Ask HN: Vibe Coding over Easter?

4•datawars•6h ago

Hello HN!

So, as coding has become something we're able to do via Telegram/WhatsApp, I assume many of us are doing it 'remotely' via their phones, while celebrating Easter with the family.

How does that work for you? Are you distracted? How do you handle it? What "borders" are now needed?

Absolutely not doing any like that. Even if I would be using LLMs like that, I would still try to keep a very clear split between work and life.

Who said anything about work?

I've been coding every easter since 96 and I don't plan to stop now! I balance family time and coding, as usual.

It's weird how the vibe coding bros are always talking about all the features they seemly built over weekends, nights and holidays.

Is this supposed to play into the whole FOMO of hussle culture?

Although I guess with the new Claude rate limits, off peak is the only time you can actually use it now.

I think you hit the nail on the head. This is a new VibeCodeBro culture where people are putting out a lot of media content about "building is easier than ever now and its a gold rush", "you can have the agents work for you while you're anywhere", etc. And they will make a lot of money from social media ads or pimping their courses or idea lists, etc. Its very similar vibe you saw with drop-shipping, and other "passive" income content, granted the VibeCodeBros aren't claiming its passive but the vibe online from content creators is very similar.

Most of the AI output I get is mediocre and needs human reviews, UI touch-ups, refactors, etc. There could be a strong case for AI slop cleanup businesses soon.

I'm doing some quick programming and studying today from my laptop before lunch. I'd be interested too to know if anyone here has found a good and cost-efficient setup to vibe code from devices with small screens (eg. smartphones, tablets).

Not vibing today to observe the Sabbath (especially on Easter; He has Risen!) but my setup for on the go is normally just the Claude app on iOS with robust GitHub CI for testing and then just iterate.
