Meetup #vibecoding.
This time we challenged ourselves not to look at the code and rely purely on “vibe coding” while building a Tamagotchi application (#throwback).
This led to interesting insights, and faster (not better) coding. Unfortunately, not all Tamagotchi's survived ;-)

A few weeks ago, we had the pleasure of taking an introductory diving course organized by OBA. Nicolette and Stephanie guided us on an underwater journey where we became familiar with the water, and our breathing. Now the short movie is ready, have fun!
