Inaccurate. That house has decent structural integrity despite being a cruel joke made by the architect, vibe code could never

    Hmm, I dunno if that's a fair comparison. That house might be structurally sound and just look weird.

    Does it stay up? Yes.

    Can you sleep in it? Technically

    Does it have running electricity and water? (Optional anyway)

    Another big win for vibe coders. Pack it up, we're taking the W home.

  • Groverhaus is a vibe coder built house. Load bearing drywall.

    If this house took 2 days to build and costs 5k, I'll take it.

    Talking to my structural engineer friend about the way we build software makes him sad every time. And I'm not even talking about vibe coding. Yet.

    You absolutely can regex (some) html if you sanitize and maybe convert it beforehand.

    Btw, why are parsers always built to support the whole thing and maybe throw an error on or just consume unsupported shenanigans? That's how you get security vulnerabilities in picture formats. Instead of just picking the things you support and ignoring the rest.

    You always have to balance: Do you want the user to have "some" user experience, or none at all.

    In the case of image viewers or browsers or stuff, it's most often better to show the user something, even if it isn't perfect, than to show nothing at all. Especially if it's an user who can't do anything to fix the broken thing at all.

    That said, if the user is a developer who is currently developing the solution, then the parser should be as strict as possible, because the developer can fix stuff before it goes into production.

  • This looks like a real house and I'm pretty sure it's not built by a vibe coder so I call shenanigans.

    That house looks like it's begging to be mercy killed.

    I'm sure the owner's laptop has Windows on it, too.

    I'll see myself out....

    It's like Winchester House, but with windows...

    I kinda like escher’s work…. And this is giving off those vibes…

    Escher used a lot of repeating patterns. This is more like a Picasso.

    That house is in the "so bad, it's good" category. Vibe coders can only aspire to such things.

  • That's $400k worth of house and $500k worth of windows. Lotta big custom glass in there.

    That is an accurate representation of my projects. I'm not a vibe coder 😭

    So much about vibe coding and yet I have not seen any (working) application or project made by utilizing it.

    Well, I wonder why...

    Because we are too busy winning! I'm a mech e not a programmer. I've built several incredibly useful things: gui production database viewer analyzer, data processing programs, an advanced machine controller, and many others. Could have never done this stuff on my own and would have pissed off a programmer if I they were the ones doing it and product wouldn't be as intuitive. AI doesn't complain if it has to rebuild the whole thing because I change my mind. It's faster than anything at getting me the results I want.

    Reminds me of the time when AI image generation was new, and someone generated a bunch of screwed up road intersections with stuff like circular crosswalks and whatnot. Everyone was like "humans can't fix the traffic, but don't worry, computers can't fix it either." ...I think about it a lot.

    That looks like the Hundertwasserhaus’s evil twin
