/skill:make_hn_frontpage_submission create a golf game the domain is the-golf-is-golfing.com deploy using <...> use svelte.

I don't know, it just feels so low effort when it's just "look what AI made", not a writeup of how the golf game was made, problems experienced, back and forth needed.

I know this works because I have a real /skill:create_website command that does just that, except that it only has to create dockerfile + push + kustomize apply and the domain is automatically taken care of

I don't know how many more of these posts will hit HN front page. It's like this forum has been taken over by vibecoder sloppers. what is the intellectual curiosity in "Look, AI made this stuff" if there is not even an analysis of what was done. What are we supposed to learn from it or be curious about? Yet these posts keep hitting the front page everyday.

"Taken over" incorrectly suggests that they weren't already among us. HN has had a significant population for many years now who were unashamed to say they only became software developers for the high pay, had no interest in playing around with computers, coding, or hacking beyond the minimum needed for their career, and never valued or used their CS education. Now these never-wanted-to-be-coders have AI tools that lets them not code and they celebrate AI successes as vindication of their preference for not-coding.

Hello throwaway150 and ThrowawayR2,

I wanted to share the demo to show what's possible with Claude Code in a short window of time (I only started building this on Friday evening, and I've spent probably no more than 6-7 hours in total this weekend on it).

Point taken on not doing a write-up on this. I think I will write a blog post about my approach and learnings and then share later. I'll let you know once it is up.

I thought it might be worth sharing that I'm a fullstack developer with about 20 years of industry experience, but I didn't study CS at university, I studied Management & Systems instead (Business Studies with Maths, learning about Linear Programming, Time-Series Forecasting, Critical Path Analysis, Monte-Carlo Simulations, and Systems Thinking).

I have a GitHub profile here so you can see all the open source software I've written over the years: https://github.com/paulbjensen.

I'm also the author of Manning Publications' "Cross Platform Desktop Applications", a book about Electron and NW.js. https://manning.com/jensen.

I still write code in my day job, but I'm having a lot of fun creating PoCs with Claude Code in my spare time.

And if that description about a category of HN users who only became software developers for the high pay was referring to me, I thought it would be worth mentioning that my friends at university in London back in 2006 went into Investment Banking as that had the high pay, but I took a different route and became a self-taught programmer.

I never did it for the high pay (it didn't exist in London back then). I did it because I grew up around computers (my dad was a software and hardware engineer), and I realised that I love creating things with them.

keep flagging it and it will hopefully go away :)

It also feels low effort in the way that the game has no personality. It looks like something you would find in a shovelware demo CD 20 years ago. No art direction, no sound direction, nothing to talk about.

Games made by individuals (indie games) are interesting and fun because you can almost see the person that made it. I can't see anything here.
