    I feel like we’ll see this for real with people letting “AI” do their “thinking”.

        What does vibe coding mean? Is it the opposite of hard coding where you don’t put any thought into or something like that?

          Vibe coding is basically asking an AI “Write a program that does [x]”. You’re just babysitting a computer while letting the AI do most of the work.

            Oh thank you, that makes sense. I definitely understand why is popping up so much with the raise of Ai and a lot of people pushing you to use it.

            I just an post on twitter about a guy trying to put out an announcement about how “its coming for your job” type thing and saying how he has built several full functioning apps with Ai and they’re all performing flawlessly and shit. Then it was promoting you to buy subscriptions to the Ai stuff and I felt like it was a bit of a veiled ad and interesting marketing push.

              Don’t get me wrong, AI code is decent and can do what you want if your instructions are specific enough. The problem is people pasting code into their terminal and not understanding what it does.

                I’m sure it can, but the key is learning first before just cut and pasting stuff. I’m new to a lot of stuff and more interested in learning about media stacks, NAS, self hosting and that sort of thing than Ai coding but maybe there’s a use case I’m not aware of yet.

                Thanks for the info!
