[CCS Proposals] plowsoff opened merge request #631: anon/jeffro to wip https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/631

xlowt:matrix.org:
I just shared a detailed technical analysis of the current version (v5). If you disagree, please point to specific lines of code that you consider unsafe. > <plowsof> easymonerod is unsafe AI slop
17:11:51
xlowt:matrix.org:
"AI slop" is not a technical argument. The code works, the security practices are correct (SSH hardening, optional RPC password, backups before modifications), and the script is clearly intended for beginners with a dedicated PC.
17:11:51
xlowt:matrix.org:
If you have specific concerns about the current version, I'm happy to discuss them.
17:37:44
ofrnxmr:xmr.mx:
I honestly don't feel like reviewing ai...slop, but as a start, you're wrong about rpc-bind-ip=0.0.0.0. The config you ship is an obvious dangerous point. I can literally, remotely, delete users of easymonerod's blockchains
17:38:56
ofrnxmr:xmr.mx:
As much as might usually like to help, i'm on, and have been on strike when it comes to vibe coded projects, especially with obvious and glaring mistakes
17:41:52
ofrnxmr:xmr.mx:
If the basics aren't done right, i feel its not my job to clean up every little (and dangerous, iirc there were many, and probably still is) mistake in a 1700 line 100% claude production
17:43:00
ofrnxmr:xmr.mx:
Like... why touching things that you dont understand, and then shipping it to "noobs" who are literally going to get rekt by running this
17:56:18
DataHoarder:
slop at best harmful at worst, and this errs towards the second
17:56:46
DataHoarder:
something made without deep knowledge by hallucination, aimed towards users that also don't understand it
17:59:19
DataHoarder:
use stuff to review, but not to build safety/privacy critical services.
18:28:54
hbs:matrix.org:
Rule #1, if no human spent time writing it, I'm not spending time reading it
18:50:16
xlowt:matrix.org:
You're right about rpc-bind-ip=0.0.0.0 without restriction. This has been fixed — restricted-rpc=1 is now added to the configuration. The RPC is now limited to read-only operations.
18:50:16
xlowt:matrix.org:
Thanks for pointing this out.
18:50:16
xlowt:matrix.org:
That said, in my country, 95% of people are computer illiterate. Your tools are too complicated for them. It's better to have an easy-to-use software that still needs improvement than a professional tool that nobody knows how to use.
18:50:16
xlowt:matrix.org:
At least this gets more people running nodes. Perfect is the enemy of good.
18:54:04
plowsof:
Rekt at v5 still? 😆
18:54:34
plowsof:
Is everything you are typing here ctrl+v'd from chatgpt?
18:55:25
plowsof:
Nobody who can string 2 sentences together would produce that piece of garbage surely

DataHoarder:
> That said, in my country, 95% of people are computer illiterate. Your tools are too complicated for them.
19:00:35
DataHoarder:
and so they will too complicated when thy get rekt by ai hallucinations that damages them permanently
19:01:22
DataHoarder:
More nodes in a way that has them damage the network or end up exploitable is not better. And there are already non-AI options
19:04:07
ofrnxmr:xmr.mx:
@xlowt:matrix.org: ./monerod isnt complicated
19:05:14
DataHoarder:
The option is not AI or none at all. You may even get resources provided if you have a plan to implement something properly
19:06:07
DataHoarder:
The issue at hand here is just throwing AI at it and expecting something out of it (you are making more from less, not less from more, as a general rule, you want stuff like this to distill, or not generate novel things)
19:07:21
DataHoarder:
It seems not even you understands this thing, so it's not about end users, it's approaching them with complete ignorance and just acting as a glorified messenger between whatever AI and this irc
19:07:53
DataHoarder:
To the point where you can't review what the AI has generated, and it's not even code, just cmdline arguments
19:09:23
plowsof:matrix.org:
https://github.com/kerlannXmr/EasyMonerod/issues/6 -> installs vim for the noobs? 😆
19:12:33
321bob321:
How do you know the code is correct if you rely on ai ?
19:20:27
ofrnxmr:xmr.mx:
You dont
19:20:44
ofrnxmr:xmr.mx:
You just release it and claim that it's correct and safe
19:21:00
plowsof:matrix.org:
donation address, send it
19:21:24
plowsof:matrix.org:
now we can make the "free qr code generator v5"
19:21:52
321bob321:
Is the donate address real ?
19:22:16
ofrnxmr:xmr.mx:
which one
19:22:34
ofrnxmr:xmr.mx:
Theres a kuno as well, so that one must be real
