Title says

> back to writing code by hand

But what they are doing is

> doing the __design work__ myself, by hand, before any code gets written.

So... Claude still is generating the code I guess?

And seriously, I can't understand that they thought their vibe coded project works fine and even bought a domain for the project without ever looking at source code it generated, FOR 7 MONTHS??

In short, it is simply a click-bait title.

And the goal of the article is to draw attention to their project.

I bought domains for projects minutes after the idea.

I don’t think it’s that weird to not look at the code if it’s a side project and you follow along incrementally via diffs. It’s definitely a different way of working but it’s not that crazy.

Its not weird to not look at the code, as long as you're looking at the code? (diffs?)

Uh, ok

The article explicitly says that the author looked at the diffs; it distinguishes this from "sitting down and actually reading the code", which they didn't do. So when plastic041 says the author spent 7 months vibe coding "without ever looking at source code", it's not unreasonable for dewey to assume that "looking at source code", in this context, actually means something stronger and excludes just looking at the diffs.
