Version 1 of my iOS app took 20 days of AI "vibe coding".
Version 2 took 2 weekends, shipped 8 new features, and hit 200 downloads in 3 days.
AI is no longer about prompting. We’ve officially entered the era of Agentic Coding.
Here’s what that actually looks like 🧵👇 1/8
@AnthropicAI And if you actually play golf, Par 5 is free on the App Store.
Zero ads, no backend, and your data stays entirely on your device.

(P.S. I plan to open-source the code at some point!) 8/8
@AnthropicAI This isn't a theoretical tech demo. Par 5 is a fully shipped, production-ready app that golfers are using today. I wrote a full deep-dive on this workflow, the shift in how I build, and the hilarious bugs I hit.

Lost my iPhone & filed a claim with @AIGinsurance via @AppleSupport — 30+ days, no updates. I’m still told to pay for insurance on a phone I don’t have. Companies bend/break rules however they want, but customers must obey? Ridiculous! #AppleCare#CustomerServiceFail
Terraform didn’t fail DevOps.
Reactive Infrastructure-as-Code did.
IaC only reconciles when humans run apply.
Crossplane added reconciliation loops — but also CRD sprawl and cognitive overload.
State is fragmented, opaque, and brittle.
@karpathy I have same issue with spams on Verizon. But since I upgraded to iOS26 Beta, the notifications is practically zero. The screening seems to be better than previous versions of iOS.

From punch cards to prompt engineering, one thing has never changed:
The best engineers aren’t the ones who resist change.
They’re the ones who build the future.

🧵 Is software engineering dead now that anyone can code with AI?
After building a full golf app using vibe coding and ChatGPT, I started getting this message a lot:
"Do we even need engineers anymore?"

Agents and MCPs are where we’re headed.
You’ll build teams of smart, goal-driven tools—not monoliths.
If you’re not tinkering with LangChain or RAG-based agents yet, this is your nudge.
