the view out of my flight is literally covered in water as far as you can see

and: intelligent policy would be nice

it's 2025 and we're just now thinking that busses maybe should have winter tires on in the winter, because every time it snows (which is 7 months of the year) all the busses end up in various ditches and buildings

had a similar thought the other day - because I dabble in so much stuff and never really identify too deeply as any one thing, I'm not sure that my personae are very threatened when any of 'em get smoothed out

maybe there'll be some ultimate end when they all get wiped across the board, but

my car keys are left jacket pocket

could be! here's my thought experiment:

if you had some magic way to know that the output of the LLM was 100% letter-perfect identical to the code you would write as a human (without reading it or adjusting anything yourself)

if you knew it was materially the same and shipped it - is that vibe?

oh interesting!

as a distinction, I do believe you could graduate vibe code into "real" code with sufficient reading / attention / adjustment ("sufficient" here is a threshold people can argue)

for me, the vibe part is the specific lack of reading / needing to care about what's inside the box

these are real

unfortunately I think the irony of trying to define a very clear threshold between what is vibes and what is not vibes is, itself, just a vibe check

I've tried a lot of factory games over the years and mostly they just make me want to play factorio again instead

+1

we vibe code stuff all the time because we only care about the output working (say, some lil tool with a quick interface) and don't even read the code itself

sometimes we LLM-produce very very specific code that is read and vetted and pushed in thoughtfully, but that's not just on vibes

I use blender on both mac and PC and all of the hotkeys are the same but all of the positions are different

absolutely impossible

something something bigotry neuron

(to be clear, claude itself wasn't the issue - we all also use llm code extensively and it saves our bacon too. the issue is randos coming in and just _doing stuff_ en masse faster than we can tame it or even talk to them about not doing that)
