Are we actually going with vibe coding as the name for this behavior? Surely we could introduce an alternative that is more disparaging and more dramatic, like bong-rip coding or shart coding.
I hate the current concept of vibes and take it to mean all appearance no substance all pandering no sincerity, so it feels entirely appropriate to me.
I’m fine with the name. It’s a good signifier that shit code has been written.
Programming by hallucination
coding with vibes
ChatGPT as the Sybian of coding
Naturally, it’s been done before, without ai, and (inevitably, I guess) using rust.

It is a kind of fuck machine.

As an added bonus, its clear he’s getting trolled for his terminal startup brain:
EDIT: Found some dipshit trying to defend the guy in the wild, rehashing the arguments used for AI art:
The phrase “trying to gatekeep what was once their moat” makes me feel like a character in A Scanner Darkly who has reached the “aphids, aphids everywhere” stage of Substance D abuse
I reread (listened to actually) that book last week. it’s probably qualified as “uncomfortably prescient” at every point since idk the bush administration. in particular barris is exactly the sort of psycho this moment was made for, there’s not that much difference between him and musk
I haven’t read the book but I really enjoyed the movie.
they’re almost identical. biggest difference is that barris is less charismatic (not being RDJ), creepier and more clearly a crypto nazi in the original. I don’t think you’re missing anything by sticking with the movie
Leo certainly didn’t gatekeep his app’s security, hem hem
well that was a waste of frickin time. i spent this evening making a lovely vertical video and it can’t be a youtube short cos it’s over 3 minutes. same limit on instagram/facebook reels.
i put it up unlisted for the curious: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91MXv2MthMk
i mean it misunderstands the assignment, but hopefully it amuses
at least I can avoid for a bit longer having to contemplate lines like
ffmpeg -i out-sq1.mp4 -lavfi "[0:v]scale=1920/1080*iw:1920/1080*ih,boxblur=luma_radius=min(h\,w)/40:luma_power=3:chroma_radius=min(cw\,ch)/40:chroma_power=1[bg];[bg][0:v]overlay=(W-w)/2:(H-h)/2,setsar=1,crop=w=iw*1080/1920" -crf 10 -x264-params keyint=10:scenecut=0 out-vert1.mp4^-- statements dreamt up by the utterly Deranged
tiktok’s limit is 10 minutes but the edit has to be completely different (no title cards or branding) and not clear i can say the website url in the video. also UK monetisation kicks in at 10k followers and 100k views in the past 30 days. i am unconvinced as yet.
You should actually waste even more time and make a nightcore/sped up version. This way you can create the sneerclub brainrot tiktok genre, so that we can educate the children
