But Cursor just took an important step toward artificial general intelligence — someone gave it dumb orders and it told them to go away. Git gud, scrub.
Ah, that primo British wit. Good for taking the sting out of the unending nightmare that is modern life.
Excellent work as usual, David.
this is the first time i hear of vibe coding and what the fuck, why is shoving AI-generated code into your project called vibe coding
there’s got to be a better name. bogocoding?
It’s worse than that. It’s avoiding ALL coding and ONLY using code an LLM generated from instructions you gave it, AND ALSO not reviewing that code just assuming that it works. Merely shoving AI generated code into a project is not enough to be bogovibes.
previously known as “coding by whacking the keyboard with dildos”
Rubber dick debugging
Rubber dick? I hardly know’er!
excellent method, compatible with all worst practices and suitable for posting on hackernews as well
enterprise dildomancy
figure 1: the loved one whacks a keyboard with a dildo, thus reproducing Tumblr
“coded by dildo” coined in this post and I have a whole tag here going back nearly 10 years
I have an answer for you but you might learning what it is
do you even code?
not if i can avoid it
the amateur computer toucher: i love code! have you ever heard of docker? it really makes my node.js portable!
Principal Computer Touching Engineer: fuck computers, fuck programming, and fuck you
As an app fondler with 20 years of experience, it’s also “fuck my life”
I love programming. I truly, genuinely loathe it. I like the way it hurts my sanity. I can’t stop thinking about programming. I want to program more. I don’t just think about programming, I’m always thinking about thinking about programming. I love my computer. I hate computers. I love the concept of computers, but I hate my computer specifically. I hate your computer too. I love programming, but I hate programs. Some programs are cool I guess. The only thing I hate more than my programs are your programs. All of your programs. I hate procedural programming. I want to like functional programming, but the best I can do is liking liking functional programming. I hate having a crush on types. I want to do everything with types. I cannot do shit with types. I don’t know whether to blame myself or types. I love it. I love procedural programming. You just write out things and the computer does the things. It sucks. The ISO C standard is the best homage to Franz Kafka ever written. The tickets cost a hundred bucks to some Swiss people to even read it. C++ jumped the shark, too unbelievable. I love Rust. No, my code doesn’t fucking compile because I spent eighteen hours trying something fun instead of just making things work. I love it. Can’t have bugs if you don’t even have an executable. I love Lisp. If I sit on my hand until it goes numb, it feels like someone else is writing it. I hate shell scripts, except when I write them. I am the only person who writes Bourne shell good. I love bugs. I am fine and my mental health is fine. I do not hate myself very much. I do not hate myself as much as I hate programming. Most of all I hate people who do a lot of programming and do not hate programming. Programming is great. It should be illegal.
First usable advice from an “AI”.
