Keeping content like this on a short “leash”, without letting it cross the line, across 700+ cities and counties turned out to be a bit problematic. So, for now, you can check out a more restrained and data-driven version of the descriptions using the link above.

...and “the ultimate California contradiction: a place so gorgeous it almost makes you forget you're one medical emergency away from financial ruin” was both “fun” and “not really fun”, since it may not be that far from reality for many people.

Vibe-coded CaliVibe for fun — an interactive map to explore California counties and cities through population, crime stats, temperature patterns, 3D terrain views, etc. ~98% of the code was written by @claudeai with a few sprinkles from @GeminiApp trekhleb.dev/cali-vibe/

The “98% of JS code generated by AI” metric doesn’t mean the project was low effort. It means that 100% of the code was written in English by a human (not 2%)

@nolikenet Do I understand correctly that the suggested frameworks assumes: “good” - is whatever helps a person “to survive”?

@trekhleb no, if we hard consider "good" as objective thing to start with. I propose not to go this way at the start, but try to come to the conclusion if "good" can be objective. Example: "kill human" - bad. "kill occupier" - good. Seems like it's a state related to the entity

@trekhleb "These ultimate concepts are established neither by human beings nor by a majority, and nor by surrounding culture" What if we define good as something which helps you and your family / community survive. And we define bad as everything which is opposite.
