So we are now at the stage that AI coding agents don’t work because you can’t create a good google docs alternative from scratch without dependencies with $170 in one weekend.


I think the conclusion is that Vibe oding is shit, and I agree with this, but having an AI assistant that can do some specific tasks that you can review is a good strategy.

I also have a story about Vibe Coding, I had the AI make for me a mqarkdown editor with some extra features, it worked fine but the problem is I have no idea how it works, I do not know if I can add feature X easily or it needs a rewrite from scratch, I have no ideas for improvements or new features, if there is a problem I have no clue what causes it since I I never looked at the code.

So I concluded that I (others can do whatever they want, they are free people with their own standards ) I will only use Vibe Coding for throw away personal shit, that I will not make public, like for example I made some bash scripts, some python scripts to automate some stuff.
