patterns found in PRs from known automated accounts and in descriptions written before AI. They don't give us the tools; we try to make a new one.

sort of mini OSS cover letter ahahahhaha

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 04/10/2026

What if a GitHub action in a project required developers to introduce themselves using a built-in issue template before they could open PRs? If you do and it is accepted, you're added to a project list that lets you open PRs; otherwise, your PR is closed automatically. 🤔

You're cooking! I got an invite code, and it looks really nice and super fast.

Don't waste your time ahahhahah Also funny I have a bachelor degree in oil painting 😂

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 02/10/2026

Did you take this example because of DHH rant about painting and photography? Because he's wrong.

110

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 02/10/2026

Why did u do it before AI? Corporate always wants to ship. That's also old news.

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 02/10/2026

A photo is only a snapshot of reality. Painting is much more complex and often very far from reality. Using coding agents for 100% of the work is just project management.

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 02/10/2026

You are confusing painting with photography.

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 02/10/2026

We will no longer take pride in ourselves because people will thank us, even though we didn't do anything. This isn't about the medium you use for your photography; it's about letting someone else take the pictures for you. Literally.

My spider senses are tingling. AI slop has been detected.

I think, regardless of the intent, I want to raise a glass to this genius. Way to go! Love it!

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 02/10/2026

We can. We can do pretty much anything we want, especially if we work collectively. We need some good old sharing of hideous ideas that become great experiments. The stupidest Sunday project can actually become a useful tool.

Let's not forget that GitHub's CEO left a year ago. They are part of the Microsoft CoreAI division, which clearly shows.

Matteo Gabriele @matteogabriele.npmx.social · 02/10/2026

I agree. It's that the number of people contributing dramatically increased without being able to adjust the number of maintainers needed to review it. Main issue is that tools like GitHub are focused on causing the volume and not on how to manage it.
