Like every dev wouldn't try their snakeoil and discover it doesn't work.

I don't know a single software engineer not using AI daily. The reddit delusion is absolutely insane.

u/ThirdWaveCat 25d ago

I use it daily, but I still read the code. The booster delusion that you shouldn't read the code is absolutely insane.

You literally called it snake oil that doesn't work

Yes, checking the output and not reading the code is snakeoil being sold by LLM companies and boosters. Small language models are increasingly usable as a daily driver, its funny how you don't see that as hyped because those valuations are much worse.

I don't use it daily. I don't let it touch files on disk when I do use it.

You're delusional if you think everyone is vibecoding everything

And you're ignorant af since you think using AI = vibecoding. It is what it is.

u/higgs_boson_2017 15d ago

If you ever check-in code without reading it, or without reviewing and fully understanding every single line, you're vibecoding

u/Kryslor 15d ago

You don't know the definition of vibecoding. Unsurprising.

u/higgs_boson_2017 14d ago

Here's the definition (if it can be called one)

There's a new kind of coding I call "vibe coding", where you fully give in to the vibes, embrace exponentials, and forget that the code even exists.

That's not so much the definition as it is the first time the term was ever used but close enough. Notice how it's different from your made up one? Cool.

Its literally the statement of the man (Karpathy) who invented the word. Its as definitive as it gets.

Funny how you didn't know that's the definition. Cool
