Appeal to authority. Linus was always a fucking moron.

A calculator isn’t a sycophant text extruder offered by megacorps via predatory tactics and doesn’t require half a little of water to operate last time I checked

Yeah dude licking corporate boot is so based

“come on bro you’re just holding it wrong”

it’s not gonna last. if you tune out of the hype and actually look at some hard data, vibecoding stops looking so hot: https://codemanship.wordpress.com/2026/08/12/ai-software-development-what-does-the-data-say/

the current token costs are unsustainable also. the only ones making bank right now are the shovel sellers: https://isaiprofitable.com/

personally i’m working on hand-rewriting several projects vibecoded out by a non-dev in a small shop. not only is a lot of this straight up broken nonsense, the amount of tech debt is staggering. previous job wasn’t better, i had to spend more time fixing slop from former coworkers than actually introducing new features. keep your skills sharp and persevere. we’ll get through this.

tl;dr: this, too, shall pass. but holy shit.
