<p>What was the AI detector? I would actually love to know what pangram scores it at; they claim to be state of the art. You should try it and report back!<p>Not sure why it 404s now — maybe hugged to death. You can try it yourself for free by copy pasting.</p>

<p>From what I can tell Symfony wraps these errors in a styled error block so it messes with GitHub's masking. For example, newlines breaking up the token are apparently enough to trick the masker since it's not a substring anymore.<p>For your example:<p>Line 34: <red>ghs_fdsafdsarewqfdsa...</red><p>Is probably long enough in most cases to break to a new line.<p>Also, those blocks get "interleaved" like this:<p><red>ghs_fdsafdsarewqfdsafdsa</red><p><red>fdsardsardsafdsafs......</red><p>So there are now </red>'s within the token, also breaking the substring matching.<p>This is kind of eye-opening for me -- I have never thought about how styled output like this could cause logging leakages.</p>

<p>That's my understanding. This seems to only effect PHP projects that use Composer in GitHub actions. Examples being usage of shivammathur/setup-php and or php-actions/composer.</p>

This came back as “Fully AI Generated.”<p>It has been interesting to read about the methodology. Still not sure how I feel about it!<p>Either way, as other comments have suggested, important to take things with a grain of salt as always.</p>

<p>I’m using the peloton only. I bought a little iPad/phone mount that I put on the handlebars. I run the app on my iPad, put the peloton in “just ride” mode (no subscription needed) and match the cadence/resistance with the web app.<p>When it comes to cycling I’m a complete novice which is why the workouts have resistance as % of total (what peloton does) and I recently added an option where you can switch to relevant effort in settings.<p>I appreciate this comment because I didn't know what people typically did for creating their own workouts and recently learned about FTP. I'm going to look into this!<p>There are several interesting projects around peloton hacking that have served as inspiration:<p>- [0] Peloton android app side loader: <a href="https://github.com/doudar/Openpelo" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/doudar/Openpelo</a><p>- [1] Overlays metrics on the Peloton: <a href="https://github.com/selalipop/grupetto" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/selalipop/grupetto</a><p>- [2] Bookmarklet to overlay cadence/resistance on web classes (this is what I started with): <a href="https://gist.github.com/rocng/2ff577948569ce0764b8938687841bbe" rel="nofollow">https://gist.github.com/rocng/2ff577948569ce0764b8938687841b...</a><p>- [3] Decodes Peloton metrics from the serial port: <a href="https://github.com/ihaque/pelomon" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/ihaque/pelomon</a><p>- [4] Transform Peloton into a smart trainer: <a href="https://github.com/doudar/SmartSpin2k/" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/doudar/SmartSpin2k/</a><p>These can be used in combination to use your Peloton with Zwift. Groupetto and Pelomon are really interesting. I'd like to integrate with something like Groupetto and use OpenPelo to have the full experience on the Peloton itself. That's kind of the end game, but I think the web app is the most approachable and easiest to get started with -- at least for me.</p>

<p>I use Claude Code on the mobile app, it creates a PR, I click the link which takes me to the GitHub mobile app, I turn my phone landscape and scroll through the code. I give feedback in the Claude mobile app if needed and it pushes additional commits.<p>I try to keep my instructions pretty targeted so there aren’t too many LOC and files changed. That’s the goal at least.<p>I deploy on Vercel, so I get a preview build link I can click in the PR and try the site before I merge to main (trunk based). I use Supabase so if there is a DB migration I just run it in the Supabase console by copy pasting the SQL.<p>When I merge the PR it deploys to prod. This works pretty well for me.</p>

<p>If by production you mean “done” and used by someone (i.e. by me) then I made <a href="https://skidmarks.club" rel="nofollow">https://skidmarks.club</a> to replace my peloton subscription. You can browse and ride at <a href="https://app.skidmarks.club" rel="nofollow">https://app.skidmarks.club</a>.<p>I’ve done ~10 rides with it so far. Hoping I can convince my wife to use it and save myself $50 a month. That would be my most successful side project by a wide margin.<p>There are probably a lot of examples like this. Vibe coded software people made for themselves, and other people could use it if they wanted.<p>All of the code was reviewed by myself, and I’m a programmer, so not sure if that fits the description. I didn’t go through it with a fine-toothed comb, however, and 90% of the review was on my phone. I also did some non-vibed setup for hosting, db, email, etcetera.<p>To me vibe coding is not looking at any of the code at all, but the definition reads a little loose to me these days, especially on HN, as: did an LLM “type” most of the code or did you? Either way I don’t think the term or definition is a big deal and probably not worth splitting hairs over.</p>
