Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
What I haven't figured out is this...
If we're all going to LLMs instead of asking each other for help (or providing help to others), then how do the models learn new things? Aren't we no longer generating the same volume of consumable data?
I suppose we can provide feedback to the models to tell them if their solution worked, but I can't tell if that sort of feedback is more or less useful than just crawling forums.
Us seniors are gonna have so much work a few years down the road. ☺️
Gotta have something to do when we're unable to retire. 😉
The name is an insult to the people who write software for vibrators.

yo i am fuckin drinkin up the proper use of it/its right now ughhhhh yeaagh
edit: gosh darn that’s a low bar
Question, are you being sarcastic, or did I actually manage to properly “speak the Englishes”
Hahaha nahhh I wasn’t being sarcastic. I just work with some higher-ups who constantly misuse its/their/etc. one of my coworkers thinks “again” is spelled “aging” and I will never correct her because it’s baffling to me.
Oh! I just did this (used an AI chatbot to help me code a web app) to easily resize images.
It was a great experience and I only edited about 5% of the code it provided. I used the bot via DuckDuckGo. The app is simple, eh, but it works. Would vibe code again fer sher.
Plan to share a link so the hackers can check your work?
I've heard good things about vibe coding primary use cases for common problems.
I have experience vibe coding unusual use cases. The AI was worse than useless for those.
So I'm curious how the corner cases and security stuff on common problems turn out. (I always get that kind of thing from a library, so I have no experience vibe coding those cases.)
(Genuinely curious. And obviously, no worries if you don't want to risk sharing.)
I would but this is totally just for me and it runs in nginx / php and I am going to guess you would just barf all over it.
But here's a post where I asked for help on this subject, and where I got the idea to write my own app. There are a number of other ideas in there, and one really good HTML/JS app from github that does the same thing but is way better.
Yeah but you could've googled it and found that it already exists and edited 0% of the code...
But Privacy
If that's your concern, you could just use gimp or krita or similar
Or do it with one command using ffmpeg
Does no-one remember the image-magick anymore?
Oh wow look at that beautiful website that made uBlock shine like a Christmas Tree ! What a beautiful specimen !
Okay hang on...this could be a thinly valid use for "vibe coding."
Is the only software for a particular use case proprietary, ad-ridden, and/or subscription forced, but you don't have time to dedicate to an entirely new project?
Quickly throw together open sourced "good 'nuff" alternatives to big corporate software!
Put their own tail between their jaws and see how they like it.
Oh, I didn't even notice how much ublock had blocked 😂
Gotta make it feel useful
