I know no one stops you from using hashtag `codevember` on vibe coded project[0], but... isn't the whole point of these one month challenges(genuary, nodevember, inktober, etc) about human creativity? Like game jams?
While true, I think it's also true that ideas are cheap - how many people here know someone that had a great idea (like "uber for pets") and just need a software developer to build it?
That said, idea people can now make their ideas a reality quicker / cheaper without needing an expert, if only to show it. Which in turn can make them more creative and original. In theory.
I guess, but this isn't just some claude-kiddie, he's the creator of Three.js. it's like slamming Linus for using AI on the Linux kernel. He knows what he's doing.
I know who he is and I don't care what he does with ai.
To me these little challenges are about improving programming skills, showing creativity, and mostly just for fun. So using LLMs on 'codevember' feels weird. That doesn't mean I'm blaming him for it, I'm just having a hard time accepting it.
Not OP but if it comes to Claude or OpenAI use, that does make me roll my eyes.
That said, I use local AI on GPUs I own, so they are -my- tools on -my- property to help me research debug and help me execute my ideas faster than I could before, so more things get done than were done previously.
I keep my AI rack under my 3D printer because they are the same type of tool to me.
Creativity is about coming up with your vision with the tools at hand in my eyes. I would still argue in situations like this you need a sense of style to understand what works and what doesn't.
As you can surmise from the domain, this is created by Mr Doob. They're most well known for creating the 3D JavaScript library Three.js: https://threejs.org
Their full site and a lot more cool stuff they've made can be found here: https://mrdoob.com
It is nice, but I'm somewhat unnerved that it never stops pouring. I expect it to finally stop at some time, and it doesn't, which for some reason makes me uneasy.

The creativity space moves. Now, it has moved to how you use your tokens.
For some..
And some people still make stone tools as a creative pursuit. Everything is valid as creativity.
I thought so too, but AI is kinda destroying everything fun. Game jams, Advent of code, codevember apparently. To me personally it's super sad to see.
If you care about leaderboards perhaps. If you do it because it's fun then there is no reason to use AI if you don't find that fulfilling.
I agree given that it’s about competition and not just having fun.
Ugh, fun.
i don't know, i vibe code a lot but could never come up with that. To me, it is pretty much human creativity.

If coding is for you about writing beautiful code, then yes.
Many of us are in the game because of the love for building things.
So you get the same joy from building things even when you outsource the "building" to some other person?

...when did I ever said that?

Or, best known to others as being the guy that made Gravity Google way back when.

I like this. Can I eat it?
This is fun, but boy it gets heavy/laggy as it accumulates.

Awesome! Not only that one can build this in JavaScript, but also that your browser on a mobile phone can render this.
Definitely kept me on the page, very cool.
If it could move with a mobile device’s gyroscope, that would be quite the amuse-esprit.
I was thinking the same thing, and I think it would be nice to use fluid in games.
If Apple has liquid glass, why can't web have jelly menus??
I will give, for almost free, a nice consultancy to folks looking for the purpose in their lives.
Cool
If you pause and the unpause after a while you get very pretty color bands! :)
That is oddly satisfying

Love it, but I want to tear it in half!
Really fun to play with. Great work!
When I grow up I want to be as intelligent and productive as Mr. Doob.
So squishy
I am a bit disappointed that it cannot fill entire screen because it disappears.
Now i want those jelly candies in plastic blisters.
Classic web shit. Nice.
