The bug that only appeared when someone else used it

I tested my vibecoded project for two days before showing it to anyone. Clicked everything, tried every button, felt confident.

The first person who used it broke it in four minutes.

What’s something non-technical that improved your product more than code?

For us, it was rewriting our onboarding copy.

We spent weeks building features, fixing bugs, tweaking flows but people still dropped off after signing up.

Then one night, I rewrote the first three screens to sound more human. Less Welcome to [App]! and more:

Let s help you stop stressing about what to wear.

The thing vibecoding taught me about my own taste

I did not realize how much of my job was taste until I started generating code fast.

When you can produce ten versions of a feature in an afternoon, the bottleneck moves. It is no longer how fast you can build. It is how well you can tell which version is good. And that skill lives completely outside the tool.

The code I read and the code I trust

I have noticed a split in myself that I am not proud of. I read the code I wrote by hand. I do not read the code the model writes for me. I just look at the result and decide if it seems right.

That is fine until it is not. And when it is not, I am in a stranger's house with no idea where the light switches are.

The moment the demo became the product

There is a specific moment in vibecoding that nobody warns you about. The demo works. It does the thing. You show someone and they say wow.

Then they actually use it, and it falls apart in ways the demo never could.

If you could merge two existing products into one, what would you combine?

I've been thinking about this a lot lately while building.

So many tools we use daily feel like they should be one product, but they're scattered across 5 different subscriptions.

What do you trim off a landing page if all seems equally important?

I am working on the landing page for a tiny habit app and have come to the point when every word seems to be needed. There are eight pictures in the gallery. The description includes six features. The tagline has been revised four times this week.

After looking at successful launches in the recent past, I see that they choose one defining moment. The screenshot captures the main action and the result and everything else on the page follows from that picture. The launches which attempted to convey everything usually confused me about what the product does.

Should governments control what you post on social media, or should that be left to the platforms?

Freedom of speech should be a given.

Except it isn t.

I understand that platforms have their own community guidelines and want to maintain certain standards of conduct.
