for whoever needs to hear this: you're not alone. i'm not vibecoding any of the software i write. i'm writing it by hand, but i've leveled up my emacs with eglot/lsp. i'm modernizing my stacks and use languages with excellent compilers. i think about how to do more with less. i'm trying to combine the best human-written libraries and modules and assemble them with minimal boilerplate. i enjoy reading your manuals and references. i believe in robust, secure, human-written software.

@mntmn not to toot my own horn but I'm doing a 40 day AI Lent to keep my brain sharp, it's probably the most intellectually rewarding (and frustrating) thing I've done recently

40 days of AI Lent - Bogdan Buduroiu

A tongue-in-cheek take on 'fasting' from AI-assisted coding, reflecting on engineering, and honing one's engineering skills through manual coding

@budududuroiu not to toot my own horn but I'm doing an almost 13,038 day fast from vibe coding.
@budududuroiu Insightful read so far, thanks for recording and sharing it!
