Back in late 2019 I saw an ad on Facebook for a very interesting IoT device from a Swedish company local to me - Minut. I’ve been a very happy user of the four devices (named Point at the time, known as Minut M2 now) since then. This is the story of how I spent quite some time investigating what made them tick, and if I could make them tick differently. Being a few years old, this is not their latest device. However, they are still fully supported by their service.

Vibe coding is the name given to just prompting an LLM to implement according to your directions. In this post I detail what my experience is after having done just that, viewed from the point of a senior Software Engineer and Cybersecurity expert.
I’ve vibe coded. Challenging one’s own convictions can sometimes be difficult, but necessary. I’ve used generative AI sporadically for some tasks for a while, and I haven’t been all that impressed. However, people I’ve known for many years and whose competence is not in question kept telling me how extremely productive they were with modern developer models - able to churn out fully working projects in very little time.
