I’m Normie. Do Normies Do Vibe Code?

What my mother he does not have healthy legs, he supports the registration of Claude Pro. After asking him repeatedly over the past few years about the impact of AI on the environment, politics, and economy, I dropped everything on a recent Sunday and went to his house. After we chatted for a while, I opened his computer and started sending out vibes.

I want to create a sharing program that collects and shares information about the time and energy we spend fighting administrative burdens, government mudslides, Kafka-esque unenrollment windows, byzantine insurance clinics, malpractice lawsuits, denials, confusing member plans, etc.

As clear and detailed as possible, I went on to describe a dashboard that would record the size and volume of all our sludge. Users can log stressful events in their lives, and enter how much time they spent, how annoying they were, and what they would have liked to have done. Each donation can be rewarded with an inspirational quote and a picture of a kitten, puppy, or chimp. I would teach Claude to create a “comprehensive case” – a paragraph explaining how the frustrations relate to the mud’s behavior – and a letter of complaint to the governing body.

Claude ate. Not for the first time, I’m afraid my vibes might just show the wrong page. I remembered, vaguely, some of the advice I’d seen in the Reddit forums: “I should learn how computers and code work first.” “I want to pass in harvards CS50.” “Instead of learning AWS or servers, use something like Kuberns.” I began to worry that vibe coding was a kind of stone soup: Sure, anyone can do it, first you need to understand the Harvard-level of twelve programming languages ​​and cloud platforms.

This complaint took about three Kuberns of a second. Claude stopped thinking and began to investigate what he instinctively admitted was a very surprising fact: “This idea is very interesting, it is really useful, it has a clear purpose and a sense of humor about a problem.

A few clarifying questions later, I look at the actual form. The “Incident Log” and “Dashboard” tabs still didn’t work, we weren’t ready for the logs to be stored anywhere, and I still had to train Claude a lot. But the beginnings of an online program appeared.
