Well, cofounding Github helps

100%, but in a professional setting you often work with code _not_ written by you. What if that code is written by someone well above my ceiling?

> but could not recreate for a good hour.

For certain work, we'll have to let go of this desire.

If you limit yourself to whatever you can recreate, then you are effectively limiting the work you can produce to what you know.

This sh*t is getting out of hand right now. I deleted my Twitter recently because every tweet would have AI replies. And HN is dying the same fate.

You can't have extensions in mobile browsers, right? While this seems like it targets mobile users.

New comment by jatins in "Ask HN: Client took over development by vibe coding. What to do?"

Here's one way to approach this: Imagine you work for a giant company where humans would push 10k lines of code per week. In a codebase like that there's no expectation that you'd understand everything. However, there is an expectation that teams contributing code will "own" it.

So if the client is contributing you should ask them if they are okay for long term maintenance and fixes of new code they are adding. If not, then maybe you should discuss pricing changes because now you are effectively maintaining code written by them which requires different set of skills and arguably higher cognitive overhead.

There's this weird thing about AI generated content where it has the perfect presentation but conveys very little.

For example the whole animation on this website, what does it say beyond that you make a request to backend and get a response that may have some tool call?

I am reminded of Steve Jobs's video where he says Microsoft has no taste everytime MS pushes this stuff on it's users. True in 90s, true now

There are lot of readymade neovim configs you can copy. I was experimenting recently with lazy.vim and took a git clone and cp command to get up and running

tl;dr: One file, bad (gets too big for context)

So give you agent a whole obsidian

I am skeptical how that helps. Agents cant just grep in one big file if reading entire file is the problem.

To be fair an average therapist is also pretty sycophantic. "The worst person you know is being told by their therapist that they did the right thing" is a bit of a meme, but isn't completely false in my experience.

New comment by jatins in "AI coding is gambling"

jatins — Wed, 18 Mar 2026 18:25:03 +0000

Yeah, I don't think the metaphor applies exactly but I definitely see similarities from my personal experience

1/ Dependency -- Once I got used to agentic coding, I almost always reached out to it even for small changes (e.g. update a yaml config)

2/ Addiction -- In the initial euphoria phase, many people experience not wanting to "waste" any time agent idle and they'd try to assign AI agents task before they go to sleep

3/ You trust your judgement less and less as agent takes over your code

4/ "Slot machine" behavior -- running multiple AI agents parallel on same task in hope of getting some valuable insight from either

5/ Psychosis -- We have all met crypto traders who'd tell you how your 9-5 is stupid and you could be making so much trading NFTs. Social media if full of similar anecodotes these days in regards to vibecoding with people boasting their Claude spend, LOC and what not

Yes, reporting should be a non event. This move will encourage bad behavior imo
