  • Also, another thing to consider is whether there’s other people around and what their gender is. Consider the scenario of me (a man) walking down the street at night and there’s one person around that I need to pass by to get where I’m going.

    If I’m constantly moving my head to look around at everything, I’m going to look really shady and make other people worried. I’m just trying to get somewhere, so I’d rather not bother people, which means it’s better to just look ahead and kinda ignore them, and trust that my peripheral vision will pick up any actual threats.

    That all being said, this experiment wasn’t set up to consider that at all. Especially since the study is from Brigham Young University (ew), and at a spot on campus referred to as “Rape Hill”. So thinking this much about the study is probably a waste of ti.e








  • Why would experienced devs join a vibe-coded project that barely works to overhaul it? Most of the time it’d be quicker and easier to start a new project from scratch with the same goals but coded competently.

    You’re bending over backwards just to come up with a plausible-sounding excuse for vibe-coding. But unfortunately, “plausible-sounding” isn’t the same as “plausible”.

    Vibe coding might be “good enough” for a tiny private project for someone who doesn’t know how to code and isn’t interested in learning. But LLM’s aren’t good enough to build usable architectures.

    And all publicly available human-created code was already trawled years ago, and the creation of more is slow. LLM’s can’t get significantly better at coding by just throwing more data into their training because there is no more data left that isn’t already in the training.
