    It’s amazing to me because half of this vibe coded shit is just regurgitated open source code. You can literally just install an open source tool and it will do half of the work for you … Or you can vive code a substantially worse copy of the open source project

    “You must be able to read code faster than you write it, spotting hallucinations, security vulnerabilities, and logic errors instantly.”

    I’ve seldomly come across a more delusional statement…

    “Prompt engineer” is a legitimate profession to people who think “how fast you can type Python” is what determines the skill level of an actual programmer.

      For real. I type like a boomer, but I never had any problems at uni or work (as a developer). It’s not about how fast you’re typing but what you’re typing. And any good developer generally spends more time thinking or testing than typing.

      Bur bad managers can’t accept this, they need dumb metrics like typing speed, added lines of code, useless certificates, etc

      When people type 70wpm andit it requires thier full attention, it seems intuitive that this is a bottleneck. I just don’t believe that’s the typical state of affairs for most devs. Most management, sure.

      I’m not saying there aren’t some code that get written that is braindead simple and have a lot of keystrokes (builders come to mind) but modern IDEs will generate them for you. We already had a plethora of deterministic code generation tools at our fingertips.

        When you can type at 70wpm you can only do that when you’re copying text or taking dictation, maybe at double speed. Detailed thought doesn’t come at even 20wpm

        I learnt to touch type quickly, the only thing I type at that speed now is my passphrases

      Strongly reconsidering respecing my career into this. But there’s a risk it’ll just become “some junior with Dunning Kruger vibe coded this shite, now you have to fix it”

        If you were assessing a company you would give them your report at the end and leave. It’s their problem to fix it

    We are all in on AI at work finally. I want to keep my job so I guess I have to stop being a Luddite.

    I am mortgaging my career though. Letting AI do the work saps my problem solving skills and I lose what I have spent my whole career building.

    Name and shame them. Who are they? just that we can about their “services”
