it's hilarious how a very small number of people have been in my mentions trying to argue that actually vibecoding is the future of programming, the next iteration of abstraction...
bruh, you only think that because you don't give a shit. you're not doing coding at a higher level of abstraction, that would require abstraction to even occur. you're asking a fancy markov chain to output slop in the shape of a program and calling it work.
and it's only even taken on because so many programmers don't give a shit about producing code with 6 finger hands and almost-legible letters. it compiles and doesn't immediately crash, don't it?

The most surreal thing about AI coding shit taking on is the revelation that so many people who do this thing that I love, seem to have no care for the craft at all. Even people who I would have pointed at, years ago, as those who clearly care. And I know it has always been Just A Job for many people, but holy shit, do you even care a little bit?
We humans are not merely bad at it, we have people who have been doing the work with no desire to be good at it in the first place.
