what is the word “vibe” doing here exactly?

it’s trying to demarcate a new way of building software, where you don’t write or read very much code.

instead, you articulate natural language descriptions, supply screenshots, load in napkin sketches, provide bug reports, and just chat with a model / agent.

“coding” doesn’t work, but don’t think “vibe coding” is it either

[Andrej Karpathy @karpathy]

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.

I have always believed that art is a driving force behind society's evolution. At @betaworks, we’ve long championed not only coders but also artists, designers, and creatives of all kinds. Our demo nights are a celebration of this synergy - a space where art, design, and code stand as equals, shaping the future together.

This Thursday, we invite you to join us for an evening of discovery and inspiration. Meet the visionary artists and engineers who are redefining what’s possible, pushing boundaries, and helping society move forward. Together, let’s explore the ideas that will shape tomorrow. We'll be welcoming some new names to the betaworks stage like @jediahkatz @DayOfLane @juanbfiguera, Octavio Figueroa and welcoming back @willrob4 @yiliu_shenburke - luma in comments!

just 5 minutes ago I tried to do a thing in AI studio and the behavior of “enter” was so annoying that i gave up

[Logan Kilpatrick @OfficialLoganK]

What should the default behavior of “Enter” be in Google AI Studio?

[bill @willrob4]
