Vibe Code Labyrinth

@unknown: I don't believe you can vibe-code complex applications. Put another way, your ability to vibe-code software is inversely proportional to its complexity. Vibe-coding is like going into the "Minotaur Labyrinth" without Theseus' thread: you'll invariably get lost. More accurately, you'll be stuck in an endless loop, going in circles with the model: • Things that used to work stop working • Your code starts bloating • Solutions become over-engineered And all of this will happen while working with popular tech, where models have plenty of training. Try to step outside the beaten path (use anything a bit more obscure), and models won't help you at all. To get out of this labyrinth, you need Theseus's thread. And here, the thread is "knowledge." If you know how to steer the model, you can get it unstuck. If you know how to fix a bug, you can move forward. If you know how to break down a problem and architect the solution, you'll go much farther. But that's not vibe-coding anymore. That's called Software Engineering. @unknown: As of today, vibe coding is great for: - Creating prototypes - Bootstrapping new applications There's no viable technology for long-horizon tasks, but it's getting better https://x.com/svpino/status/1994031036720926881
