More than 500 girls have graduated from the academy and some have attended top universities in South Africa, the United States and Europe, according to the Oprah Winfrey Charitable Foundation.

Agreed. I vibe code very simple projects for my personal use. Projects I wouldn’t have paid anyone to program for me, and I wouldn’t have paid for any of them. They have been mostly personal training, run tracking, raspberry pi apps, etc. All personalized just for me.

Vibe coding actually inspired me to learn real programming just for fun. But I wouldn’t want to design a consumer app or anything of that nature anyway. Too complicated and I don’t like putting up with people’s bullshit.

I do think AI will get good enough to do ultra complex apps though. In a very short while. Which is why many programmers feel threatened. I get it and sympathize. Meh, that’s the way society advances. Plenty of people in other industries have had to worry about tech advances replacing them. We all just move on. It still sucks, but it sucked for us too.

Ultimately I think AI has more positives than negatives. I’m well aware that most of Lemmy disagrees! lol

Unless you use it like I do, and build shit that only I need and use. :)

I think for school-aged children, yes. For adults, meh, we can learn along side vibe coding. Which is what I’m doing.

I can see how it would be hard to be profitable in those early days, but man, I love the look of this thing!

Desperate enough to get into the Guinness Book of World Records I guess.

Truth be told, I miss the green on black. So I set my terminal like that when I fool around at programming stuff. lol

The downvotes are 100 percent because Lemmy is anti-ai regardless of content. It is AI by the way, but I like what I like, I don’t think a human has to have touched something in order for me to like it. And I’ll continue posting AI stuff if that I enjoy. :)

Better get used to the taste of it, because it’s never ever going away. I love it, use it every day, and will continue using it every day. :)

Around 1983. “ZX Microdrive coming soon”

Doesn’t quite rise up to my definition of “The most exciting hobby kit on earth” either. I wouldn’t mind having it though, I may have to see if I can find this thing somewhere.

The look and feel of early tech was awesome and tactile. Big chunky buttons, built to last. Pricing wasn’t awesome though. Eek!

I love the look of that thing! I’ve never seen ads for them, but I just found one to post here. Thanks for this! :)

That’s the .ml spelling of the word :)

I’m not paying 10 bucks for a search engine. lolol

Everyone around me seems to have a brand new car too!

Not sure what you mean here. That has nothing to do with the article

Twiggs recalled Robinson returning to their home by the next morning, and said Robinson was pacing around the home while avoiding questions about Kirk’s assassination.

Twiggs claimed Robinson eventually admitted to the assassination, began crying and told Twiggs ‘he wishes he hadn’t done it.’

Robinson said he was going to go to his parents or turn himself in.

That’s what I was thinking!
