    And how do you expect to stay out of the quagmire of lawsuits over NDA, accusations of stolen trade secrets and simply a shitload of lawsuits. Even if the developers are acting in good faith, the lawsuits could crush you before you're done.

      Especially that they're explicitly replacing Auth0 and Salesforce. I'd at least keep it vague ..

        they aren't replacing Salesforce, too much entrenched process and knowledge, like trying to get companies to switch off of git

        for auth, I would be very concerned about ai mistakes

        that being said, I'm down with the larger movement ethos, but clean room vibe coded slop approach will be a disaster, the problem.with most movements is leadership, and this does not sound like the kind of developer (ai pilled) that I want to work with, they are already forcing their views and approach on people who would join (eg. CLEAN_ROOM.md)

        Looked around more

        1. from their methodology: "under human review at every merge" (there are not actually any merges, just hundreds of commits in 3 days, so technically not a lie?)

        2. 500k+ LoC in 3 days and has code patterns I would never dream of writing

        This is a slop fest
