Replying to Avatar Sat Nakamoto

People used to ask me what is your favorite programming language. My response ended up being “simply English” and that’s the vibe coding model going for. I am not sure if I see it as a frozen pizza, or some inferior thing. I might see it as a superior 3d printed pizza, a holy grail.

Computers don't actually understand English, tho.

THEY'RE CALCULATORS, SIR.

You’re pointing to calculators and calling them calculators, there’s absolute truth in that. But to say that “they can only be calculators” and they shall stay in that way, that is an entirely different statement.

They're called "computers" because they compute. They are adding machines. They just add very very fast, now.

Good grief.
