"you [...] sound sus af" at the end of the comment. sus means suspicious and af stands for as fuck.
Thank you. I did indeed miss that. I did do a ⌘F for the individual words, but it didn’t occur to me they could’ve been written like that.
To be fair, writing "sus af" is different from writing "suspicious as fuck" (just like "wtf" reads differently from "what the fuck", etc).

Not to mention the author themselves say "Yes, there's a lot of vibe-coding in many places [...] We'll prune AI slop over time.", and then they both moved on to discussing the actual questions.
The whole "Wow, looks AI" > "Yeah, some of it is, we'll fix it later" was such a small part of the conversation, but then there are countless of other people chiming in about specifically the "Is It Slop Or Not?", rather than the meat of the conversation. And here we are adding even more meta-comments about it.
I don’t see anything from your parent commenter on the other thread that deserves that classification. On the contrary, while they initially had suspicious of vibe coding, on later comments they are cordial and even admit their own misunderstanding.
What am I missing? Where does “called him suspicious as fuck” come from?
