a good thing about vibe-coding is that it's better than doom-scrolling—at least there's creativity involved (LLMs are nowhere near "just do everything for you" when it comes to software; at least for useful, working software)
@thomasfuchs Not sure vibe-coding is necessarily better than doom-scrolling, for yourself or anyone else.
For example, it's unlikely that anyone will tell me to kill myself on Mastodon because we've moderated the servers that let their members post shit like that, and if anyone did I and the other mods would nuke their accounts.
LLMs are known to tell people to kill themselves (and others) with tragic results.

@skyfaller vibe-coding isn’t asking LLMs for being your friend or for psychological advice
now it should be noted that basically anything is better than doom-scrolling, for example watching paint dry is measurably better for you
@thomasfuchs that paint has no right to dry! it should be wet, like god intended!
