There's a new kind of coding I call "vibe coding", where you fully give in to the vibes, embrace exponentials, and forget that the code even exists. It's possible because the LLMs (e.g. Cursor Composer w Sonnet) are getting too good. Also I just talk to Composer with SuperWhisper so I barely even touch the keyboard. I ask for the dumbest things like "decrease the padding on the sidebar by half" because I'm too lazy to find it. I "Accept All" always, I don't read the diffs anymore. When I get error messages I just copy paste them in with no comment, usually that fixes it. The code grows beyond my usual comprehension, I'd have to really read through it for a while. Sometimes the LLMs can't fix a bug so I just work around it or ask for random changes until it goes away. It's not too bad for throwaway weekend projects, but still quite amusing. I'm building a project or webapp, but it's not really coding - I just see stuff, say stuff, run stuff, and copy paste stuff, and it mostly works.

The Internet is what it is -- a public infrastructure with open standards -- because of AI Gore. Thank you @algore !
He was at the origin of the legislation that opened what was then Arpanet to the public, based on TCP/IP, DNS, and other open standards.
The lobbying pressure for proprietary approaches was from giant telecom companies, such as AT&T.
When Al Gore and Bill Clinton held hearings about the "information superhighway", in 1993,the CEO of AT&T said "leave it to us".
Al Gore said "no!"
If AT&T had regulatorily captured the information superhighway, it would have been based on ATM, ISDN, metered access, and probably would have provided little content neutrality (Big Telecom never liked content neutrality). It took until 1996 for AT&T to embrace the internet with its WorldNet ISP product, one of the first to offer unmetered, unlimited access.

"We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people." --JFK

The depth of my love for this brother, can only be matched by the depth of my pain learning of his loss. A immensely talented man with the ability to give voice to the human condition portraying the lives of those whose humanity is seldom elevated until he sings their truth.
