Creating accounts should be allowed, but using an account could require age check.

People should be able to create an account at birth. Then when they grow up, they are ready to use the account. This way proves that the account owner is at least as old as the account.

Don't fight with AI. People who reported increased throughput don't verify AI output. Programs which are simply AI wrappers don't verify the output. If a serious programmer starts to design an algorithm that verifies AI output, the progress starts to slow down because you are doing something not needed if you don't use AI.

People here provide counterexamples to show this article is bullshit. Don't forget, fraud detection is about statistics. Outliers always exist.

Machine learning systems also learn your pattern. The article gives simple SQL rules. Don't dismiss this article as worthless.

Initially Cider was branded as a light client that opened much faster than traditional IDEs.

Now, ironically with so many extensions and LLM computing, users seem to forget that they chose Cider because of its lightweight.

Markdown was a hype in late 2010s that has cooled down due to chatbots.

In turn, chatbots pump up markdown by making it the default output format.

If you want to be vibe all the way, why don't you ask a bot to summarize the long output?

Using bots has been insane and self-referrential.

By dog fooding itself, the tool doesn't fail to live up to the expectations of its users.

Is it due to the feature that the author claimed "this blog post is itself Lean code"?

This article is interesting but hard to read in certain places because it contains distracting information.

Better to organize it into main findings and side stories.

I love the adjective "hand-written" and I'm gonna add it to my repositories.

Although I don't practice vibe coding, I'v observed that the first principle of vibe coding is to never look at the generated code. (You learn the code from external metrics, such output correctness and memory usage)

This isn't surprising. What is not mentioned is that Claude Code also found one thousand false positive bugs, which developers spent three months to rule out.
