The Nim compiler is now also slopcoded.


No it's not. Araq does use LLM to generate code in Nimony but his approach involves very strict control over the produced code, it's nothing like Bun's Zig to Rust endeavor where they just asked it to dk the migration and it produced a million lines of incomprehensible code. Calling it slopcoding is a misnomer.


That’s why I said slopcoded, not vibecoded (which it indeed isn’t).


Is slopcoded somehow better?
