So many app landing pages are just like โ€œfor the AI cloudโ€ and Iโ€™m like oh okay thanks for clearing that up. ๐Ÿ™‚

Vibe coding isnโ€™t inherently bad, but I suspect itโ€™s generating โ€œlegacy codeโ€ at a much higher rate than we ever have before.

And if vibe coding potentially encourages code illiteracy, who will fix all that legacy code when itโ€™s running major systems and inevitably needs fixing?

I wonder if vibe coding will make traditional coders more valuable in the future. It seems every time we climb the ladder of abstraction - transistors, assembly, C, the web, etc - people skilled in the lower level sometimes become more valuable or specialized.

C programmers be like "I know a place" and take you one element past the end of the array

You have an obligation to fight bad art with good art. If you make it (and you can), you must make it. If you can't make it (seriously, you can, just start), support it. If you can't afford to support it, talk about it.

Had an amazing #GDC! We celebrated the launch of our new game, now available for all Netflix subscribers: www.buckgames.co/kid-cosmo

We had a 5-star launch, announced our new studio @play-buck-games.bsky.social, did press interviews, had some great meetings, made new friends, & enjoyed the weather!

Dumping my 401k and putting it into this

its just this really strange fundamental misunderstanding of art and expression. the bizarre idea (usually from those without the capacity to find their own inner artist) thinking THE ULTIMATE PAINTER would no longer have to paint but instead have a room full of finished works

ai art is like being a runner and youre excited for a marathon and youre training and then someone comes up and says 'why not use this new 'car tech' it can drive you to the finish line and youll have run the marathon without that pesky running'. then theyre confused when you say no and run instead
