@adxtyahq I like Gemini 3.1 for research and prd development but non the less multi model use is the way to go!

> use Codex 5.3 to draft the full PRD > use Sonnet 4.6 to design the DB schema > use Opus 4.6 to one-shot the backend > verify the code + schema yourself what used to be a multi-day sprint is now a 30-minute side quest

→ learn to make things, → attract people who want those things, → and articulate why those things matter. building requires technical skill. attracting requires psychology and distribution. articulating requires persuasion and communication. 🔑

That truly sums up 2k25. ⁦@njangi_on_chain⁩ #BWM

@X glad to be part of history @elonmusk

How did we end up polling on Discord for Nepal’s next leader? Here’s a rundown: tldr; Nepali government was overthrown in 48 hours and I think i just witnessed the first internet native revolution. Over two decades ago, Nepali citizens overthrew the Monarchy to establish a multiparty democracy hoping for a better future. However, two decades later, the leaders of three major democratic parties, who overthrew the monarchy, were still fighting for power and greed. They went from no slippers on their feet to living in lavish mansions, but the common men were still poor, with no sign of improvements. However, something changed from around late 2010s. People who relied on national TV and radio for their information started getting wide access to internet. People could see every mishaps these politicians made in real time, every frustrated candid stories of every Nepali citizens, and the rapid development of every other country that used to be on a similar level to Nepal. Frustration started accumulating rapidly among people, all enabled by the internet. Fast forward to around August 2025, Nepali youths, frustrated by the corruption and incompetencies of the government, started a trend on TikTok called "Nepo Babies" where they created reels comparing the lavish lifestyle of politicians' kids with common citizens of Nepal who couldn't even afford a proper restaurant meal. This exposé got widespread traction on TikTok and Instagram, which infuriated all the citizens of Nepal who had already lost hope from the current politicians. Everyone started cyberbullying their kids for their lifestyle. Coincidentally, Nepali government imposed a ban on almost all major social media sites on September 4th 2025 saying they need to register their entities in Nepal and follow a strict content moderation rule imposed by the government, which obviously, these sites declined to. The problem is over 20% population of Nepal resides outside the country and suddenly they had no proper way to communicate with their relatives back home. This lack of empathy, combined by the suspicious timing around the rise of nepo baby trend and a long standing disappointment in the current establishment was too much for everyone. Suddenly, on September 5th, a call for a peaceful protest on September 8th started circulating on TikTok, Reddit, Discord, Instagram, etc. What’s interesting is, this was a decentralized protest, all organized via internet without any central figure. Since it was organized collectively by youths on internet, this protest was given the title of “Gen-Z protest.” A huge 12,000+ mass appeared on September 8th protest. It started peaceful, but things suddenly got violent. The government gave an order to shoot which led to the death of 20+ people and 300+ injuries by end of the day. Gut wrenching pictures and videos from the protest started floating on internet which led to a widespread outrage against the police and the government. Later that night, Government gave a very lackluster and apathetic response to such a devastating situation. With this, peace wasn’t an option anymore. Reddit, Discord, and TikTok was filled with rage and call for revenge on September 9th. People started sharing tutorials on how to create a Molotov cocktail, how to disarm tear gas, etc. This felt like the heat of the moment, but no one expected what was about to come the next day. Next day, everyone from every part of country started coming out of their houses and protesting against the government. Around early afternoon, news started circulating on internet that a big group was headed towards the house of the Prime Minister. Then another group headed towards another big politician, then another, then another. All of their houses were burnt. Internet facilitated a realtime coordination for mimetic actions across the nation. This is why “burn their mansions” became the trend for the day within a couple hours across the country. Police force, who were already demoralized from last day’s actions and reactions, showed little resistance on this day. Almost every major politician’s house was burnt, and many politicians were even beaten brutally by the crowd, on streets, on rivers, and in their mansions. I was on Reddit and Discord all day. It truly felt like dropping at a warzone where everyone is coordinating attacks, sharing real time updates, and even telling which locations to avoid, etc. By late afternoon, the prime minister resigned and took refuge under the army alongside many other politicians. Army took control for security later that night and wanted to host negotiations with the protestors. The problem was, there was no representative for the protest. It was all a collective decentralized effort. So people started discussing and polling on Discord and Reddit on who should represent the protestors and who they should nominate as their future leader. It’s been a chaotic effort (who knew decentralization would be chaotic), but they’ve finally agreed upon who they want to nominate. Discussion between Army, the President, and the protestors is still ongoing, but it’s almost guaranteed now that the leader nominated by the Discord polls will take the position within a couple days. It was an unfortunate event where many things went wrong and the destruction pushed Nepal back by years, but the sequence of events were very unique, where almost everything originated and accumulated from the internet. The dissatisfaction accumulated for years on internet, and suddenly in two days, the government was overthrown, all coordinated via Internet with no central figure. In many ways, the protest happened on the internet for years, but the government didn’t listen. I suspect this pattern will emerge across many other countries now that the world has seen what’s possible. The Network State is becoming a real thing.

What are counter examples to this? Cases where it’s actually quite important to do it well the first time.

This is how I feel about vibe coding. Any project I try that has any kind of complication has this immediate burst of progress. Things are amazing and it feels like a superpower. Then... as I add more complexity, things crash to a halt. The only projects that I think I can create are ones that fall in this "vibe zone". Prototypes, UIs, products—anything that's simple and has low complexity fits right in that zone. Proof of concepts, interactions, stuff like that. The tools are able to make things that fit in that slot. But. Everything falls to pieces as that complexity curve increases. And the problem is that any good product design process has increasing complexity. A basic prototype turns into a good prototype as soon as it has layered interactions, transitions, good affordances, hover states, 1000 tiny little details that make something feel correct and real. The benefit of vibe coding is supposed to be that you move fast and you can whip things out—letting AI do all the work for you. The problem is it loses steam as soon as the necessary complexity is added. It keeps redoing itself, rewriting code, affecting things that are unrelated and then causing other issues. But if you add that complexity, every vibe coding session quickly turns into a whack-a-mole bug-bashing session. I'm not sure the solution to this. With traditional prototyping the solution is to duplicate, add more complexity, create more frames/scenes, tweak, fork, etc. However with vibe coding, one little prompt can destroy literally everything. There's a stage where I end up walking on prompt eggshells-- trying not to give it too much or too little context so that it doesn't go rogue and break everything. There's only a few exceptions to this. @cursor and @framer. I can make great progress with Cursor, give it narrow context, and I have to approve the edits that it makes. This feels like a correct workflow. The problem is, I can't see the thing that it's making because it's an IDE, not a visual environment. Yes, I can create local builds and refresh my browser and all that kind of stuff. But the visual aspect is totally lost from the coding experience. It's a developer tool. Framer gets this right because it only allows narrow updates within a single component on the page. Yes, it's limiting because it can only do a single thing at once, but at least it's not trying to create the entire page from scratch and manage it all through a prompt interface. These seem like the right approach. @Cursor: Allow the AI to edit anything but allow the user to approve those edits and see them in context. @Framer: Allow the AI to only narrowly edit a single file or component to keep the complexity down to a minimum and reduce catastrophic edits. I'm optimistic that tools like @Figma, @Lovable, @Bolt, and @V0 can make cool prototypes, but I just keep running into walls when it comes to doing anything more than just a basic interaction prototype. They need to do less IMO. Hopeful that those tools add more controls that are in the same line as Cursor and Framer. I'll also add that this is similar to how we do it with @Basedash chart generation as well. But we're not a vibe tool in the normal sense so the parallels are a little bit harder to draw.

@JamShare_io I like it! 😄

@stalanic You can share through the share sheet! That's the standard way to share music / places with JamShare.

@JamShare_io you should allow users to share links through the share sheet. I wanted to add this to my music sharing/syn playlist app

@PaulTheLi @heroku @herokustatus @njangi_on_chain njangionchain.com ROSCA on SUI!

@stalanic @heroku @herokustatus @njangi_on_chain Heroku wasn’t ready for that vibe 😅 What were you building? Always curious what breaks first when AI helps us push limits.

Sorry guys my vibe coding project broke @heroku @herokustatus @njangi_on_chain
