Interesting to see the rise of ChatGPT-enabled Github spam.

The screenshots below are from one account, but if you search a bit it's very easy to find other examples.

Github doesn't appear to be on top of this at all, e.g., the account mentioned in https://github.com/swarna1101/VeChain-Thor/issues/1 has been spamming repos since last year and hasn't been banned (I reported a bad account that was generating abusive spam once and got some autoresponse and then nothing happened and haven't bothered reporting since then).

FYI, @KennethCho-CKH appears to be a fake user submitting GPT spam.

I don't know who you are, but stop targeting me and flooding my email inbox. This could be seen as cyberbullying. You think I am a spammer, but in reality, you are the real spammer. At least I put effort into the AI prompt to generate some code that people can refer to, whereas you do absolutely nothing to contribute to the community. put down the keyboard and get a life.

Your AI hasn't signed the CLA yet, though.

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to reach out to you regarding my recent pull request to your repository. I have made several improvements to the code, which I believe would benefit the project as a whole.

Firstly, I have included unit tests, added try-catch blocks, and simplified the multimap-by function to enhance the code's reliability and prevent potential errors. I also have added docstrings to make the code more understandable and easier to navigate.

Moreover, I have used a threaded ->> macro to simplify the code and replace the println statement with proper logging to improve the code's readability. Finally, I have enhanced the code's modularity and conciseness, making it more maintainable and easier to modify in the future.

I believe that these changes would greatly improve the project's overall quality, and I would be honored if you could review my pull request and consider accepting it. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Here you just delay printing warnings, adding extra data structure that’s passed between widths and its call site. That’s one more thing to keep in mind, which makes it harder to follow

Giving name to #{"0" 0 1200} is good. I would’ve move it inside the function with let, though, to keep everything local

I think java will fail and die on trying to open file anyway, giving you adequate enough exception. But the code remains simple
...

What is path-seq? Did you use ChatGPT to generate this path?

...

Why would you suppress exception like this? It is kind of important

...

ZoneId/UTC does not exist. Is this really ChatGPT? Have you even run this code?

...

I did a review, but overall quality is very bad, sorry. Code uses non-existing functions, which indicates you didn’t even run it, and probably generated it with ChatGPT?

I made several changes to improve the code:

Defined constants for file names to make the code more maintainable.
Used with statements to ensure files are closed properly when deleting them.
Used pathlib consistently throughout the code for better readability and to avoid errors.
Added comments to explain the purpose of the code and functions.
Reformatted the code to comply with PEP 8 style guidelines for better readability.
Moved the imports to the top of the file for better organization.

It would be very helpful if you could test the code I write, as I am not entirely certain if everything is working as it should.

I can't find any with statement in the code 😂

It's necessary to add this path to ensure filescfg and _common are imported properly.

I think this comment is pretty important.

@zachklipp totally agree. Big red flags

@tony what did you tweet?

@ErikHellman yeah. You are right 👍

@ErikHellman not the Twitter front end part.

IPhone, Web.... And Android, HTTP

Something is off here... Either the punctuation or they mean web socket instead of HTTP?

Am I the only one that thinks... "this makes no sense"?
