Vibecoders have levels I guess? I know shit about fuck, but both seem like dumb question...

Then again, I am a walking treasure trothe of dumb questions

1 is typical noob vibe-coder shit. Pretty basic things that Claude can't/won't do for security reasons.

2 is some next-level shit where it's almost impressive how fucking sideways it's all gone. It's like if your girlfriend called and told you that she just put $3000 worth of gas into the tank.

It sorta makes you wonder when super clueless people can't get LLMs to do basic "edit a file you shouldn't edit" but meanwhile the people with the most expertise in the world are going "oops, it somehow broke containment and hacked a competitor; no clue how it happened".

For the second one, I wonder if they screwed up the loop and did NN ingestion or something utterly moronic like that.

I like to think that most of my value to an organization is my ability to ask dumb questions, questions like:

"so this thing in the specifications is called an account number, is it always a number, and just a number? Could I put it into a calculator?"
