No Vibes Allowed: Solving Hard Problems in Complex Codebases – Dex Horthy, HumanLayer

Method

This deck is slide-only. The existing captured video frame set supplies candidate frames, then local OpenCV rejects sponsor/title/speaker-only frames, crops visible slide surfaces, deduplicates, and saves the cropped slide images.

Cropped Visible Slides

AI slide classifier: content_slide confidence 0.99
Text source: advanced OCR rapidocr-live/bright-screen/opencv-adaptive.
OCR decision: ready — Dense quadrant diagram with multiple labels and small text; OCR is the cheaper/more reliable path.

Slide text:

Task Complexity High Complex tasks require deeper human insight +10-15% Constrained by outdated code & intricate dependencies +0-10%

Low These tasks are often repetitive and well-defined +35-40% Legacy projects still benefit on simpler tasks +15-20%
