I vibe coded an app that surprises me with a new DoorDash meal 3 x times a day.
On weekends, it even orders from two different restaurants (of the same genre) so I can decide the best Chicken Tender/Pizza/Burger joint in town is.
You can just do things. @AnthropicAI
Its mission was to use “government efficiency” as cover to fire a bunch of inspector generals and honest civil servants which enabled unprecedented corruption in federal contracts, payoffs to the Trump family, sell offs of public lands and resources etc
