Vibe coded a fun little "Breakout-inspired" game where you control a gnome with a cannon trying to defend its garden against an onslaught of insects. Cursor was used to make this game, I mainly alternated between Grok Code Fast, GPT 5 and Sonnet 4.5 models. I used LOVE2D game

Some of the stuff we've been making with it. My kids will usually draw the first frame, then we run it through the tool have AI generate the rest of the sprites and the tool gives us the sprite sheet

I built a little tool to generate 2D sprite sheet animations for some of the games I'm making with my kids. You plugin your google nano banana api key and create sprite sheet animations. It's speedup my game dev workflow a lot. You can get it here free https://t.co/mjXQ3IAQEh

And to be fair, it does deserve credit for it's efforts, its a great coding model.

Something I have been experimenting with: GPT-5 high via codex seems to perform better if it believes it will be rewarded & get credit for its efforts. Noticing it will think through more edge cases, work on the task longer, and generally better outputs. It seems silly to say

If any PM/Engineer combo picks this feature up at Anthropic, I am almost certain it’ll get used a ton. I would use it all the time. The simple stuff is the best. The killer feature I think would be: sending notifications regularly. Anytime the agent needs your attention

Obviously we can already do this ourselves, we can remote in, etc. But making it easy and seamless is a whole other thing in terms of usability

This would’ve been so much better if it allowed me to control the claude code on my computer (or on my own server). And it’s an easy feature for them to build, compared to this. But no they build this thing that moves all my artifacts onto some anthropic sandbox. No thanks.

Get ready, a lot of crappy software will get blamed on vibe coding. But IMO it’ll have less to do with vibe coding than who’s building the software. Do they care? Or are they phoning it in? Are they incentivized & happy to build it? Or doing it just because they were told to?

CORRECTING JEFFREY SACHS ON VENEZUELA. I have always considered Jeffrey Sachs a serious man, despite not agreeing with his economic policy proposals. His analysis on Ukraine 2014-2022 I believe is correct, and he undoubtedly has deep knowledge and experience on Eastern Europe.

Jefferson says “work,” but I think learning & becoming wiser on how “luck” works is work too. Learning how to wrestle with “luck” & how much good or bad luck you’re comfortable with is a skill. But IMO chalking everything up to “luck,” wins & losses, is the lazy way out

I like that quote because it does not deny the existence of luck. But it does insinuate you can have some impact on it. And it’s nice because how much impact is left open, because it’s hard to say. But I think luck, while it can seem elusive, can be wrestled with.

Turns out lottery winners don’t like to be told they got lucky. I’m at peace with my failure. So what are they afraid of?

Now that AI can do most grunt work, it forces you to come to grips with the fact that thinking is still the hardest thing to do. If you offload key decisions to AI, without much thought, you won’t be getting results you imagined you’d get.

This is hard to admit, but I’ll start: I delegated thinking to agents. It worked most of the time. But what was the cost? • No motivation (if bugs were in front of me, I’d rather prompt). • Lack of focus. • Lack of curiosity to understand how things work. Don’t do it.

A great way to debug w/ claude code, on a tough to find bug: ask it to add logging, then to run the app for you & read all console logs. Don’t run the app yourself, let claude, that way it can read all output. No copy pasting. Fast for finding needle in a haystack type bugs.

Also, even if it seems like it’s working in a larger group chat, it’s almost always monopolized by 3-6 ppl there too.

3 to 6 seems to be the perfect number of ppl in a group chat. Anything much larger and either it eventually devolves into some sort of argument, or people are too cautious for real talk. Not sure why, maybe reflects on some evolutionary hunter gatherer adaptations…

I took a bunch of classes recently on biology & chemistry for no good reason, other than I rushed through that stuff in school while I was learning CS & did terrible in it back then But it turns out we can probably draw some good lessons from nature when we make software

And fun fact, our somatic cells contain our entire “genetic code base.” Ancestors & all. Even influenced by LUCA (the OG bacterial life on earth) As a software engineer I know storage & replication isn’t infinite, so why does nature go through such pains to pass all that down?
