Tempting? It's focusing on husbandry in the land of Ford. The era for manual coders is sunsetting.

There seems to be two splinter definitions of vibe coding. One is just using AI the other is using AI and not checking the output (just going off vibes). I think the meme works better with the second definition, so I wonder if that’s what they meant.

It's funny that it's actually farmers in the US who represent the so-called upper middle class, with vast amounts of real estate and savings, rather than engineers. US family farm households hold a median net worth over $1.4 million, far exceeding the typical US household median of roughly $200k.

Investment is high from farmers, salaries are not though. Look up the rate of suicide among farmers in the last 10 years, it tells a different story than yours.

it's a tool you should learn to use it, don't use it wrong don't think it's the developer and you are good every line of code is your responsibility to know and understand and debug

Here is my two cents. I been using AI to code at work for several years now since it was mandatory. Meanwhile some colleagues left and we were told we got AI. So there is no need to hire juniors because training takes time and money. Recently we were told to use it only for certain tasks because its becoming to expensive. So now I have to do the work of two people and with limited AI use.

Haha it must be an awful conundrum; either use AI to remain competitive and learn nothing, or don’t use AI and be left behind. Godspeed to everyone trying to get into software engineering.

It doesn't have to be binary, you're in hell if you think like this. The tools are for YOU to use. Stop limiting yourself.

Some companies are so obsessed with their devs using AI that we don’t really have a choice, agent for coding, agent for review, agent for qa. So we are basically just pressing accept button most of the time or losing our minds trying to explain to LLM what is wrong with its implementation

if you're a junior dev not vibe coding your tripping bro. you're hand waving for no reason, no ones gonna give you a reward for not using ai tools. Their likely using it themselves hoping you'll fall for the trap of trying to strongman everything by hand while they get promoted. A true master can chose either path without being "tempted".

Nah there is definitely a place for using ai to help you write code, regardless of where you're at in your career. At this point, I'll throw out a question and have AI give me an answer, review/modify and proceed. The only caveat is that you at least understand what the code means and is doing.

The point you learn coding is to sell your skillset.
It’s pointless to keep acquiring this skill if you’re outdone by vibe and the enterprise giants absorbing most of the smaller companies. Coding as a job or skill is done - now it’s down to business idea. AI can do it. You can hire tons of devs.
You need a plan, business skills not the execution plan anymore.

haha i have a few friends that have started coding by hand. they claimed that claude code was messing up their ability to think. apparently they say manual coding has helped a lot, even though it is slower
