Software developers have been indifferent for a long time. Vibecoding is just the logical conclusion.

The Inevitability of Vibecoding

Why nobody cares if their chatbot can even write correct code.

Why did they call it "vibecoding" when "slopware development" was right there?
@vtrlx Honestly "vibecoding" fits slightly better imo just because it sounds so much dumber.

@vtrlx It's called "sloppering".

I slopper
you slopper
he/she/it sloppers

Example usages:

"He sloppered a broken prototype together."
"Why are you sloppering again? Respect your craft!"
"On LinkedIn they are way too much into sloppering. They basically slopper all over the place."

@sheogorath Thank you for the insight Sheogorath, Daedric Prince of Madness.
@vtrlx
The term was created by genAI fans I think
@vtrlx they asked chat gpt for a name
@vtrlx vibecoding SHOULD be what we call coding on a non commercial or private project where there's 0 pressure and you're partaking of your favorite libation
@vtrlx but they ruined it
