No default gnome app will be able to toggle that default. You can hack it in gsettings.
And worse, the fact there is a setting means that only the default will be tested. The feature will slowly but surely bitrot. In a few years we’ll see a proposal to remove it entirely. This is how software development works.
Many moons ago I did a project at uni where we implemented elliptic curve cryptography in Java and released it as open source. Unsurprisingly, we had no idea what we were doing. Some years later I get a random mail from someone using it on some embedded system…
I don’t want to know, and I fear that ist is paramount that I maintain plausible deniability 😂♥️🙏
Do it. DO IT
That depends on what you count as a “test”. In some langs/frameworks it is a lot, indeed.
Yeah. Totally agree on this. I spend maybe 3-4h a day reviewing code, and these are my thoughts…
The LLM generated tests I see are generally of very low quality. Perfectly fitting the bill of looking like a test, but not actually being a good test.
They often don’t test the precise expected value. As an overly simplistic example: They rarely check 2+2==4. But just assert 2+2>0, or often just that 2+2 doesn’t cause an error.
The tests often contain mountains of redundancy. Again, an oversimplified example: They have a test for 2+2, and another for 2+3.
There is never any attempt to make the tests nice to read for humans. It is always just heaps of boilerplate code. No helpers introduced, or affordances to simplify test setup.
Coupling the proclivity for boilerplate together with subtly redundant tests makes for some very poor programming. Worse than I’d expect from a junior, tbh.
And 1500 tests… That is not necessarily a lot! If that is the output of 1 month of pumping out code, I would say bare minimum
Most devs I know like recursion. Trouble is that many popular languages don’t support tail recursion, but throw a stackoverflow error after a few thousand levels. So you have to keep track of max recursion depth manually, and it starts to look like a complicated solution

I don’t know precisely how they are automated, but a pile of applications came in seconds after opening the position. I think I heard talk about online services that you can pay to do the bottling, but cannot remember the name(s). I personally know people who wrote their own bot to do this.
It looks like most applications are from real people, but impossible to tell without a deep vetting honestly. Malicious people running several “fake developer accounts” (for remote work, which is all we do) collecting paychecks until fired, or simply spying, is a known problem in the industry, but not something I have experienced first hand. Yet.
We get 100s of automated applications per day for a position we recently opened. 99% are automated and no where near meeting the requirements. We try to give everyone a review and a reply but it is a massive task, unfortunately. We do not have dedicated personel to handle these matters so it costs engineering time. The current situation for online software dev job application sucks for everyone.
I guess what I am trying to say is: If you don’t get a reply to an application it is likely because you are drowning in noise and someone at the other end is struggling to keep up.
9 times out of 10, this “vibe draft” sends people down a terrible path that they would have never ventured had there been an adult in the room. I swear I review so much code that sets off in the wrong direction because of this, and I am sick of it.
As I explained elsewhere there is no official app to change this setting. Users can hack their gsettings.
Support for middle-paste will slowly but surely bitrot and eventually be removed.
