600 years ago, only 5% of people could read and write.
In 2015, just 0.5% of of the world could write/read code.

I remember thinking: in 2615, will it seem just as shocking that so few of us could write code?

Turns out I was wildly conservative.
Vibe coding seems to be collapsing that 600-year prediction into a decade.
People who've never written a line of code are now building apps, automating workflows, creating tools just by describing what they want.
It's incredible...

"Me want burger" directed at the microwave while it spins your frozen mid-tier burger.

It spits out a weirdly hot but cold "burger" after a minute. The bread is mush and the patty is frozen in the center, but it's a burger none the less.

"Wow and just think, in a decade everyone could be a 5star chef like me"

I like my microwave as much as the next person, and it has its usecase like any tool, but lets not start building microwaves into cars and fridges and washing machines.

    For some reason the burger has four buns. The pickles are on top of the outer bun. There is a second plate inside the burger.

    At this rate, we will have Perfect Burgers in another six months to two years

    If you look at old microwave ads they claimed the microwave would replace the oven and stove and do everything in the kitchen for you faster and easier.

    In my lifetime I've been told electric slow cookers, instapots, and now airfriers would do everything for me and they all ended up being just another tool.

    Marketing is a hell of drug.
