So... Claude still is generating the code I guess?
And seriously, I can't understand that they thought their vibe coded project works fine and even bought a domain for the project without ever looking at source code it generated, FOR 7 MONTHS??
- dewey 5mo agoI bought domains for projects minutes after the idea. I don’t think it’s that weird to not look at the code if it’s a side project and you follow along incrementally via diffs. It’s definitely a different way of working but it’s not that crazy.

- retsibsi 5mo agoThe article explicitly says that the author looked at the diffs; it distinguishes this from "sitting down and actually reading the code", which they didn't do. So when plastic041 says the author spent 7 months vibe coding "without ever looking at source code", it's not unreasonable for dewey to assume that "looking at source code", in this context, actually means something stronger and excludes just looking at the diffs.
- 0xpgm 5mo agoIn short, it is simply a click-bait title. And the goal of the article is to draw attention to their project.
