The solution to a vibe coded app is to vibe code the status page as well.
I Work Very Hard, And I Would Like To Try Cake By A Horse Hello. I am a horse. I work very hard at my job of being a horse. When humans say move the heavy thing, I move the heavy thing. When humans sit on top of me and pull on my head, I carry them where they want to go. The main food the humans give me is hay and oats. But I am thinking it would be nice to have a different food. I am thinking I would like to try cake. Yes, yes. Cake. I know all about it. When humans eat cake, it is in glad times. It is the food for a celebration, such as when a woman becomes 47. I have seen cake on the Fourth of July. When humans have a cake, they stand around it and clap hands and smile and say happy birthday at each other. Sometimes there are beautiful markings on a cake, such as balloons or a pink shape. Sometimes the top of a cake is on fire and a boy must blow on the fire with mouth wind. This is the scariest cake. I do not want this kind. But I will eat any other cake. Any cake that is not the fire cake that tries to kill the boy. Please understand: I do not get money for doing work. I do not get to go inside the house. All I am either doing my horse job or standing in my pen or eating food off the floor. I always do these things. But I have never once gotten cake and I would like it very much. I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children. I am more helpful to the farm. Children do not move the heavy things like me or let anyone ride on them. And yet they get cake. Maybe the humans will realize this. Maybe they will say, "You know who deserves cake? That horse. That horse whose back we are always on." Every day I dream about what it will be like if I get to eat cake. Here is what will happen. First, I will walk to the cake and putt my nose at it like hrrfff to make and stomping my hooves to make sure it is not a snake. Then I will trot in a circle to show that I am a horse and I am large. After that, I will nuzzle the cake to …
The horse op-ed is an instant classic. I can't tell you how much joy this piece gives me.
It should be taught in every introductory writing class in no small part because the horse arguments are so compelling. "I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children."

个 Post • • • X.com Andrej Karpathy • @karpathy - Drafted a blog post - Used an LLM to meticulously improve the argument over 4 hours. - Wow, feeling great, it's so convincing! - Fun idea let's ask it to argue the opposite. - LLM demolishes the entire argument and convinces me that the opposite is in fact true. - lol The LLMs may elicit an opinion when asked but are extremely competent in arguing almost any direction. This is actually super useful as a tool for forming your own opinions, just make sure to ask different directions and be careful with the sycophancy. 11:56 AM • 3/28/26 • 1.3M Views • 1.2k 17 1.9K • 20K 贝 5.4K 企
Love reading the genius mind of Andrej Karpathy
Anthropic’s “auto mode” for Claude Code has a 17% false negative rate - 17% of the time it will run dangerous commands because they are misclassified as safe. (www.anthropic.com/engineering/...)
Actual Russian Roulette with a loaded revolver has a false negative rate of 16.67%.
So, that’s a thing.
It’s a real missed opportunity in Project Hail Mary that at no point does anyone look to the camera with a steely gaze and declare, “It’s daylight saving time.”

Must be something in the water because I just wrote a very similar rant. It’s more a plea for constraints in a vibe coding era but I was specifically triggered to write it by people proclaiming developers used to get in their way. Love your posts! matthogg.fyi/vibe-coding-...
This is closely related to my latest tyrade against llms in regards to prototyping.
I legitimately believe that friction, scoping, and finite-ness are all good things. An infinite, frictionless, pan-scopic space of design isn't design at all. Goodness is borne out of wrestling with constraints.
"There’s something about reckless AI use, and vibe coding in particular, that’s bothered me for reasons I’ve never quite been able to put my finger on until now. Indulge me as I rant about our total disregard for constraints and the good ideas that come from them." #ai

I keep saying this. ‘Oh, it can write the great American novel? Where is it? Where is the great American AI novel? Where’s all the shit Gen AI supposedly does better way than us?’ Reporters keep reporting this but —somehow they just believe it can do it. We don’t hear much about the results.
Neils can use semantic button elements for toggles in a CSS rendition of Doom. What’s your excuse?

Movie comedies might be back, folks. We found the genre hiding at the intersection of 2008 pop culture references, loving rip-offs of Back To The Future, and Toronto starring as ITS OWN GLORIOUS SELF. #movies

A vibe-coding dipshit, after a long hard day regurgitating slop back and forth with his chatbot, will unknowingly replicate that development environment.
He won't notice, for instance, that his exciting nurse-replacing chatbot, is incapable of washing a patient's ass. Just doesn't even notice.
This is a real video from the official White House account on a war that is currently killing people. I don’t know how the US is going to come back from this.

Why learn to code when you can use an LLM and pay a subscription fee for the rest of your life.
for some reason the left (goldman sachs) refuses to take AI seriously
The Ford Pinto had a death rate of 85 people for 10 million cars sold. The Cybertruck hasn't sold 10 million, but the fatality rate so far maths out to 1,452 people killed per 10 million sold.
The Cybertruck may be the deadliest road car, for the occupants, ever sold.
