‘Seven legged turbo spider’ just seemed pretentious.

I thought the whole “clippy just wanted to help” meme was sarcastic since clippy’s nagging was just as intrusive as the current AI being forced into everything, but it seems it is not.

Letting Clippy Jr write your code.

They knew the two lines that I quoted would clue in most people who dislike vibe coding that it was a joke.

AmidFuror’s description is on point and I see it as a variant of Poe’s Law. Instead of sarcasm being mistaken for a real belief, it is presenting a fictional account of someone being self aware that is mistaken for someone actually becoming self aware.

There are two lines that make me absolutely certain it is written by someone who it not a vibe coder and is leaning into the sarcasm.

• ‘pulling out my wallet for someone that knows what they are doing’ implies the poster knows they don’t know what they are doing
• ‘vibe coding is just roleplaying for guys who want to feel like hackers’ is a joke I’ve seen directed at vibe coders more than once

Keep in mind that not all deception is malicious, but most people see the word deception as having a negative implication. An actor/actress pretending to be someone else is technically deceptive the same way as whoever wrote this hilarious post. They are presenting a fictional account for an audience.

No, the phrasing makes it clear someone wrote a fictional account of becoming self aware that the output of vibe coding isn’t maintainable as it scales.

Silly predators don’t know to hold the platypus up by the end of the tail!

It says valid but obsolete, which sounds like a contradiction to me.

This is technically valid but considered obsolete. RFC 822 allowed domains without dots, but RFC 2822 made this obsolete.

Do email suffix not indicate a different domain like .org and .com for websites?
