Thatโ€™s not a bad course of action if you just want a prototype. But if you are an experienced dev, act like a lead, use a vibe coder as a junior-to-mid developer, giving it contstrainta and code reviews, the solution is much more production ready.

If you donโ€™t know how to code at all, youโ€™re doing the equivalent with vibe coding of hiring an unknown software engineer to build you a system without any best practices. If you do that in real life, youโ€™ll have a working prototype, but ultimately need to start over.

It's kind of helpful, and terrifying, that they're serious, in a "grand scheme" they're probably right, and they will ABSOLUTELY let us all be the exploding Starship as they experiment with our economy.

Thatโ€™s how their shell game works. Every loan takes capital, multiples it by 5-20x, and runs it through a series of financial products to make it look like capital again.

Humanified | BassicNerd's Den My midlife has become preoccupied with walkable cities, and moving explicitly away from car-centric design.ย  Below are resources on the reasoning behind this, and examples of the difference in lifesty...

Folks who know me, for better or worse, know about my fascination with, and immersion in, walkable cities and places built for people, not cars. I've put together a page that compiles my favorite resources on the topic.
