Wulfy—Speaker to the machines"Why hang out on the (#programming) forums then?"
This is something folks who don't #vibecode don't understand. Because they don't have the lived experience of vibecoding. All they know about it is from FEELS and other conservatives.
YOU STILL NEED TO BE A PROGRAMMER TO EFFECTIVELY VIBECODE!
After few decades of staring at the screen till your eyes bleed trying to figure out why "This function SHOULD work!", the romance of classical programming wears thin, since there is an alternative now. Sure some folks like pressing pins into their flesh. Good for them.
Its like enjoying the pure, liberating toil of digging trench with a spade. The satisfying crunch of the blade as it cuts the soil, the heft of a full tool as you throw it over your shoulder. The sweat.
Or you can sit in the air conditioned comfort of the digger, moving the joystick, digging at x10 the speed and going home without needing to take a shower just so you feel human.
Sure, diesel is cariciogenic, the treads crush everything and the digger is made in Asia with exploited labor. But there are no folks smashing the machine... Not since Brits hanged the leaders and deported the rest to Australia.
TL; DR: #Vibecoding is coding, but with powertools.
Its in the name.
MozStory of my work life: a feature I implemented in late 2024 has finally been tested by the embedded side. Who cannot make it work, and cannot send my code anything that even triggers any of the errors or warning about dodgy versions of that packet. I fear the spec they gave me has been changed significantly since I 'finished' my side (complete with test tool that sends those packets)
Freddy_NovaA friend of mine asked for my advice about #codingforkids .
He's a teacher on #elementaryschool and wants to start a small #coding project.
I can remember software witch uses coding-blocks for childeren to build small games.
A quick search on #google gave me #codemonkey
Not sure if this is what I'm looking for but we'll see.
When the dinosaurs roamed the earth and I was a #codemonkey and had to earn a crust bit flipping...
... I have developed eleventh commandment. Purely because of hours(days/weeks) of wasted time, chasing bugs that were not there.
The 11th commandment is;
👉 CHECK YOUR DATA 1ST👈
And so, I have burned two full compute cycles, trying to render a skull with the interior 'illuminated' with no light (0.0) on the interior faces.
The problem: Back-face darkening only works for faces pointing AWAY from camera. But inside a hollow object, the far wall faces TOWARD you.
We need the original geometric approach - but it failed for concave meshes.
When in #Blender (a reminder I have nearly 0 working knowledge with it), I found that both the inner and outer faces are identical.
The solution, while hacky, is entirely workable. Esp. since the skull object will be small when rendered.
Create a small sphere INSIDE the skull and because its a different object, we can assign 0.0 darkening to it.
Whats this then?
For the last couple of days, I have been implementing a 3D web objects rendering project. Its eyecandy bling for my #grafana #prometheus stack.
Im nearing the end of the Minimum Viable Product (on the presentation layer).
I am 'coding' in #Javascript something I have familiarity of approximately 0.2.
So I thought it would be worthwhile to create some metrics from all the coding prompts.
The ratio of feature ready to buggy results is actually pretty decent.
It starts to get into the weeds towards the end, because I am developing 'featuritis' and pushing the initial spec.
Otherwise, the error to code ratio is comparable to the old school #programming but I suck as a #programmer regardless if its by hand or by #AI 🤡
N.B. The diagram is my invention, I might fiddle with it more to track #vibecoding efficacy and analytics

N-gated Hacker News👨💻🚀 Oh look, they trapped an over-caffeinated code monkey in a while loop, and it birthed a half-dozen repos while the rest of us were busy dreaming about unicorns. 🦄 Because, who needs sleep when you have GitHub AI cranking out spaghetti code faster than you can say "debugging nightmare"? 🤖🍝
