Documentation for nanogram available here for awhile

Edit: Dont be a ungrateful. I put a lot of time, effort, and my own money into making this. I’m choosing to freely share it :)

Yes I get help from LLM’s. Review the code if you think it’s unsafe, or just move on and don’t use it. Happy to answer any technical questions.

Edit 2: Expanded source code for termux version here.

Edit 3: Expanded source for pi version here

Why put all the Python code in the script?

Ghoelian@piefed.social on 18 Dec 22:49 next collapse

Apparently it was all ai generated and the author doesn’t actually know how to program. Just look at their responses in the .ml cross-post, that’s not someone whose software I would trust.

6nk06@sh.itjust.works on 18 Dec 23:29 next collapse

And it’s worse because they hide the Python code, which means that they can’t use tools like uv or ruff to check that everything works properly. I don’t understand why people do this.

Starfighter@discuss.tchncs.de on 19 Dec 00:33 next collapse

Also the normal and rpi versions are two completely independent implementations of the same software. So now the LLMs have twice the maintenance load.

I didn’t diff the two files but even the startup and control code appears to be custom for each version.

hereforawhile@lemmy.ml on 19 Dec 03:33 next collapse

They are different environments, and so there are many changes that take place in order for it to work on a PI.

The core app and features are a mirror.

Better? gitlab.com/here_forawhile/nanogram-termux

Dedicated expanded pi version coming later.

I dont understand why people do this

Charitably: AI turbocharged dunning-kruger

Less charitable: Malware delivery.

There is no good reason why they couldn’t have a normal source tree, that they pack into a single shell script in CI.

hereforawhile@lemmy.ml on 19 Dec 04:30 collapse

Here is the source tree.

CameronDev@programming.dev on 19 Dec 04:52 collapse

Sorry, but a photo of a directory structure is not a source tree.

Your git repo consists of 4 files, a readme, a licence, and two packed shell scripts.

If you have an actual published source repo, link people to it.

hereforawhile@lemmy.ml on 19 Dec 05:06 collapse

So just a expanded file structure directory is what you want? The script executable expands to each individual piece once run.

What do you mean a actual published source repo? I do not understand how its not that. Everything is packaged into one script.

CameronDev@programming.dev on 19 Dec 05:27 collapse

Yes. Separate out each part out. You are currently publishing the equivalent of of a compiled binary. Split it up, and use a script to “compile” it back into the mega shell script.

It means that changes to each file can tracked (and audited) individually, you can conditionally compile bits in or out, and most usefully, you can write tests for the individual components.

hereforawhile@lemmy.ml on 19 Dec 08:20 collapse

Ok I’ll work on it and share when I am done

hereforawhile@lemmy.ml on 19 Dec 03:12 collapse

What do you mean?

hereforawhile@lemmy.ml on 19 Dec 03:20 next collapse

AI generated I guess… with love, time, money, and care from me. Take it or leave it lol.

cypherpunks@lemmy.ml on 19 Dec 03:28 collapse

look at their responses in the .ml cross-post,

that post is now deleted, but you can see their modlog here

hereforawhile@lemmy.ml on 19 Dec 03:48 collapse

That’s wild that the mod thinks it’s off topic. Thanks for shareing that I didn’t even realize I had been censored by the mods.

hereforawhile@lemmy.ml on 19 Dec 03:59 collapse

I made this on mobile, and one monolithic file was how I can quickly iterate and test each feature.

Every time I added a new feature I had to test it’s function to test if it was properly implemented and exactly what I wanted. Keeping it all one file means I could copy paste it into the terminal. Running it overwrites all the home directory instantly with all my updates across the python, db, html, css.

Almost 9k lunes of python in a bash script. Lmao. No.

sem@piefed.blahaj.zone on 19 Dec 11:42 next collapse

Don’t be mad when ppl don’t like LLM code. You can release something for free but calling people ungrateful for not liking seems a bit… entitled.

hereforawhile@lemmy.ml on 19 Dec 12:16 collapse

Sorry I don’t mean to come off entitled. It’s not a very constructive community though that’s unfortunate haha.

non_burglar@lemmy.world on 20 Dec 07:16 collapse

It’s not a very constructive community though

You need guidance in your presentation style, you have managed to completely alienate your potential users in one single post.

No one owes you anything. No one asked you to spend time and money on a project. Calling folks “ungrateful” while trying to attract them to your project is weird.

I’ve been experimenting with Vibe Coding for a few months. I recommend you do some beginner tutorials on coding, at least python.

Then, using what you have learned, have your AI vibe coding assistant refactor your code into something manageable.

Just because it works, doesn’t mean it’s ready for others to use. If you want to vibe code an app for yourself and it works, that’s fine. But this is… python code, in a bash script? You need to clean it up and make it more professional before you share it.

Look at the edits, they have both been broken apart into standalone projects broken down into all their parts.
