👀 hold on, switching apps.
I will read this thing.
“I think I overdid it,” I whisper into the prompt window. Bloodshot eyes, cigarette in hand, seriously contemplating making the drive to the gas station to get a bottle of vodka. “You’re absolutely right,” Claude responds."
🤌
i'll read the thing
I can’t wait to read, I love your writings they’ve changed my life for the best. Please write more btc and related things
I like the name, Boris. It reminds me of the butler my family never had, who would've filled in for a slacky father by reading to little me... had I grown up in such a life.

"Vibe-coding might remove you from writing code, but it doesn’t remove you from the subject matter. You still have to understand how stuff works, more or less, if you want to efficiently guide how the project should evolve. ..... If your project or product manager has no idea how the underlying tech works, there is little chance of the thing flourishing." 🎯

everyone else read it in the Gigi voice ?
Shout-out to nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft for highlighter, nostr:npub1ye5ptcxfyyxl5vjvdjar2ua3f0hynkjzpx552mu5snj3qmx5pzjscpknpr for applesauce, and nostr:npub1zxu639qym0esxnn7rzrt48wycmfhdu3e5yvzwx7ja3t84zyc2r8qz8cx2y for the screenshot thing.
I like how your thing still sounds like you. I'm contemplating the possibility that you wrote it.
I don't mind if people using LLMs collaboratively.
I can't stand people palming off ai slop as their own without even checking it. It's a waste of peoples time.
You're absolutely right of course.

Very good. Excellent article.
lol
I can totally empathize with that.
Gigi will rather walk on the beach and shout into his phone trying to vibecode instead of going to therapy
No lies detected lmao
Joke aside: this is the future of coding! you are already more or less living it.
i am an vibecoder and office fiat slave as well and i do not want to spend the rest of my days prompting/typing into my laptop.
it is super unhealthy to do this and I agree 100% with trying to vibewalkcode.
I gotta find a way to do this too.
Check out Wingman by nostr:npub1jss47s4fvv6usl7tn6yp5zamv2u60923ncgfea0e6thkza5p7c3q0afmzy - not sure if there's a tutorial, but once you're set up you can vibe from mobile.
I just realized how much I missed reading @Gigi's words, after reading his latest imperfect essay about vibing something imperfect. Thanks for providing so much value 🍻
One of the better reads I’ve found on nostr. Extremely relatable and insightful for a new vibe coder like me after building https://nostrjournal.com/. Empowering physical makers to translate their creative process into digital projects.
nostr:npub1dergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsh9xzpc wrote a thing
you can read it with nostr:npub19802see0gnk3vjlus0dnmfdagusqrtmsxpl5yfmkwn9uvnfnqylqduhr0x and make highlights
Seriously, you should write more. I enjoy reading your pieces and get so much out of it. Thanks.
He wrote a thing guys HE WROTE A THING
Thanks for building this. Been waiting for the perfect reader + highlighter for my e-ink device.
Some early feedback:
It’s not obvious how you add bookmarks (after you connect your bunker). A plus button somewhere with an input to paste a url would be great. Bonus if you can also provide a bookmarklet.
Would be great to also be able to add RSS feeds (arguably this could also be a separate RSS to Nostr service).
Also css issue:
Oh shit, he wrote a thing. That means I must read a thing.
Who cares
Great writing, thoroughly enjoyed it.
Offline mode is a great idea. #amethyst has all notes cashed already. Would be nice to read everything in peace.. And comment and react.
Then when online again it would all be pushed to relay(s).
But letting Claude push to origin... Forced!? That's a bit too saucy 😂😂
