vibing is actually an essential life skill it's just that it can't be all you have y'know

vibecoding (coding based on vibes but using my actual skills and brain to help me) is fun!! similar for me is vibecooking (cooking based on vibes but using my actual skills and brain to help me). it's fun even if you know very little, and also if you know a lot. AI just feels bad

i'm not gonna lecture on AI being inherently bad, there's probably ways to incorporate it into your vibing that don't result in your entire brain turning into soup and draining out of your skull, i just worry that this is what happens to most people who fall for the vibe thing

do you know how much you can learn by just. i don't know… writing a music synthesiser from scratch, without knowing much about the topic, looking up an absolute minimum of information? we've done that before. it's quite enjoyable. this is also how we do cooking. it's great fun

you only really learn things by forcing yourself to deal with how little you already know. if you just rely entirely on someone else's help, you don't learn very much

and that is why they force you to work through maths problems and stuff like that in school, one suspects

we never got all that far with it, but here, this video contains the source code and the audio output of the tiny little synthesier we “vibecoded” (with our brain, not with an AI) a bit less than a year ago

*synthesiser (lmao)

@hikari
me: today we are going to PRACTICE getting child 1 on their bus and immediately walk child 2 to their school. it doesn't start until thursday but we will PRETEND to drop you off to make sure we can do it.

5yo [once a minute for the next 30 minutes]: what are we doing. why are we here. you know i don't have school today right.

@hikari A.I. could be cool. LLMs are shoddy autocomplete software
