@Foreign_buffett @MannyBernabe @Replit @databricks This is live on production. Thank you again for reporting the issue.

@MannyBernabe @Replit @databricks Hey manny, our Replit preview isn’t working right now after updates!!

Data teams are buried in requests. Not enough engineers to build everything. Denis from @databricks shared his move: point people to @Replit, tell them "just try it", and unlock access when they need it. Empower your people to self-serve, step in when they need you.

@MannyBernabe @HowardRoark90 @Foreign_buffett @Replit @databricks This is live on production. Thank you again for reporting the issue.

@MannyBernabe @HowardRoark90 @Foreign_buffett @Replit @databricks Fix will be live in ~30 mins!

@Foreign_buffett @MannyBernabe @HowardRoark90 @Replit @databricks Fix coming in ~20 mins. Thanks for reporting.

@MannyBernabe @HowardRoark90 @Replit @databricks I’m still having issues .. I can’t preview anything . @HowardRoark90 how about you?

Idea to design, really fast

phones don’t have to be just for consuming. come help us make them for creating, with a team you’ll love building with.

@mbateman @annamorgsmiley @drlauramazer Sounds amazing. Montessori and 2 Hour Learning do seem like a perfect pairing for elementary. I hope it goes great and you expand to Seattle in the future!

Announcing a new kind of Montessori program. Short version: Montessori elementary, with 2 Hour Learning (viz. Alpha) platform on the shelf as a material. Pilot this fall in Austin. Guide is the fantastic @annamorgsmiley. @drlauramazer and I leading development. Long version:

@ednevsky @Replit Fix has been deployed. I did in fact vibe-code this 😅 It shouldn’t have made it out the door. Appreciate you taking the time to share (and roast) it. We’ll do better.

Is this what vibe-coding does to a mf? 🤣 Logged into @Replit after a while - but can't generate anything because some agent checkpoints expired. Can't upgrade because apparently I still have them. Can't contact support because I'm not upgraded. This is so hilarious that I even spent the time recording and posting this. @amasad + @mattyp, you should do better.

Synthesis mentioned on Diary of a CEO podcast with @StevenBartlett. Love to hear these stories about students enjoying working with the Tutor.

Today, we're launching a series of features to help you vibe code safely

@Mackhilvanie @hazlijohar @Replit @amasad If you prefer a certain language or stack you can choose it here:

@hazlijohar @Replit @amasad Does it still force you to use Python?

I’ve spent $25 on @Replit and the app’s working so well I haven’t been stuck even once, and I’ve never had to refactor. Unlike Lovable and Bolt, where I keep spending time refactoring. What kind of magic is this, @amasad ?

guess I'm treating myself

@jacqdebeer @amasad Hey @jacqdebeer, when you gave it a url, did you choose one of these options to take a screenshot or get the text content from the url? If you do, then the agent can include that as context when building your landing page.

Replit Agent v2 design is looking 🥵

I either completely wasted a Saturday or just discovered a new hobby. I could not find a simple little program to teach my kids typing. Everything had a ton of malware or included chat rooms I didn’t want for my elementary age kids. I also wanted one that would help them with their spelling and vocabulary words. So I gave Ai a try and built my own. I have ZERO coding knowledge and basic tech skills. This was my first ai project. It took me several hours because I kept adding features and had to learn how to “talk” to the developer to get the results I wanted. I’ve worked with a software developer before and when I started talking to the system like I did our developer, it worked better. A few things I noticed: 1) user management and databases were tricky. Creating the program was easy but tracking progress, logins, teacher accounts and assignments were hard to “stick”. It wouldn’t track progress and users kept getting lost. So the “developer” had to be trained and I had to google the correct terminology to describe what I wanted. Creating the relationships with parent accounts and teacher accounts was easy once I learned to communicate better. 2) describing the UI I wanted was frustrating and I gave up. Screen shots, arrows and lots of descriptive text got us this far, which isn’t far at all. Alignment and text wrapping cannot be taken for granted. 3) you can’t assume it knows to get outside information, you have to tell it. I wanted it to create sentences to practice typing using vocabulary words and it kept creating hilariously wrong sentences that kept me and the kids laughing, to make it actually create real sentences using the vocabulary words it kept wanting me to give it the definitions and then it just described each word exactly as I wrote it. I finally had to tell it to use a dictionary api and only use sentences found in the dictionary. That worked. All in, we created a usable website (designed for desktop since it is a typing tutor). I plan on sharing it with the kids’ classes because we were all looking for something like this and we will actually use this regularly. Would love to know what you think! Feel free to use for your kids. Set up a family account, then add your kids and let them compete against each other. Link to the program below in the comments (if it looks bad on your phone it’s because it’s for desktop)

@semaphoreci , please fix it so I don't have to see this and re-authenticate every time I click a link. It may be specific to Okta sign in, but it's super painful. After completing sign in, the requested page is forgotten, make this even rougher.

Announcing Replit Agent v2, available in Early Access today! More highlights & how to get started in 🧵

I could write ui code without looking at the output and do better than the new Apple photos app.

@JimmyAustin Who need ‘vibe coding’ when you have ‘shit coding’?

@PhilMacEachron shit-posting? nah dog, i'm shit-coding.

Sure, making apps at the gym is cool, but doing it on the toilet is still the most goated.
