if the thing does one thing, never needs to change or add features and never needs a security update - then sure. but once you have users and requests and edge cases and security fixes, the quality becomes really important really fast. and it's not something you can easily catch up on.

it's called "tech **debt**" for a reason
assuming this isn't going to majorly improve in the next few years is a fallacy
remember where it started and where we are now
nobody is disputing that, **one day** it will be good.
But we're 10 years into the "self driving cars will replace driving in 1 or 2 years" claim
or for a more direct comparison that the primeagen likes to give, we're already 24 months into 6 months away from ai stealing your jobs
well.. have you been in a Waymo..?
I haven't, but the claim was that human driving would be obsolete, in 1 or 2 years, 10 years ago; this has not happened.
yes, advances in self driving cars have been made, and it's amazing to see how much progress we have made.
and in all honesty there's probably no company I would turst less than google with my **actual life**, haha
oh yea, no disagreement there at all. one day my previous note will be entirely obsoleted.
but there's kind of an escape velocity thing here - like the human longevity space. will today's vibe-coded app survive long enough in the short term to live forever?
