Pavel @spavel.bsky.social · 06/03/2026But that's not how people who are unfamiliar with critique think. They see high detail and think high fidelity. Then they think, "what comes next after high fidelity? Oh, it's production." "Therefore we must ship this vibe-coded prototype." AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! 12089
Pavel @spavel.bsky.social · 06/03/2026As an aside, this mindset is often described as "lean" because you skip the "waste" of low fidelity work. Buddy, no. Low fidelity is not the waste. Work in low fidelity is what prevents the high detail work from being waste. Lean is when cheap-as-free sketches are all you need to avoid that waste. 123829
