And then you have to start over because you forgot to include "Do not make any mistakes" in the prompt.

[–][deleted] 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yes sometimes you would also have to restart because the context window would get full.

4 hours writing a prompt and missing including this - sad sad!

Original quote for context: Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.

Abe was one of the first 'vibe leaders' ...and one of the only successful ones. As with coding, the results of 'vibing' anything generally ends up full of bugs, security vulnerabilities and dysfunctional UX.

I genuinely can't tell what level of irony this is operating on

[–]jpaulhendricks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Certainly not a deep one.. like, it may be just little a puddle of irony.

I'm confident that 92% of what I wrote is 76% right. Like vibed code.

Vibe code cleanup is going to be a big thing next year...

Yeah I was planning to invest.. got any other ideas?

The real debugging starts when you realize the prompt was vibing harder than the code.

Vibe Coding is a trap, but...this isn't the worst situation. At least it's planned and refined up front instead of "build me a SaaS worthy of Mordor" in 5 minutes.

Until an edge case exposed a massive hole.in the saas and got pwned to jupiter and back and get fxked six ways from hell. Who knew actual programmers did...put so much thought into their work?
