I substituted every single include into a single 166 000 line file and sent it. Grok froze :(
keep going, maybe you can bring it down
Are you sure it wasn’t just the frontend on your system that froze?
Nah, Grok took 3 minutes and said along the lines “Something went wrong, try again later”
Probably failed at tokenization or hit a fail safe
ah yes i will upload main_source-code-file.sh and ask it to help why it wont open
I should give it my code, if they use that for training Grok will never work again.
Lol… sure you can have my proprietary source code…
Hmm, can you upload files? Wonder if they set an upper limit. Wonder which language would burn the most cycles?
Ask for all output in brainfuck.
bf was my first thought, but I would think that would be very easy to parse for computers, and hard for humans. So maybe something that’s a lot more verbose?
How about feeding it a bunch of Twitter source code and asking it to translate into JSON Programming Language? Maybe it’ll somehow accidentally hack/exploit itself.
But seriously, no one should be using Twitter or interacting with Grok at all, even just to fuck with it.
@Vince @KickMeElmo malbolge is computationally intense to generate. It’s self-modifying, is ternary instead of binary, and after each operation the next opcode gets replaced by its mod 94 value.
It’s like the insane sudoku of coding.
Could go for a middleground. Verbose -and- obscure. Check out fetlang when you’re not on a work computer.
I have asked several LLM to output brainfuck and Malbolge, but none of them seem capable to do so, even those that implement train of thought, me included ofc.
Knowing how half-assed they’ve been deploying Grok a ZIP bomb would probably work on it if they allowed file uploads.
I really want someone to try this and report back. It really does feel like something that could execute.
not the same thing at all, but there’s already been a couple of pretty high profile “prompt injection” malware cases out there.
10 PRINT CHR$ (205.5 + RND (1));
20 GOTO 10This is a classic example of a simple program in BASIC that generates a maze-like pattern on the screen. Let’s break it down:
10 PRINT CHR$ (205.5 + RND (1))
: This line prints a character to the screen.is a function that converts a numeric value to a character.
205.5 + RND (1)
generates a random number between 205.5 and 206.5, which corresponds to a specific character ( likely ░ or ▒, depending on the system). TheRND (1)
function generates a random number between 0 and 1.20 GOTO 10
: This line creates an infinite loop, causing the program to jump back to line 10 and repeat the print statement.
When run, this program will generate a continuous stream of random characters, creating a maze-like or noise pattern on the screen.
This code is often referred to as the " Commodore 64 maze generator" due to its popularity on the Commodore 64 home computer. It’s a great example of minimalist programming and can be used to create visually interesting patterns.
Why are all my variables suddenly named after SS officers?
Führer loop
- Auswitch statement
- V2latile variable
- Goebboolean
- Zyklon C++
- Left shift, Reich shift
- Open and close Parenzer
- Iron Cross-compiler
Thanks I hate it!
if (hasBillion) { throw new NaziSalute(); }
It’s for familiarity, that way you can remember the variables better. taps head

Modern problems…
Require traditional 1933 solutions!
Yeah, that’s definitely a thing that is perfectly legal to do. Your company will definitely be fine with that.
my compant pays for openAI and gemini, so I guess they are fine.
My company actually desires that we use AI. If you fix a problem quickly and it works perfectly but you’ve done it manually… it’s somehow worse than a colleague who took twice the amount of time and had a bad solution, but “generated by AI!”
JFC and I thought having to work in an open-office plan was the worst thing a company could do to me.
Not the mandatory volunteering to help plan, execute, and clean up after the optional mandatory after-work in-office no-alcohol team building event?
One thing I actually liked about my last company was that our team-building events involved great food, copious amounts of alcohol, and edibles. True, I had to bring the edibles myself, but nobody complained.
That’s one of the craziest things about this. My employers for years would constantly beat it into us, “proprietary information, trade secrets, confidential IP, data security. Make sure we have NDAs in place with suppliers.” Now just give it all away to these random giant companies.
I’m convinced this man has never used a computer
Well according to his lawyer…
The more he speaks, the more apparent it is that he had no idea what he is talking about.
I find that without being able to see the rest of my IDE it makes no sense to just paste a single class worth of code at a time in there, it has no context for the rest of the application
You’ve heard of monorepos, but have you tried monofile development?
He probably thinks that the entire application is only one source file
source code? i don’t think you know what you’re talking about… it’s called a prompt
SLASH
ESSS (emphasis because hate)
He also thinks that the number of lines of code produced is a relevant measure of productivity, so him not understanding this isn’t super surprising.
Wait so are they using grok to code grok? No wonder it keeps getting shittier
His engineers swear by it! To his face, at least.
When he asks to see their code, they send him a single file.
Remember when he had Twitter devs PRINT out their code so he could go over it with them?..
Regardless of whether it is truly superior (it isn’t, but neither is Cursor, if you think about it), it is actually more tedious to “cut and paste” the “source code file” and then paste back the output.
It is far simpler to just initiate a chat within Cursor, allowing it to identify all the files necessary for context alongside the one being viewed.
From the genius and his whipped minions that brought you MechaHitler after some “fixes and improvements”…
…Comes the same AI that offers to “fix your code.”
Wow. Simply astounding. A magnificent feat indeed, to waste so many finite precious resources over such garbage.
Kindly Ctrl+A and shift-delete “All your code files”, sir.
LOL the macos dictionary entry/quicklook entry for “MechaHitler” gives you Grok’s wikipedia page
Which happens because wikipedia redirects “Mechahitler” to Grok
Holy coconuts it REALLY DOES! That’s some weapons grade level snark right here LOL. Wow that “controversies” section…
Honestly great move to immortalize when fascist strongmen act “weird” and embarass themselves to the world by sharing their true thoughts.
I didn’t know abiut MechaHitler. At this point we can safely say we’re living in the dystopia
Does he really don’t know the difference between cut and copy?
What if this is a plot to literally steal your code? You give it to the AI, page refreshes and clears your clipboard. Your entire “source code file” is now theirs, and probably part of the training set for Grok 5.
The first part is a joke, but the second part…
Ctrl+Z undoes the cut.
Assuming people upload their code to fix it, that means it’s non working code. Great training material!
I’m joking but I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t think that through…
Get popcorn ready
Upload the entire Linux kernel, then submit the “fixed” code as a PR to Linus.
Enjoy popcorn
make sure to mention that the fix is by Grok for maximum lols
My sibling in christ, we are trying to code not cause a NATO conflict.
I’d love to see Linus verbally bitchslap the fuckwit. Or physically, that’d be cool too.
I think that Linus becoming less of an abusive asshole over the years has been a positive development, but I wouldn’t mind the return of the old for this event
i’d love to see linus revoke twitters license to use linux somehow
