hehe… you TOO can become a partner! We’re having a special! Anyone willing to pay for partnership access coincidentally gets an unrelated trove of personal data!

4·1 month agoNah, just sort by date instead of topology, or vice versa.
I’ve come to the hard truth that a good keyboard costs a minimum of $350 (or equivalent in invested time/work), and worse still… they are “consumables”, in that they don’t really last that long.
I think the skeleton needs a top-hat before we can caption this.
I’m not sure why, but this comes across to me as “defensive”.

7·2 months agoFor some reason, that doesn’t look like a GPT-generated graph, which means… sadly… that someone had to make that thing… and somebody had to approve it.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Slot Machines vs. Vibe CodingEnglish
1·2 months agoWell, I do have MBSE on the brain, but the idea here is more like a low-code/no-code environment with an ABSOLUTELY ENORMOUS “pit of success”… so large that even GenAI can reliably fall into it. Numbered tabs, you go left to right answering questions and fiddling with with prompts, paint-by-numbers for working software.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Slot Machines vs. Vibe CodingEnglish
1·2 months agoI imagine that it is theoretically possible to successfully vibe-code, but probably not with a conventional project layout nor would it look much like traditional programming. Something like your interaction primarily being a “requirements list”, which gets translated into interfaces and heavy requirements tests against those interfaces, and each implementation file being disposable (regenerated) & super-self-contained, and only being able to “save” (or commit) implementations that pass the tests.
…and if you are building a webapp, it would not be able to touch the API layer except through operational transforms (which trigger new [major] version numbers]. Sorta like MCP.
Said another way, if we could make it more like a “ratchet” incrementing, and less like an out-of-control aircraft… then maybe?!?

2·2 months agoI’ve considered problems similar to this.
IIRC, what I landed on was (1) if I could only use a d-pad, I’d try pushing the characters deeper into a maze-like tree structure (three d-pad presses [even reserving the direction you came from] easily gives you 36 possibilities: a-z + 0-9… more if you have push best-guess into the closer intersections), and (2) if I had an analog device (like the joystick in your example) I’d go with something like dasher… but I’m sure you could get dasher to work with a d-pad too, but it would be sub-optimal, methinks.
