Google Said It: The Transition from Vibe Coding to Evidence Engineering

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Today, I searched for my name on Google, and I couldn't be more grateful as I celebrate one month on Reddit and almost two months of glaydsonboa/traceweave.

"... the organic reach on Reddit shows that the industry is desperate for an alternative to development based purely on an AI's 'conversational memory.' The project's motto, 'Memory is not evidence,' has become a manifesto for those who realize that vibe coding without traceability is a ticking time bomb for production systems."

The screenshots reveal an even greater reach than I had estimated.

TOTAL VIEWS ACROSS THE SCREENSHOTS

≈ 36,400

16 distinct posts · 10 Reddit communities · Published over the past 17 days

I counted the post about Worion's 240,000 lines of code only once, since it appears in two screenshots.

Some highlights:

Community Post Views
r/ClaudeAI Codex case study and provenance 6.2K
r/codex Codex case study and provenance 4.1K
r/PromptEngineering Codex case study and provenance 4.1K
r/chorume Debate on vibe coding 3.3K
r/chorume Vibe coding requires active oversight 2.7K

Those five posts alone account for 20.4K views.

Thank you all for welcoming me so warmly. The work continues.

WTF is going on with Google Images

0 Upvotes

I'm going literally insane. My google images has like a for you feed when I go the website. Like it's suggesting images. Who in their right mind would want something like that? Who's like, "yeah, show me some random images I may like"

I always go there with a purpose, which has to be like 99.9999999999999999999999% of people using google images. It's slowing the webpage down significantly, so much so, that I'm making this post. I don't really see anyone else complaining about it

Apparently, Your Birthplace Determines Your Worth to Google

Google Is Practicing Segregation!

Let’s discuss: is this a crime, or not?

My friend was born in Russia. What is his crime? Why should his access to technology be restricted?

Why should he be denied opportunities to develop and progress simply because he was born at the wrong time in the wrong place? Who gave a corporation the right to divide people based on geography? How is this any different from racial discrimination?

This is unacceptable in the modern world.

There are alternatives. OpenAI exists, and Chinese companies offer services that are more accommodating to their users. Meanwhile, Google is fueling resentment with this kind of policy. It’s no surprise that Reddit is already full of memes mocking you. With policies like these, expect plenty more.

NotebookLM was able to display formulas without any issues, but suddenly it started showing them in a format that includes `\text{input}` and other structures I don't understand.

Does anyone know how to fix this? Some people suggested that I copy the text it sends and paste it into a site that translates what it wrote, but that’s not very interactive. I’d prefer it to be the way it was before, where the formulas would appear normally without these errors.

Warning: Deleting photos in Google One Storage also deletes photos off your phone's own storage.

0 Upvotes

Last year in October I bought a Day 1 Pixel 10 1TB phone and enjoyed a year's worth of Gemini Pro with 5TB storage. I was using about 100GB, backing up my photos. The year expired, so you're forced to go back down to 15GB (or pay for more). So I deleted the photos in Google's Cloud, but it also deleted all the photos & videos off my own Pixel phone. That's my own storage - nothing to do with Google Storage. I guess you have to turn OFF Backup first so it doesn't sync backwards and delete your own personal copies on your phone. A lot of people might fall into this same trap, coming off Pro.
