    he’d “vibe coded a bad but improvable game” over two days, although he only “actively” worked on it for about three hours.

    I made a bad but improvable game in 2 hours on my phone on a train

    Trijam exists and the games are surprisingly good

    Making a bad but improvable game in 2 days doesnt mean anything

    he believes so strongly in the cause that he’s willing to “take the hit” for saying so.

    He has since deleted his X account.

      He has since deleted his X account. A source at Xbox tells PC Gamer that Stirrup opted to deactivate the account because of the volume of replies he was receiving.

      Not everybody. Trash people should stay on X, good people should avoid it and use alternatives.

        It’s a nazi recruiting platform ran by a white supremacist, it shouldn’t exist for them to organize under. Anyone using it still generates revenue for Musk and advertisers on there.

          If they stop using X, they will infiltrate all our social media. I don’t want this to happen.

    Stirrup kicked off his thread on October 18 with a simple message saying he’d “vibe coded a bad but improvable game” over two days, although he only “actively” worked on it for about three hours. “I’m telling you I tried it and it’s true…anyone can build a game.”

    Guy who got an LLM to vibe code him something once that compiles extrapolates this to “why do we hire all these expensive people to do this?”

      Imagine this guy pulled out a pencil and paper and drew a stick figure family and then posted online “I did this in just 3 hours. It’s bad but improvable. I’m telling you I tried it and it’s true…anyone can draw.”

    That’s why you don’t let the business guys anywhere near the public, they will expose how evil your company is.

    Also, talk about a meaningful name, Stirrup causing a stir online

      I dunno’, I’d kinda’ argue that’s a good reason not to let them near your company, but apparently not being evil is the minority opinion these days.

        The moment companies opt for money at all costs, they become evil and inevitably fill themselves with people like him.

          Companies are not separate entities with their own wills.

          Who hires those evil people? It’s not the building. It’s not the business registration with the government. It’s someone like him.

            Businesses also make those people. Once they align your incentives toward making the company the most profit, you will gradually become an out-of-touch weirdo that fetishizes productivity and thinks empathy is weakness.

              Again, who sets those expectations and hammers them into employees?

              It’s not “businesses”. It’s business people. It’s MBAs. It’s c-suits. Stop making it sound like some machine with no face. Whether you mean to or not, that makes it harder for some to actually see the problem.

          This. Every single company which has done an IPO and sold shares has sold any chance they had of being respectable. Without exception. They might remain profitable, in the short term, but they have permanently rescinded all possibility of respect or virtue, and in most cases already signed the death certificate for their company. It is impossible for a publicly traded company to do the right thing. It is sometimes possible for a private company to do the right thing, and that is only possible because of the lack of fiduciary duty to shareholders. Once you have shareholders calling your shots, you’ve sold yourself to the worst kind of devil and you’re legally required to maximize the return on those shareholders investments, meaning that honest and virtuous business dealings are immediately out the window permanently. “Money now at all costs, NOW NOW NOW” becomes the sole focus of the business and every single other consideration is banished in favor of it.

          Many businesses don’t actually survive this. I wish it killed more of them.

    Lol of course a business manager with AI thinks he can do the work of a development team. If I worked with him I’d send all his tickets back closed saying he can have his AI do it, if it’s so easy.

    Everyone should embrace the LLMobotomy, the Hitachi vibe of an ice pick against the frontal cortex is the best way to traverse the blood brain barrier.
