Frankly, I think this program is ai generated.
1. there are hallucinatory descriptions in the Readme (make test), and also in the code, such as the rate limit set at line 158, which is the wrong number
2. all commits are done on github webui, checking the signature confirms this
3. too verbose function names and a 2000 line python file
I don't have a complaint about ai, but the code quality clearly needs improvement, the license only lists a few common examples, the thresholds for detection seem to be set randomly, _get_stargazers_graphql the entire function is commented out and performs no action, it says "Currently bypassed by get_ stargazers", did you generate the code without even reading through it?
Bad code like this gets over 100stars, it seems like you're doing a satirical fake-star performance art.
I checked your past submissions and yes, they are also ai generated.
I know it's the age of ai, but one should do a little checking oneself before posting ai generated content, right? Or at least one should know how to use git and write meaningful commit messages?
It's a project I'm making purely for myself and I like to share what I make - sorry I didn't put up most effort in the commit messages, will not do that again.
Don’t apologize. You didn’t do anything wrong. It’s your repo, use it how you wish. You don’t owe that guy anything.
Well I initially planned to use GraphQL and started to implement it, but switched to REST for now as it's still not fully complete, just to keep things simpler while I iterate and the fact that it's not required currently. I’ll bring GraphQL back once I’ve got key cycling in place and things are more stable. As for the rate limit, I’ve been tweaking things manually to avoid hitting it constantly which I did to an extent—that’s actually why I want to add key rotation... and I am allowed to leave comments for myself for a work in progress no? or does everything have to be perfect from day one?
You would assume if it was pure ai generated it would have the correct rate limit in the comments and the code .... but honestly I don't care and yeah I ran the read me through GPT to 'prettify it'. Arrest me.
You probably should have put "v0.1" or "alpha/beta" in the post title or description - currently it reads like it's already been polished up IMO.
