@jwildeboer Nice to see you did it!

Loving my iPod 4th gen (the monochrome display) too. Dead easy to open up, can actually pry it open with just my fingernails :D

Flashmodded it to 256GB recently (over the stock 20GB HDD). For the next mod I'm looking for a battery size upgrade with the newly gained space.

vibe coding decided to give vibe coding a shot, just so i know what i'm dealing with. i mean the proper deal: chatgpt codex, integrated in the editor, giving it access to edit files. just to see what happened

It did reach first results very quickly, satisfyingly so. Then i started iterating on the project, which kept getting slower and slower. Even caught myself getting in an argument with the computer. Then my codex credits ran out

While I did review all the patches it made, I still have no idea how the fuck this project works. All the productivity gains I got from having the autocomplete robot build my software I've now lost in trying to decipher what the hell is going on.

It's like university projects all over again

@algernon reminds me of an article I read about "how to make Claude a better programmer than you" and the gist was to do that you just had to be a better programmer than Claude
