I'm a dev and I can save a document in emacs and exit. That's the limit of my emacs ability. :smile:

EDIT: ... and the -nw switch makes sure I stay in the CLI. But that's it.

I'm on this weird public computer where copy/paste is disabled (because it's a giant security risk?) I have an example in "Programming & Computer Science" -> "How to connect Frontend and Backend", where I'm actually impressed with ChatGPT's performance. This is ofcourse because I already know how to program. If one didn't the result would probably look much like your example above.

I seriously think it should be tried with Brainfsck. The result would come pre-obfuscated and f... with your brain.
 
If you really want to mess with other programmers, use the ideas in the How To Write Unmaintainable Code link in my signature. My favorite:

Bedazzling Names​

Choose variable names with irrelevant emotional connotation, e. g.:
marypoppins = ( superman + starship ) / god;
This confuses the reader because they have difficulty disassociating the emotional connotations of the words from the logic they’re trying to think about.
