Also, as a dev, this kind of coding drives me fucking crazy, all the insane verification harnessing and imagined deterministic proofs overlaid on C++. It's the most awful unenjoyable way to code. Full dump on Russian 'Threat Market'. ```


I’m skeptical myself, but it seems that more than the f-35 source code has been leaked. If you follow through to the image in the tweet, you can see a breakdown
9TB of source code is still a lot, but maybe reasonable. My old journal repo is like 2GiB by itself and that’s just one person taking notes and writing down software sketches for a decade. Nixpkgs is like 6GB or so checked out.
I guess I can imagine a bunch of embedded tool chains plus systems code, divers, and stuff adding up quick. sheesh no wonder this thing sucks.
Before there was vibecoding there was outsourcing and elaborate Manhattan Project style strategies for parceling out work to untrusted foreign sweatshops such that the nature of the whole could not be determined from analysis of the specifications of any particular part.
That might partially explain how projects like this could accrue such a massive unwieldy quantities of code, since we can now see the same effect on a smaller scale with unlimited vibecoding projects.
It’s a miracle anything works as well as it does and not a surprise planes keep falling out of skies in the civilian and military worlds.
