buttplug.io 🍑🔌I really cannot stress enough how much of an unexpected marketing gift the term "vibe coding" has been for us.
sinister@buttplugio what the heck is vibe coding?
Patrizia@sinister @buttplugio Throwing prompts at generative AI until it does the thing you want. It's explicitly not about understanding what it does or worrying the code quality.
@patrizia @buttplugio at this rate should i even learn how to program? Its been years ive not made much progress lol
@sinister @buttplugio Only you can answer that, but I don't expect programming jobs to go away - a lot of trouble gets caused when nobody understands or cares about the code :)
Some open source projects are be plagued by users submitting AI-generated patches and security reports that are invalid, because the user didn't read, understand, or investigate what the AI spat out.

🇺🇦@patrizia @sinister @buttplugio it's been a long time since I considered myself a coder, but my feeling is that AI generated code will be acceptable for the 90% that's not edge cases. It'll have problems with the 90% of code written to deal with the edge cases.
Frank Heijkamp@fencepost @patrizia @sinister @buttplugio Programming is mostly about proper handling of edge cases. Everything else is just straight through. The straight ends are easy, it is the corners where you spend most of your time figuring out how to make it work.
