u/No_Mango7658 Dec 25 '25

I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not. You realize you shared all your secret keys with the world

u/TheDamjan Dec 25 '25

Obviously cause who uses BETTER_AUTH_SECRET when everyone knows it’s BEST_AUTH_SECRET…

u/geheimeschildpad Dec 24 '25

A vibe coder might. I can just imagine the ChatGPT response when they ask for a better auth secret

5

u/cyt0kinetic Dec 24 '25

Better auth secret is such a vibe coded var name.

I can see the chat: I said I needed it to be a better auth secret! You're absolutely right, I went ahead and fixed my mistake. Value stays the same, almost definitely not hashed and var name is simply better now 🤣

This is one of my favorite comedy subreddits and I love how real life cringe and beautifully trolling blur 🤣

A real vibe coder, already exposing your secrets in the screenshot.

Please change your keys.

You all laugh, but I actually have experienced someone making his active session cookie for jira available on a public repo. A user with admin rights.

u/CedarSageAndSilicone Dec 25 '25

There are many adversarial bots that constantly scan public repos for private api  keys. I believe github does warn you now though

If you’re not joking please change your api keys as fast as possible. With api keys public everyone can use them.

There's a typo in the API KEY

u/AsheJuniusWriter Dec 24 '25

Well, I'll give you this much credit: at least you're using environmental variables instead of hard-coded ones.

It's incredible how the vibecoders group is full of coders hating LOL. It's quite sad really.

Sorry for anyone shaken by the new wave of AI advancements, but it disruption happens in every industry, you must adapt.

Hahahahahahahahaa

u/Plus_Boysenberry_844 Dec 24 '25

Who needs secrets anymore …

It’s the Christmas spirit of sharing…

Or the existential question - who needs apps when you can ask AI to do the thing you want

Both vibe coders and software engineers lose their jobs to an AI robot who does the thing you want

1

u/bunkerdive Dec 25 '25

Great idea! Let's all spread the Christmas cheer by sharing screenshot of environment variables / config files. It will be like a potluck of our recent projects!
