I don't actually know what "vibe coding" is, but it sounds kinda bad
Like
Computers are one of the few things out there that 100% DO NOT run on vibes
I've been told what vibe coding is and, girls, it's worse than I thought
I can't even get an interview as a welder despite several years of education which necessarily includes years of hands-on experience but these fucking idiots are out here asking the goddamn lie machine to lie to them and calling that work
@coriander all programming is a grift but people have really stopped pretending with this one
@Lady Getting harder and harder to maintain my "Tech workers are working class too" stance...
@coriander well the thing is that no technology which is good makes money. so you have some people making technology which is bad, like advertising, which of course is an industry built on grifting. or you have people making technology which is good, and somehow having to convince universities or governments that it serves their bottom line to fund this thing which will never make anyone any money, which is a different kind of grift. (in the middle there is the group who works on good technology but sells it to venture capitalists, which is 100% a grift.) and this is all very normalized, because software development is not actually compatible with capitalism, to the extent that most tech workers do not even realize that this is going on and don’t understand that this isn’t how ordinary industries operate
@coriander and because everyone is already lying to each other constantly to maintain the shared illusion that software development is profitable in spite of all the evidence to the contrary, it’s very easy for some people to just add a few extra layers of lying into the mix
