Ha ha, may be that came out a bit wrong. What I meant is I don’t have a complete understanding of the architecture and the structure before I start coding. It is only when I write the first test and the first function that I start noticing the structure and the limitations. I can’t think of all the branches where the code might fail unless I start writing and realizing the elses.

I never understood vibe coding (or ✨Agentic Coding✨) tbh.

May be I am too stupid, but I think as I code and code as I think. I do not usually formulate a plan before I start coding. I am categorizing architecture as code btw because, for me, architecture involves pseudo-code to some degree .

Even in college, I could never just understand lectures. I needed to write down the formulas and work out the derivations myself to grasp them. I know there are people who understand things right away, but I am not one of them.

So, now, when I see senior developers (which I am not) vibe code green field projects, I am just astounded as to how they manage the architecture + understanding + optimization + maintenance context.

If you look closely, it also knows your gender.

Btw, I am not able to create an account.

I see. Thanks for the link.

How are they getting around it? I thought Australia implemented some sort of ID verification? And given that social media platforms notoriously refuse to run on VPNs, how are the teenagers bypassing the checks? Is everyone there using their parent’s ID or something?!

And why would you trust your own ISP more than reputable VPNs?

Sure, this statement is very valid for (free) VPNs which are not reputable, and act as data mines instead of providing true privacy; but your statement reads very much like we do not need VPNs at all.

ISPs know what sites you are visiting and when, and they are ready to comply with the government. Also, we have acts like Online Safety Act (UK), which incentivizes more data collection. Combine that with age verification on every site, and you are basically giving away your browsing history.

I agree that a VPN alone is not going to protect you, and you need to authenticate less into websites, and clear your cookies after every browser session (basically good OpSec). However, I also think that reputable providers like Mullvad and Proton are a must.

That’s it, I’m switching to Windows!
