bro why build a new IDE, just use IntelliJ or any other flavor of these for your favorite language. You would have saved years and 37.000 commits

It always surprised me when people talked about their Bosses / Managers like they were some sort of gods that were going to save them and protect them from all bad things in the world.

that's a stupid take and shows lack of engineering experience

Would be amazing to have a CLI tool that detects AI generated code (even add it as part of CI/CD pipelines). I'm tired of all the AI trash PRs

correction: It's a cool exercise if you write it yourself and not use GPT

Definitely vibe code, and I agree with the others - please mention it in the README if you want people to use AI generated code. You are not the mind behind it

Update: Looking through your code, I already found within 5 minute flaws, since it is obvious that you have not written it (looking at your past work, I doubt you even understand what it does), I will not even point the issues out.

as German I never felt European and neither do I know any german that feels so. Germany is the only country in europe where patriotism is considered right-wing and not seen well, in other countries there is indeed a national consent / identity, people are patriots and proud of that (poland, spain, italy, romania, albania, turkey, ...). You will definitely not get any any "we are all europeans <3" vibes there. The concept of being an "european" is a woke leftist mindset that you will encounter mostly in Berlin but it is what it is -> a woke idea and not reality
