My week starts with a request: "I need a server to deploy to production, but the devs have no idea how to do it. They don't know how to use the terminal, they don’t know how to handle certificates, nothing. They need to be able to click a few buttons and deploy directly to production. They're Vibe Coding experts."

Welcome to 2026.

@stefano There's a clear misuse of the term "devs".

@zeitverschreib That's the real problem. People are starting to accept the idea that a dev is actually a "vibe coder".

This is (extremely) dangerous.

@stefano @zeitverschreib I guess it also depends, the tool in itself can be put into good use, if a skilled developer is able to steer it in the right direction. I also had a fair share of “why does my code not work in production” before AI, its a lot to do with the mindset of the person.

@stefano @zeitverschreib And how it's called a dev that takes their time to peruse docs, write tests and implent stuff by hand? Asking for the metaphorical friend...
