Vibe-coding (vibe-engineering) is like you're an expert ice sculptor carving a swan with 5 deranged ice sculptors with chainsaws who have never seen a swan. You have to describe it based on similar birds but sometimes you just bust out the chisel the old fashioned way.

I have a heap of projects to go over but first I need to see how viable it is to just dump them into multi part threads. Will those work on tumblr? Only one way to find out 2/2

Alright so OpenVibe made crossposting a no-brainer, so I threw my ancient Tumblr account into the mix. Maybe I’ll even crosspost to LinkedIn. I think this is a good a time as any to start posting project status updates again. Only hold up will be the character limits. This will be my litmus test 1/2

You're going to need a CFO to not manage that money. Here's my relevant experience:

As you can see I'm perfect for the role!

I still can't process I've been stuck in level 1 helpdesk again for over a year now and no one will hire me anywhere. When recruiters call for software jobs and I have to act like I'm cool but really I'm crying

I've started deep diving into advanced NestJS, Elixir, C#, general full-stack skills I might be missing. I'm always just short of a job. All my JS/TS and Rust and 7years of enterprise experience seems to be useless to employers. There must be some trick to finding tech work in 2026... I'm exhausted

I was happy to see Meta blow up the VR space for so many years, even if the actual Metaverse was braid dead as hell. I haven't seen that kind of residual latent tech advancement with their AI research exactly, but then I'm kind of yuck about most AI usage so far.

I keep trying to tell myself that just because I haven't been able to find another developer role in over a year doesn't mean my career is over. Probably.

I love the idea of kid's menu being subpar because:
1. The kiddo spit out that one artisnal meal you made and you never quite got over it.
2. Your kid gobbles slop up like wtf
3. Restaurant's know it's kid's cheat night and they can dump ketchup/BBQ/cheese on it and kids'll think it's 𝕱𝖎𝖓𝖊 𝕯𝖎𝖓𝖎𝖓

You know how tired I am of LinkedIn engineers telling me coding is dead? Engineering is alive but the AI types and fixes all the code. But why? That's the fun part. Just like art everyone wants to automate the fun part of everything. What's wrong with everyone?

Haven't heard of that engine, I may play around with it. I tried looking into the schroeder reverb and I'm not understanding how you made so many interesting sounds with it. Any tips without spilling secret sauce?

This is straight fire!! These sound amazing what language did you use?

I wouldn't mind giving it a go in GBstudio. Probably don't have the time commitment to learn actual assembly to make it happen raw but that's on my todo list. Just let me know if it's worth the time, free ofc, just went to help an incredible artist if I can

Because telling someone who's wrong they're right has no downsides. Better yet telling someone the wrong thing and doubling down with 0 culpability

LLM canabilism and poisoning are real and they're problems no one has an answer to. The way I see it, it's a future problem not worth worrying about in the eyes of the AI bros. They'll collect their yachts now and run.

That curve seems almost unrelated to LLM release. Makes me wonder if it was already having a natural falloff as questions moved to more specific groups like discord groups and subreddits for specific technologies

I saw this referenced with WGPU before. Great universal graphics API, but just further unique abstraction in the pool of things to know.

Oh my god these are fantastic, I wish I could afford a playdate 😵‍💫

#Cloudflare down, RIP helpdesk phone line

The one upside of generative AI is that it made me value human-made art more. Art that didn't really impress me before feels way more meaningful now. Thanks slop, you made me appreciate human creativity more than ever.

Amen. I use AI coding assistance but it always feels like the worst option and barely even faster vs just deep learning a concept and typing faster. It's a massive tech debt crutch. Plus who knows how much of it's training data is stolen. If the well gets poisoned I will not morn it's IQ drop

This image reads more to me as someone doesn't want their data used for training. We don't know what our data is being used for anymore. When it was just advertising algos that was one thing and honestly I didn't care. Now it's about training clankers to replace us and that's creepy

Oh man I forgot about beaker and dat. It was my first exposure to decentralized. At the time it seemed like no one cared about the concept. I'm not sure people still do. Bluesky hoisting ATP makes it seemless for non-technical users to start using, so I have high hopes for it's future

The fact take-home coding interviews take time-taken before submission into consideration means the tech industry really doesn't want moms or dads. How dare you have children and current jobs that take up your time. It's a battle royale just to get a job, while I'm holding toddlers.

A recruiter today act like it looked really bad that I didn't have a software job in almost a year. I was back at tech support because no one would hire me or hiring company went under. I was hoping potential jobs would look past this economic disaster. No one thinks I can do it. Are they right?

Today I got reprimanded by a helpdesk supervisor for putting a ticket under "Guest" because the email is example.com. She said those emails exposed info publicly. I tried to tell her that domain was reserved by IANA and perfectly safe, but nope.

I want to go back to being a software engineer 😓

This one is really pretty
