Think an interior designer having to reengineer the columns and load bearing walls of a masonry construction.

What are the proportions of cement and gravel for the mortar? What type of bricks to use? Do they comply with the PSI requirements? What caliber should the rebars be? What considerations for the pouring of concrete? Where to put the columns? What thickness? Will the building fall?

“I don’t know that shit, I only design the color and texture of the walls!”

And that, my friends, is why vibe coding fails.

And it’s even worse: Because there are things you can more or less guess and research. The really bad part is the things you should know about but don’t even know they are a thing!

Unknown unknowns: Thread synchronization, ACID transactions, resiliency patterns. That’s the REALLY SCARY part. Write code? Okay, sure, let’s give the AI a chance. Write stable, resilient code with fault tolerance, and EASY TO MAINTAIN? Nope. You’re fucked. Now the engineers are gone and the newbies are in charge of fixing bad code built by an alien intelligence that didn’t do its own homework and it’s easier to rewrite everything from scratch.

CRISPR on our gonads to produce estrogen instead of testosterone?

🤔 It’s pretty tempting, and as long as it’s not hereditary, I’m all up for it. 🏳️‍⚧️

Ah yes, blaming the victim. How didn’t I think of that! Next up: telling women it’s their fault when they get assaulted because their skirt was one inch too high.

Suddenly, explicit photos and videos of her were being spread and resold like wildfire alongside abusive material: upskirting videos and photos of sleeping, naked women.

I think you deliberately skipped this part of the article.

I keep getting the suspicion that many of these flashy projects are red herrings paid by Musk or Zuckerberg or whoever to stop people from actually developing reasonable alternatives.

Because shit like this keeps happening over and over.

The electric violin scene was cool, tho.

Thanks!

So what exact oil did you use, and what brand? I love that finish because it reminds me of my school’s desks (big nostalgia moment) so I would love to replicate it.

Holy Moly, this is beautiful 😲
