When I told John our newest colleague “I understand your frustration but you need to calm down because collaboration is key”
John:
Okay okay okay, I get it. Collaboration is key and all, but these meetings freaking killing me. We need a better balance, where we can have effective meetings that actually drive progress without sacrificing our precious coding mojo.
At the end of the day, I just wanna do what I’m f*ckin paid for. But these damn meetings are killing my vibe, and it's downright frustrating. Can't we just get back to the good ol' days of actually getting sh*t done!

I've been vibe coding not knowing that it was called that until yesterday. I always give up before I reach anything interesting because I get about 4 or 5 good responses before it starts forgetting things and breaking already working code. And it's not even that complex of an idea.
There is no way people are coming up with whole applications with any level of complexity with these things.11 -
The future is now: https://ycombinator.com/companies/...
Only accepted if at least 50% of your code is AI generated / vibe coded. Imagine, they're even asking for it.
But that's very interesting. There is not a decent vibe coding tool in the market imho.
So, where the fuck do all those people that coding in? Just with copilot or so?
Afaik - real vibe coding is just not possible. Those people who say they generated games with vibe coding are actually just programmers tweaking a lot.
I have to say, there is quite some to learn about vibe coding (using my own tool) but to call it really a skill... It's stuff that is learned very fast. So especially asking for vibe coding experience is just idiotic.7 -
ok actually I just had an epiphany
vibe coding (which is telling an AI to do something instead of touching the code yourself) would be helpful on phones
so kind of like Tony Stark talking to Jarvis
instead of trying to find symbols on a phone
but if you have a laptop actually touching the code would still be superior
with a phone you could say what you want and just double check if it's right on the screen
soooo bathroom coding or when you're on the run middle of the street coding. hell... relaxing bath coding (I listen to podcasts in there by ziplocking my phone)
do you think people were far less workaholic before modern era. probably very relaxed time11 -
Me coding with my CLI vibe coding tool. I realize how good it works and decided to make it more serious. For example, you see me asking it to investigate the directory and asking read files afterwards. That shouldn't be needed. It wasn't originally designed to be a vibe tool, that's why. But i want it to make changes to an existing project. That's why I let it read the files. But, here, successful change was made: https://devrant.molodetz.nl/Screenc...9

For everyone who wants to try my self built vibe coding CLI-tool, you can do it online now: https://molodetz.nl/terminal/r
It's not made very safe - i know several ways to kill the server myself using this. But let's not do that guys :)
Let me know what you think. the more you play with it, the more you'll find out how genius it is. You don't want a vibe code IDE. You want a CLI. I can compile anything and let it auto fix the issues. It always knows what lib you have to install at certain error etc.18 -
I realized that my mood swings based on how my gf behaves. She is one of the few triggers
If she is sad depressed angry or disrespectful towards me i am no longer in a positive mood, it kills the whole vibe. On the contrary if she is happy acts feminine behaves normally and is respectful towards me i also become happy and in a better mood
Bad mood does not stop me from doing my work, but depending on how terribly bad it becomes, it may or may not impact my coding and work life. Since the main and central tool for coding is my brain and mental state, not physical muscles, Once the central part of anyone's tool (thats used to get the job done) is attacked or threatened, it weakens the person's ability to perform as good as they have been, or worse, completely blocks them off from performing well
This is one of my biggest fears; Anyone who's capable, intentionally or not, of weakening the central part of my tool for work (in this case mind and mental state), begins to gain power and leverage over me (hold on this is actually a brilliant idea to have in mind, a malicious way to exploit and leverage the target victim is by attacking the central tool they use to get the work done)
However i am a mentally strong person (due to way too much trauma from school, solving extreme difficulty coding problems, hoes and financial struggles), but it does not help if i am attached to a person who i have feelings towards, a person who became the second half of me, "the better half". It is difficult to reject or all of a sudden stop loving the person who you loved for years or months. Such person can more easily attack my central tool
My question is--does anyone know how to protect the central tool from anyone being able to exploit or weaken it? For example if my gfs bad behavior puts me in a bad mood, how to prevent that from happening? How do i not care? Or how do i care but still not let it affect my mood in a negative light? If that makes sense10 -
I did see two posts about vibe coding.
While it's a bit hyped and not that convenient yet, I actually vibe coded two applications in Rust / C# using my own vibe coding tool. My vibe coding tool is very convenient since it's a terminal app you can talk to that will read, write and execute on winning systems (Linux). You don't have to copy or paste source code as with other vibe coders.
This project url, binaries and source: https://molodetz.nl/retoor/r. Use free version if you do not have openai key. If you do, use commercial version and configure OPENAI_API_KEY in your env.
It's written in C because I'm crazy.
Since it's written in C it's maybe not convenient as educational resource but it does contain all information you need to let AI control your pc / filesystem and instruction following.
There's also a python module of that software. You can do rpylib.chat("user", "prompt") with it and it'll be a session. I prompted yesterday 150(!!!!)mb with it by batching using python.
The r project supports context (instruction file) that makes it a real local agent. If you're creative, sky is the limit with this tool. I use it all the time. I copied to /usr/local/bin and if I need gpt, I just type r(f) in my terminal or directoy "r [the prompt no quotes needed]". Last example exits the application after result of prompt. If you say "Hey, grade the quality of my script.py from 1-10" it will do that. The options are endless. Ultimate automation tool.9
