To be fair, you had the same response to Kenton Varda's post about using Claude Code to build an OAuth component for Cloudflare, to the point of calling his work just a tiny step away from "vibe coding".


I called that project one step away from vibe coding, which I stand behind -- 'tiny' is your editorializing. But his thing wasn't as summarily dunked-on, or ratio'd, or however you want to call it, as your thing was, I don't think! ;)


I don't feel like I got "ratio'd" at all? I'd say the response broke down roughly 50/50, as I expected it to. I got "dunked on" here yesterday for suggesting that userland TCP/IP stacks were a good idea; I'm not all that sensitive to "dunking".
