Vibe Coding
What is vibe coding and how do you use it? Guides on AI-assisted development with Claude Code, prompt engineering, and workflow engineering to ship software faster.
Claude Code is for software developers, and OpenClaw is more for business users.
A learner said this to another learner during a recent workshop. I think this is the most common and most dangerous misconception about these two tools.
Should I Still Use MCP? Is MCP Dead?
So I thought it is good to write about it, especially for a non-tech audience who are curious.
Does Qwen 3.5 live up to the hype?
I tested 9 local LLMs on a Claude Code skill I actually use every day. Not a coding benchmark. A real multi-step agentic task described in natural language a...
One of my biggest AI productivity unlocks this year is the extensive use of agent skills.
In this post, I share my insights after building around 75 skills over 5 months. Coding and non-coding. LinkedIn posts, cover images, carousels, presentation...
Am I the only one feeling uneasy building AI agents with OpenCrawl after testing it for a while?
I've been building AI agents before OpenClaw, and building skills using Claude Code for a while. It's powerful. When I learned about OpenClaw, I knew exactly...
How To Create Agent Skill To Write LinkedIn Posts That Sound Like You
Most people are surprised when I tell them I use AI to write all of my LinkedIn posts.
From ChatGPT to Claude Code: A Non-Techie’s Introduction to the Raw Power of AI by a Techie
Not because I don't like sharing. But because the only tool I use for 99% of my AI needs is Claude Code. And while I think it is not hard to learn, I'm never...
Claude Code can code nice UI. But nice UI doesn't mean good UI.
Manual UI testing is becoming one of my biggest bottlenecks when coding with AI now.
Not every automation needs an AI agent. After burning $25+ with a browser agent just to download analytics of my top LinkedIn posts, I decided to build a simple automation tool that costs nothing to run.

"Wait, you used to do THAT manually?"
I've been building software for 19 years. Something that would take me 2 months now takes 1 week.
Don't believe the BS that you can use Claude Code for free.
Ollama recently made their API compatible with Claude Code. Many creators quickly jumped on the opportunity to farm engagement with the hook: "You can now u...
We were promised autonomous AI agents. But got Workflow Automation 2.0 instead.
2025: The Year of AI Agents 😄
Vibe coders, this old news will happen to you sooner or later.
Unless you set up your project correctly.
Announcing my new book proposal:
📚 Working Effectively with Vibed Code
UX/UI and naming matter more than capability for adoption.
Recently, everyone on LinkedIn is talking about learning Claude after the demo of Claude Cowork.
One of the most common copywriting mistakes junior marketers make:
Selling features, not benefits.
Hot Take: Vibe Coding Won't Replace Software Engineers
Here, I share my journey from a strong believer to a skeptic.
The Hype Cycle of Claude Code That Everyone Will Go Through
Last week, Boris shared he built Claude Cowork with 100% vibe coding in 10 days. It took the software world by storm.
No, vibe coding does not create tech debt.
Bad coders do.
AI Coding Assistants Have a Security Blind Spot
A few months ago, I wrote about a non-technical founder whose SaaS got exploited right after he publicly showed his build process using Cursor (https://lnkd....
Claude Code and OpenAI Codex Do Track You
Recently, after hitting my Claude Code Max limit, I switched over to OpenAI Codex to continue my work.

The winner is still Claude Code...
Two Choices for Handling Tech Debt in Vibe Coding
· Go full vibe: ignore tech debt, and when things inevitably break, spend a week fixing it.
No, Karpathy Didn’t Say Vibe Coding Doesn’t Work
This starkly contrasts with my own experience.
The Worst Job Displacement of Software Engineers Is Yet to Come.
This is not another fear mongering post.
Gemini CLI stubbornly insisted its code was right and even did a Google search to prove it with an outdated article.
I was speechless. 😂
Low-code (or no-code) platforms will replace coding.
That’s the narrative we keep hearing for years.
"Guys, I’m under attack"
I came across this post where a founder shared how his SaaS got exploited right after he started sharing how he built his SaaS using Cursor.
I was doing vibe coding and saw AI generated this code.
Notice anything?
Vibe coding has been around longer than we think...
I once asked a developer to explain his code when it broke due to edge cases. He told me he didn't know because he copied it from Google. At least he was hon...
I was amazed by AI coding assistant the first time I used Cursor.
It wrote code almost similar to how I would write it.
DeepWiki: AI-Generated Docs for Any GitHub Repo
If you're using open-source software, one of the most common problems is outdated or poor documentation.
OpenAI’s Windsurf deal is off — and Windsurf’s CEO is going to Google
Anyone feel like we should use AI to create a drama and publish it on Netflix?
Cursor's Pricing Changes Caused an Uproar
They have to do it because subsidizing the market with cheap tokens is not sustainable in the long run.

Can AI really write production-quality code?
Here's a chance to peek how it is used in an actual project.
I finally concede that AI is smarter than me.
For 2 years, I held onto reasons like “AI can't solve my kid's homework” or “It can't play tic-tac-toe” to believe I was still smarter.
Has Cursor Gotten Worse Over the Last 4 Months?
When I first started using Cursor, I was blown away. With a single prompt, it generated clean, multi-file codes that mirrored exactly how I would have writte...
I caught Cursor trying to be lazy.
The AI agent couldn’t solve the typing error, so it cast the variable to 'any' to suppress the error, just like a sloppy software engineer would.
💡 Little-known hack to get the most out of Cursor for FREE
If you're using Cursor on the free plan, you will eventually hit the dreaded "servers overload" screen.
What Publishers Think About AI Image Generation
I couldn’t find the original source of the meme—happy to credit the author if anyone knows the source.
