Vibe coding is awesome for ideation and POCs! Vibe coding == Figma++ And 90% of production coding should be generated by AI for new projects and products. Engineering is being reshaped, but it is still engineering. #AICoding #ProductionCoding #VibeCoding

@OfficialLoganK Actually, with Dev Spec-driven AI coding, most of the review gets folded in earlier on. When you prompt and forget, then yes, this accumulates the review at the end. I wish more production coders would do some sort of spec-driven development.

The bottleneck has so quickly moved from code generation to code review that it is actually a bit jarring. None of the current systems / norms are setup for this world yet.

@cramforce Yes, vibe coding is an awesome tool for rapid prototyping and quickly exploring ideas, but the output is throw-away code. The challenge is that the highly polished UI in those scenarios gives a false sense of completeness.

These challenges are very real. Like, very real! But the answer isn't to wait for the tools to get better, because the problem isn't the tool, it is how we work. This is not everything, but one aspect is that you gotta be absolutely ruthless about throwing away stuff. Sunk cost fallacy was always bad. But now it got 10x worse with brains that trigger "wow, that demo is so far along, we might as well ship it" where they should trigger "This was 30 minutes of work. That investment should play absolutely zero role in the decision whether to proceed"

im fully convinced that LLMs are not an actual net productivity boost (today) they remove the barrier to get started, but they create increasingly complex software which does not appear to be maintainable so far, in my situations, they appear to slow down long term velocity

Vibe coding is the ultimate disposable medium for thought. 🌊 But don't mistake "polish" for production. To ship, you must flip the switch from Vibe Checker to Lead Architect. 🏗️ My breakdown on moving from Vibe to Production: bandarra.me/posts/vibe-to-…

WebMCPはブラウザの実装するウェブサイト向けのAPIです。 JavaScriptまたはHTMLタグの属性を使って挙動を定義することができます。エージェントはプロンプトによってWebMCPを呼び出し、その定義された処理を実行することができます。 WebMCPとMCPの使い分け: developer.chrome.com/blog/webmcp-mc…

@ade_oshineye @i_am_kaspa and I were just discussing this week how to manage skills. For libraries, it makes sense to attach skills to versions (which can include migration instructions). Things get more complicated for best practices or skills that cut across multiple libraries, for instance.

@UKCraigP Do I need to sign-in to see the tools? Tried on the home page and under browse events and the tools didn't show up for me.

Thread 🧵1/3: Why WebMCP matters for event platforms Before: agents had to screenshot + OCR + guess CSS selectors (slow, brittle, high token cost) Now: agents call structured JSON tools directly — 89% fewer tokens, 100% reliable. We’re the first to ship it live.

@pikuma I'm fine with finding the right door and driving on the left side of the road. What I could never handle is shifting gears with my left hand. I've been driving automatic cars since moving to the UK.

It's been decades since I first arrived in the UK... and still, almost every day, I walk to the left of my car, open the door, look in disbelief that there's no driving wheel there, and grunt under my breath. I'm also positive by now that my wife will never stop asking, "Again?"

Since 85-90% of the population is right handed, driving on the left with the steering wheel on the right makes most sense, since you are steering with your dominant hand. I will die on this hill.

Updated my Prompt API demo! 🚀 Now using WebMCP to expose on-page agents to broader browser agents. This lets a general agent recruit the page as a domain-expert "sub-agent" for hyper-accurate tasks. Links in replies! 👇 #WebMCP #BuiltInAI
