LLM's forget the context fast. Better if you learn programming the hard way. With books, either physical or PDF/EPUB's.

Neither is vibe coding. Both are AI-assisted programming, a different species. Classical mislabelling.

> The second type of vibe coding is what I am interested in. It is when you use a coding agent to build towers of complexity that go beyond what you have time to understand in any detail. I am interested in what it means to cede cognitive control to an AI.

What an absolutely abhorrent way of thinking. “I am interested in turning off my brain to create unstable Jenga towers of complexity that I’ll have no ability to fix when they inevitably fail”.

As if software in general isn’t a big enough pile of garbage already. One day, every single one of us will be seriously bitten by bugs created by this irresponsible approach.

Being able to understand what you build is a feature, not a bug.

Am I the only one who, rather than being impressed, is recoiling in horror?

Someone should start an anthology of posts claiming "I vibe-coded this toy project. Software Engineering is dead."
