do any of these apps really exist or is it just some a shit gui in a wrapper? i ve seen so many memes about it now but never really saw any of the apps.

They do exist. You are made to use stuff like cursor at many workplaces now for "productivity"

well ok. but i mean when those vibe coders post "i wrote an entire app in x hours" i always imagine it is an app that anyone can actually take a look at..like public in appstore or some webapp. too high expectations?/

The VP of software engineering at my current company just announced that the goal is to have 30% or more of all code being written by AI by next year...

Either he or the company will be gone in 2 years.

Yep, I’d be looking for another job if I were them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

I was looking for another job even before this announcement was made.

Already working on it. I'm actively interviewing at other companies.

"vibe coded/coding" means using something like Chat-gpt to output code, if anyone is wondering.

using something like Chat-gpt to ..

.. write your entire project.

I think we decided to call them Sloppers. 'vibe'-coding is way too charitable.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

I like "sloppers". Back in the day these would be script-kiddies/ skiddies but that's even ascribing way too much effort compared to "vibe coding."

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Sloppers is much better. vibe-coding should be more like actually coding, but like having a crazy-ass aesthetic as your desktop or listening to some banger music or something like that. Also the code comments should be 'vibes-based', aka only intuition can decipher what the comment says.

#function really whips a llama's ass

TIL people use the term vibe coding unironically.
