    vibe coding implies a complete lack of process. The definition is basically YOLO.... https://x.com/karpathy/status/1886192184808149383

    Right? also, where's the thunderbolt ports? and it needs about another inch? maybe half inch on the screen. And really, 16gb is the new minimum. There's a whole bunch of accelerati…

    Depends what you're developing. You could build a pretty powerful webapp as long as you don't fall into 'i need my blog running in kubernetes' trap. For a couple months I was on an…
