Been coding for about 30 years now, am I the only one who still LIKES to code? Who still LIKES to try writing a new approach to something, watching it fail, figuring out what went wrong, taking notes, learning from mistakes, and noticing improvements in their own code? Cuz it’s starting to feel like it. Web development already lost me with the culture of “glue a bunch of bulky shit together that you didn’t write and call yourself a ‘dev’ to the ladies” but this AI shit is getting absurd. And it doesn’t even work! Look at how shitty all the operating systems are getting. Look at all the total slop on the app stores. It’s depressing as hell.
I love coding and learning new languages. I’d rather move to another industry than reviewing vibe coded crap all day long.
Inb4 the agents change the tests to pass the CI.
assert(true);
assert(true);
assert(true);
assert(true);
assert(true);
None of this actually proves that they aren’t writing slop. It just proves that the slop that they’ve written passes your tests.
Never ask a vibe coder about their code’s performance.
This never happens to me, I swear. Just, gimme a second… Tell me how good I am. I’m so right. Say it. Almost there.
Hey, you leave the legend, John Candy, outta this! 🥰
