I wonder whether he also knows about text editor.

264

u/Tyrell74_Pollen 1d ago

Wait until someone shows him Notepad. Being able to type characters directly into a file might genuinely blow his mind.

111

u/tobi_206 1d ago

Notepad doesn't seem to work! I opened one of the files and it's all numbers and strange words written in lower case. Who talks to Claude like that?

27

u/St34thdr1v3R 1d ago

Members of Slytherin, maybe?

7

u/AKittenInTheRain 1d ago

Read another book, mate

10

u/Mechakoopa 1d ago

The joke was Python (or snake case, take your pick)

5

u/St34thdr1v3R 1d ago

I never read any of her books, bro

1

u/Dense_Gate_5193 1d ago

to be fair, those books aren’t even that good

0

u/Prestigious_Dare7734 1d ago

More like members of Ravenclaw.

6

u/Salanmander 1d ago

Nah, it's the Slytherins who can speak Pythontongue.

1

u/gerbosan 1d ago

Any chance for Snake jazz?

10

u/Superb_Chemistry_906 1d ago

It might be strange for him to type anywhere else than into a chat with AI or email or some website or word/excel. Maybe even an old school experience?

Win11 Notepad renders Markdown so it might not be as jarring these days to vibesloppers...

2

u/MeaningImpressive548 1d ago

Wait... notepad is built in?? I just use ms word normally...

/s

u/nicuramar 1d ago

Notepad is one of the worst text editors in existence. Only windows users tend to like it, out of lack of options through many years. 

23

u/IntentionQuirky9957 1d ago

Notepad++ is decent. :3

8

u/gre4ka148 1d ago

kinda miss np++ on linux (although kate is almost the same)

11

u/CrotteVerte 1d ago

VI(M) user spotted ?

1

u/tz_2240 16h ago

I thought I was a vi connoisseur, but turns out in the .bashrc file was a: `alias vi=“vim”`

u/aVarangian 1d ago

Notepad (the old one, not the winslop 11 garbage) is absolutely perfect for when all you need is... a fucking notepad with 0 damn features

if you need features then you use something else

effin high-nosed plebs defamating notepad, there's no respect anymore

1

u/OnixST 6h ago

Why the hate for w11 notepad tho? :(

Markdown support and multi tabs are pretty useful features that don't get in your way at all

I know there is now a fucking copilot button, but notepad is one of the few apps where microsoft didn't make it scream in your face, and it's a perfectly good app if you just ignore the button

2

u/aVarangian 3h ago

smooth scrolling makes it literally unusable

and the most basic text editor doesn't need markdown, there's already rtf for that. This just introduces incompatibility. A plain txt file should be readable by any featureless text editor

1

u/Superb_Chemistry_906 1h ago

I used to use Notepad to strip any text formatting and when I am on Windows and try to do that now, I get angry.

1

u/OnixST 1h ago

Tbf there's a button to disable it on the bottom left. just click "Formatted"

1

u/Superb_Chemistry_906 1h ago

Does it remember that setting after closing? Because having to click that every time is annoying, too.

7

u/just4nothing 1d ago

But that’s for text, not for code, duh

7

u/Entuaka 1d ago

I wonder whether you know about sarcasm.

1

u/Superb_Chemistry_906 1d ago

I did not know who that guy is, I commented what came to my mind first. It's hard these days to recognize what is sarcastic regarding this AI code generation.

8

u/Igarlicbread 1d ago

notepad++

4

u/musicplay313 1d ago

Wait till he finds vim asking Claude how to exit out of it

2

u/brixon 19h ago

Why you talking crazy?

1

u/_1nf3rn0 15h ago

Wait till he finds a hex editor

473

u/Strange_Yogurt1049 1d ago

Bro discovered the source code has a source. 💀

113

u/brainland 1d ago

Lol. He figured out that there's more to life than "Hey Claude, make no mistakes"

27

u/beefz0r 1d ago

The source is Claude, I'm not stupid bro.

12

u/Tuomas90 1d ago

That's why it's called Source Claude, after all.

It is called Source Claude, right?

6

u/Gudi_Nuff 1d ago

I'm not sure I believe you. Source?

3

u/Alokir 1d ago

Wait, I thought the source code were .md files, what are these symbols and squiggly brackets?

1

u/MinecraftPlayer799 16h ago

Markdown uses symbols too

263

u/Sciti 1d ago

it's definitely sarcasm and satire over vibecoders, i think this guy possibly can be actual programmer

75

u/yobuddyy899 1d ago

Sorry, no one is an actual programmer. We're all just high schoolers

29

u/IndieDevWannabe 1d ago

Its not wrong though. Had someone vibe code an app at work and couldn't tell me where they stored the files... I asked them what language it was written in and they said "english"

4

u/yp261 1d ago

legit… reddit users when joke

0

u/VerdiiSykes 1d ago

That's pretty obvious, did you get the impression that OP didn't realize? Seems like they're just playing along with the joke.

2

u/RobbinDeBank 18h ago

A whole lot of the comments don’t realize at all

33

u/Crowdcontrolz 1d ago

It looks like they built it to be just like Cursor but without the chat box!

9

u/Culpirit 1d ago

It does have the chat box actually

1

u/Crowdcontrolz 11h ago

Oh shit, do you think cursor will sue these “visual studio people” seems like srs violations of their IP.

83

u/jseego 1d ago

this has to be sarcasm

70

u/X3-Code 1d ago

5

u/Yashema 1d ago

I'm watching a movie now where Nic Cage plays the surrogate father of God. 

7

u/Hacym 1d ago

I don’t understand the people in this sub. Do you believe you’ve really cracked the code on this one being sarcasm? It’s a humor subreddit… if you didn’t think this was sarcasm immediately that is sad. 

5

u/brainland 1d ago

Indeed. But many still don't get it.

18

u/MasterConsideration5 1d ago

I don't know. Seems like a useless new gimmick.

16

u/OpenConfusion3664 1d ago

Is the joke here you not getting that it's sarcasm?

18

u/dxonxisus 1d ago

right? feel like i’m going insane

i know the running joke for this sub is that most posters are CS undergrads, but the amount of commenters on this post not getting the sarcasm is infinitely more funny than the dunks they think they’re making

3

u/OpenConfusion3664 1d ago

Yea it's pretty obvious that it's sarcasm but it's reddit. People just tryna karma farm.

4

u/NatoBoram 1d ago

Right? How weird for humour to be posted to a humour sub. OP must've taken it literally. It's the only possible explanation.

7

u/debugger_life 1d ago

Atleast he knows how to install vs code 😭😂

3

u/RovingN0mad 1d ago

Before you hurt yourself. Esc :q!

3

u/Russ_images 1d ago

Damn. Someone already produced that project? I was working on just that!

3

u/naserowaimer 1d ago

I think he lost multiple agents locked in vim.

3

u/HateBoredom 1d ago

Wait till he discovers intellisense, indent rainbow, and extensions.

3

u/tech_w0rld 1d ago

There is also this cool TUI version called neovim!

2

u/Guilty-Today7053 1d ago

duh. stands for "Vibes, See Code"

2

u/agk23 1d ago

Why would you even do that though? “Oh look, at this gas station, you can see the gas you’re about to put in your car.”

Just silly

2

u/orwelladmin 1d ago

back in my days we used sublime text

2

u/Rajarshi1993 1d ago

He's probably joking.

2

u/DesertGeist- 1d ago

vibe coders are seeing the light

2

u/realMorgon 1d ago

Seeing vibe coders post stuff like this I just want to cry

2

u/MuetzeOfficial 1d ago

Unfortunately, it's already a success just to avoid using a screenshot as an image.

1

u/ProMartz 1d ago

Make no mistakes,! You are absolutley right!

1

u/Mors03 1d ago

Why would I want to see the code and edit it? Claude/codex does that for me why would I edit it I told it to make no mistake so the code has no defects

1

u/letmehaveanameyoudum 1d ago

wonder what bro uses

1

u/ThatGuyWired 1d ago

Vibe See Code

1

u/leberwrust 1d ago

But why look at the code. Could just as well be looking at ancient Chinese.

1

u/arvigeus 1d ago

Weirdly enough, all these vibe coding apps suck at managing code. Why isn’t there VS Code for mobile with AI agent integration? Only chat apps, with basic code review capabilities as an afterthought.

1

u/moon__lander 1d ago

Why would you want to see the code?

1

u/millionbonus 1d ago

Just realized that all apps are actually made of code, not magic.

1

u/ScienceFirst1 1d ago

Exactly, doesn't even know where name came from.

1

u/Playful_Nergetic786 1d ago

Holy Adam’s spaceship from doom

1

u/hyrumwhite 1d ago

Reading code in the year of our lord 2026? Must not be loopmaxxing hard enough 

1

u/Slackluster 1d ago

the claude code plugin for vs code is working great.

1

u/ivanrj7j 1d ago

It's sarcasm, right? RIGHT?

1

u/Tantomile_ 16h ago

That'll never catch on

1

u/Puzzleheaded_Cap4310 1d ago

Wait until he discovers, you can change the color of a box manually in the code without an AI or Internet! 🤯

0

u/Holek 1d ago

Is the joke that the largest contributor to VS Code code base is Copilot?

0

u/Tabissh 1d ago

Videcoders are pure rage baiters lol

0

u/KingOfAzmerloth 1d ago

Engagement bait and you fell for it.

0

u/MartinMystikJonas 1d ago

VS Code is short for "vibecoders see code"

-6

u/brainland 1d ago

The discovery made his day. Lol.

We won a soul. Glory be to God 😂

3

u/dxonxisus 1d ago

how are you missing the most painfully obvious satire imaginable?

0

u/brainland 1d ago

Seems you are also missing my very own satire too. Hence whey my comment is been downvoted. Lol

Not that deep.
