Damn wow submitting one of many projects in a CS class at UC Berkeley qualifies you to run the country's information services! Sign me up Trump I did that plenty of times. I spent many hours in Soda Hall hitting deadlines and not deleting codebases like a fuck-up. Make me president! - ThreadSky

Man with literally nothing at stake would risk all of his nothing on some other guy with nothing to lose. Not very persuasive tweet!

Better yet: give him everyone's PII, even the fine, fine folks at the CIA.

Also how do you delete a code base? You learn git in 61A Intro to Python IIRC so this mustve been like a very intro class. Was it R or something in CS 70? Lol

nullptrintime.bsky.social•23 days ago

You don't do Git until 61B, but 61A auto-backs up all of your code every time you run the autograder

Nothing stops you from checking R scripts into git

The thing is, no one is saying these guys are dumb.

They’re saying they’re unqualified.

You can be brilliant AND unqualified!

How do you even delete an entire codebase for a group project ostensibly worked on my multiple people from multiple computers, does Berkeley CS ban git

idothethinking.bsky.social•23 days ago

Berkeley has git and it has servers so i have zero idea how you delete a code base, unless it was like 61A intro to Python or something and this is a story of a first time freshman programmer who hadnt set up git yet.

I've done stuff like this too. It's not like some supergenius move lol. Last minute project disasters are kind of part of the engineering school experience.

I thought there was huge overlap between people who support the Musk actions and people who think it's good to replace most human insight into coding with AI-generated shit. No conflicts here!

Isn’t this him admitting to academic fraud? He submitted a group project he states he played no role in creation.

"I trust him with everything I own."

Umm...how does that follow?

Also replicating something you've already made is easier than building it from scratch.
