I run mine on an abacus.

It's really about hamstringing the AIs so they can't write crap. Writing code is not a problem anymore, so anyone with an idea can write a script to do what they want. But if they try to connect two ideas together, now they have a data modeling problem. This is where everything seems to fail with AI coding (largely because the original author had the idea piecemeal).

The problem with Claudish and this README is that the whole thing is vapid text adding up to nothing in particular. When AI takes over a project like this it really has no goal.

> Repeated regions add no iteration field to endpoint types, descriptor rows

So what? Is this a goal or an admission? Is this something you implemented or what was done before?

This is wild, nowhere was mentioned the cause of deaths?

Every time I leave my phone in the other room to “finally get some work done”, please enter this goddamn number we sent to your SMS, and I close my laptop.

Maybe you haven’t seen enough coworkers send you pages and pages of slop.

I find the questions are not clearly asked and somehow half baked as caveats toward the middle end of what it’s vomiting.

“One thing I deliberately didn’t touch” — about half the time this is something completely irrelevant or something that is actually the target of whatever you’re working on, and the shakespearean prose it says around this phrase is a “question” it has.

Everything you’re saying is how I feel as a native English speaker and it drives me absolutely nuts. People in airports are obsessed with telling you what you can’t do.

The one thing that kind of works for me is, “Well, what should I do?” when they bark orders about what I can’t do.

“You can’t have your boarding pass in your hand!”, when you’re in the x-ray. “Where should I put it now?”

Oh well, it turns out I actually can have it in my hand. Thanks.

This is the problem with commercial AI and the way our minds work; it writes garbage and we’re trained to think we’re stupid because we can’t understand it.

I've definitely wowed people with what I've built, and some of those people are investors... but actual revenue, no.

Yeah I agree, but the amount of resources I’ve used to vibe code is certainly way beyond what I’ve paid for it.

I suspect the hype will play itself out once the entire system of LLM-induced self gratification can’t sustain itself economically.
