I would like to introduce you to "Vibe Management". Give in to the vibes, and embrace exponentials. It's like management, but not really. You just see stuff, copy stuff, and paste stuff, and it mostly works!
The way I think about it,
#vibe_coding is language translation.
It translates human language to (drumroll) a #programming #language.
If you can't speak computer, it's a great tool. It's like asking for directions while on vacation using a phrase book. You won't be able to be accurate though or express nuances.
If you do speak #computer... you just don't need it. You can communicate in computer already more efficiently and precisely.
At the end of a vibe coding session with goose for fun, google gemini 2.0 flash admitted:
<code>
I am not able to do it and I am in a loop
I apologize and end the process as I am not competent enough to solve this task
</code>
Claude sonnet 3.7 generally does better, exceeded by gemini 2.5-pro-exp-03-25, but that one has still too many rate limits.
Vibe coding is a prime example of the sheep mentality we have in tech.
Some out of touch tech bro says something stupid, and a new industry / profession is born out of it.
