we're vibing to the future...
im seeing vibe coding for what it really is: fairly easy prototyping to go from concept to prototype with little to no coding experience. sure, we're going to get a lot of badly code, half working applications, but that's not the point. the point here is to early prototype your ideas, get them out there into cyberspace, and have the powers at be (talented and experienced developers) take these ideas and contribute and/or run with them via their own skill sets.
the more ideas we have flowing, the better.

quoting nevent1q…6axjI guess I just vibe coded a V4V Netflix replacement 🤷
What if movies & shows worked like Podcasting 2.0? What if you could grab a video from anywhere, usenet, torrent, whatever, and you could verify it's from the creator. Then when you watch it, they get sats streamed to them. What if they set up a prism to forward sats to everyone who worked to produce it, WHILE you watch it?
Would you pay for movies that you would normally pirate, if it was easy AF to get the movie and to pay what you think it was worth? Would we even need content distributors anymore? Just blast out your movie!
What if the creator could get insight into how much of a movie the audience watches, based on the sats streamed? Or if they get boosted at the really good parts of the movie? Wouldn't that incentivize making really good films?
In just a few hours, with no coding done by me, I have an app that can:
Connect to my AlbyHub via NWC.
Read the metadata of a video file to detect embedded lightning addresses.
Streams 10 sats per minute to that address.
Can you see how huge this is? Not just the fact that some rando that can't code made this. But what something like this could enable for creators and provide a ton of value for audiences?
There's no real UI yet. I just wanted to get a proof of concept working. But it does what it's supposed to. I can stream sats to myself to watch an MP4 I made this morning for my meetup. Ran a quick command to add a lightning address to the file's metadata, and the app read it. 30 sats went from my Alby wallet to my Btcpayserver.
