If you ask for something complicated this headline is more than true. But why complicate things, keep it simple and keep it fast.

Also this article uses 'pfp' like it's a word, I can't figure out what it means.

I'm able to vibe code simple apps in 30 minutes, polish it in four hours and now I've been enjoying it for 2 months.

AI is usually better than traditional search for working out acronyms and jargon.

My prompt "What does PFP mean on this page: https://kanfa.macbudkowski.com/vibecoding-cryptosaurus" gave a good answer and it described extra relevant context within crypto.

I had less luck with "What does sharp tails mean in «HFT. You want low deterministic latency with sharp tails»". But I suspect the source sentence is the problem.

I noticed this as well. I had to look it up. Apparently ‘pfp’ means ‘profile picture’.

  • Yeah I’ve always found that a cringe initialism given that it’s not Pro File Picture. I would just say avatar.
