    I really don't know what to feel about AI generated code. It's clear that it improves velocity dramatically in code output. It has some value to it. But what is the cost?

    While I code without the help of AI, sometimes I feel like I am being left behind.

    Ohh you wrote only 400 lines today? I shipped a whole app while being in the gym... hits hard.

      You’re missing out on people getting better at working with ai to improve better long term goals, like testing suites and guardrails, velocity is inconsistent in my experience.

      And vibe coding apps in the gym, is like playing a game by typing a cheat code, honestly it’s not satisfying
