100% ai written. Which makes it 10x the lenght it should had been.

It walks you through the simple 1000 prompt journey of creating and refining a Hello World program from initial creation to finally printing "Hello World" correctly on screen.

The d is a g and an i at the same time.

Its as impressive as it is annoying.

They're going viral on Twitter then getting exploited because the database is exposed

I work in municipal development and we have 20 new "developers" a week trying to get us to buy their permitting apps. All of them are willing to offer us an exclusive discount as an early adopter, and the few I've had meetings with haven't even been able to tell us what backend databases the apps use or understand that there's a difference between an Amending Plat, Site Development permit, and a Building permit.

And I have to fight the mayor every time because he's all aboard with the AI hype. He tried having all the city ordinances and decelopment manuals re-written by GPT to make them easier to understand, and we had to get the city attorney to explain that not only was it idiotic, but that it would cost a couple hundred grand just to have his firm go over everything and explain the specifics of how dumb it was, and that if a code re-write is needed (and it is), they should spend that money hiring a firm specializing in code review.

The slop apps are out there - they're just all being pitched to governments and CEOs that have infinite faith in anything that will make people more expendable.

Vibe coding only works for "I need a one time use python script that processes this data and I can't be assed to spend 2 hours remebering how to use Pandas right now."

Not for million dollar apps.

Okay Claude, but this is running on iOS. Do you think there's another solution?

That's what happened with "Rockstar" developers a few years ago...

They'll certainly cream on your crop.

That's what vibe coding does to one

Because it's AI slop.

You know why the code is wrong because you have the experience to see where the issue is and what it is.

If you've learned coding with LLMs from the start, you won't acquire the experience needed to be able to tell what is wrong.

I've worked with a client that tried to generate code for a HCI bluetooth device, trying to recreate the full Bluetooth stack, instead of picking the right product from the start, with a working stack.

And that was a client that had technical knowledge, just not for Bluetooth and HCI.

And if you try to tell the AI what's wrong, it will create bullshit code until it kinda works, adding more issues along the way.

I'm sure that AI will replace coders one day, but LLMs aren't AI and they are neat ready to write decent, complex code.

Apparently the image itself is AI generated which is kind of an ironic twist
