nandeEbisuThere’s an anecdote that comes up in software about people working on missile software not caring about memory leaks because it’s going to explode anyway before that becomes an issue.
Who cares about bugs in your software if it’s a hobby project that’s going to blow up anyway.
Also, including Claude doesn’t inherently mean vibe coded, it can be for writing tests, small components, or debugging.
Claude writes better code than most humans and a lot faster
I disagree about better code. Claude has been pretty bad at understanding external context and deriving why you’re doing something from the implementation. This can result in wonky structure that you need to fix, or at the very least tell Claude to redo over and over untill it looks clean and organized.
