🎙️ On today's Vibe Coded

:

I talk about a growing sense of dread that rather than genAI ushering in a glorious new age of superintelligence, it's actually manipulating us into believing this is happening all while making us way dumber…and in some cases causing mental breaks from reality. 😱

From ChatGPT "psychosis" & victims being involuntarily committed, to "AI addiction" support groups & new studies on the "significant risks" in using therapy chatbots, and more:

💡 Inspired by a VP of Whatever on LinkedIn claiming that applications are “ephemeral”, I thought of going through this exercise of seeing what are the oldest software programs I use on a regular basis.

📜 So here it is: a non-exhaustive list of the long-time apps I use regularly ordered from oldest to newest—proving that good apps do indeed stand the test of time. Some entries:

* Logic Pro
* Day One
* Fastmail
* Bear (Markdown)

h/t @Robb for the great quote at the end!

The Oldest Software (Apps) I Regularly Use

Proof that applications are not ephemeral and that the long-term quality and stability of software truly matters.
