Journal

Good afternoon, Internet!

I've started to vibecode a few projects:

• php.rs: a PHP interpreter written in Rust
• smtp.go and imap.go: a long-obsession over email protocols, libraries to implement smtp and imap clients and servers in Go.
• micro-gpt-book : a book about how to implement the micro-GPT project from Karpathy, with everything needed to learn and understand the project, its math, etc.

I need to find the documentation framework/philosophy I read about a few days ago. (UPDATE: found it)

A subject I want to explore: how to teach the Linux kernel/is there a need to? Maybe through a book I'd send to a publisher? Why not after all?

I plan to keep vibecoding during all this afternoon.

TIL about this SwiftWasm project, which could be the opportunity to add a Swift course to Hypercode.

Another insight: this PHP interpreter written in Rust costs a lot of tokens. But if I kept iterating on it, a good thing to add could be a built-in package manager compatible with Composer.

Also, something I need to figure out or build: is there a ShadCN UI using Web Components? If not, I should vibecoe such a thing.

Another thing I'm thinking about: a CSS-less enterprise suite: CRM, ERP, etc. It would cost less overhead not to have to think at all about styling. It's what takes the most time in webdev. The rest can absolutely be vibecoded from A to Z.

I watched Patlabor I, because I've seen a tweet about Patlabor II looking great. Some scenes were fun, but mostly losing my time to be honest ahah!

Besides that, I think I need to learn more about Leibniz.
