Future Portrait Of A Billionaire's House...
Ozymandias, only an inscription and the views remain...
(From our snowy and icy morning walk yesterday... Hohenfreyberg, built & expanded between 1418-1608, burnt down (sacrificed) in 1646. Same fate for the other ruin on the neighboring hill (last image), which belonged to the father and also got destroyed previously (in 1525) by farmers of the surrounding villages...)

Chances are, you’ve seen Richard Tsong-Taatarii’s photo.
Taken Wednesday in Minneapolis,
it shows an unidentifiable protester face down on the ground;
two Border Patrol agents are on top of him,
holding him there,
while a third unloads pepper spray into his face from just inches away.
The photo ran on the front page of The Minnesota Star Tribune on Friday
and already feels like a defining image of the long ICE incursion in Minneapolis

I don't envy "vibe coders". I mean, let's for a minute assume that their vision is not a pipe dream, but an accurate prediction of the future.
For a start, what's their plan for life? Driving a tool whose primary selling point is that anyone can use it. And I'm not even talking about all the inside competition. I'm talking of people realizing that they can cut the middleperson and do the coding themselves.
The way I see it, vibe coders are a bit like typists (with no offense to typists). Their profession is a product of a novelty. And just like typists largely disappeared when typewriters and then computers became commonplace, so are vibe coders bound to disappear when vibe coding becomes commonplace.
And are true programmers going to become obsolete? Well, let me ask you: did the proliferation of cars and corresponding self-service skills render car mechanics obsolete? On the contrary. The way I see it, the proliferation of slopcode will only make competent programmers ever the more necessary.
What vibe coders are saying is basically this: "This new automated self-service kit makes car maintenance so easy. Car mechanics will become obsolete now. Everyone's just going to hire *me* to run this kit instead."

Please picture me saying this to a room full of very nice upper midwesterners who earlier asked me “what is the cloud exactly” and you will understand my predicament

So weird to be this cold and also that the precipitation would be freezing rain. My understanding is that there is a warmer layer at a higher altitude that’s the reason for it. 🤷♂️
It’s what the weather models predicted, but I somehow still doubted it. They were right.
