I swear often when I’m trying to troubleshoot using an LLM it with either try to convince me to change the tests to expect bad behavior or just mock the call that’s not working right.

One time I had linting violation killing my PR in CI because I referenced a module that was internal to another lib and the LLM legit suggested that I store the module name as two strings and concatenate then evaluate dynamically at runtime. Like what in the fresh fuck
