Your anecdata to this one time you took a trip to California doesn’t help.

You can just look at % of urban residents that use transit, which is lower in US than any western country. Clearly transit isn’t built or available in a sufficient way to majority of people


It’s almost like there’s consequences to making it as hard as possible for people to be legalized.

It's equally a consequence of not immediately arresting and deporting illegal immigrants the moment the government learns about their presence on US soil.

The easy way to accomplish that would be to go after the businesses that employ them. At this point, however, I think it's safe to assume it's not the real objective, and the economy would crash into a ditch if policy was anything but theater.

Rails encouraged density around the train stations.

Rail is not responsible for the car sprawling type of communities which are mostly a 20th century phenomenon.


Quite an imaginative technique you got there.

Oui. i imagine what would happen if he came to someone with:

Ding dong... voici l'osti de pizza que l'osti de téléphone a commandé à partir de l'osti de maison. Maintenant donnes l'osti d'argent.

Indeed...

The vibecoder was on MeshOS, which indeed is not open source


That's the board firmware, not the official Meshcore Android or IOS app.

I admit it was a super meta-funny response, because everyone I see that's into meshcore thinks it's open source because of that repository and posts it after a 30 second google search when questioned.

Then you ask them to actually find a source file for the apps and they go quiet. It's wild how much it looks like open source from a casual glance.


It wasn't ai assisted coding, it was vibe coding from someone with no real coding background. A communication protocol can't be vibe coded, how do you enforce security if the person is unable to understand what the tool created?

Especially when they try to hide that they were using those tools in the first place


>It wasn't ai assisted coding, it was vibe coding from someone with no real coding background.

Can you elaborate on this?

I'd agree that is problematic. But that's not what the article said. The article just said he was using Claude Code a lot. It's ridiculous to equivocate those two things. That's what I have an issue with.


Definitely not, the design was quite carefully made to avoid the pitfalls of Meshtastic. The developers documented quite a lot of their early work. It really didn't feel like a vibe-coded type of environment.


I knew from that moment never to use any Vercel product. If your leadership is that compromised, you know the rest of the ship is heading into a wall.

What do you use to edit texts on a dashboard or cms?

My wife needed a website. I’m not much of a frontend coder but I looked at the price of squarespace for a year and decided to go that route with AI.

Website is Astro. I easily update sophisticated designs with Claude or Gemini cli.

Hosted for free on cloudflare, it’s super fast. Any git update deploys to the website in a minute.

Got an hosted email form with astro action.

The only thing left is integrating a CMS. I was thinking of keystatic but it’s not compatible with Astro 6 yet. That’s the issue with vibe coding a stack you don’t know as much, without realizing it picked a version of astro that was so new that some tools didnt quite integrate with it yet.


For some personal projects in the past I have used google sheets and cloudflare workers, I guess it could be called CMS, but it was quite restricted of course.

This project has a "shared" backend for the content management and its completely self built. Because there are many clients who use it to edit things its feasible to pay for the hosting.

For a solo project, id be quite interested if someone would build a native editor that can be just hooked with git, so it would make it possible to run the site serverless. Maybe one already exists. "IDE" for static websites.


Are you planning on having just simple content as markdown files, or your own database + CMS?


I want to avoid a database, so it would be file storage on git for content.
