       The hidden beauty of vibe coding"It passed all the unit tests, the shape of the code looks right," he said. It's 3.7x more lines of code that performs 2,000 times worse than the actual SQLite. Two thousand times worse for a database is a non-viable product. It's a dumpster fire. Throw it away. All that money you spent on it is worthless."https://www.theregister.com/2026/03/17/ai_businesses_faking_it_reckoning_coming_codestrap/

       @gerrymcgovern Vibe coding is fine as long as you use it for personal projects or for proofs of concept. As soon as you start using it for "real" applications, you lost.

       @PatrickTingen @gerrymcgovern "vibe coding" is a euphemism for plagiarism. even for personal projects or proofs of concept, plagiarism is unethical and impermissible. not to mention there's substantial cost and harm for every single prompt.

       @gerrymcgovern You love to see it:"Insurers, he said, are already lobbying state-level insurance regulators to win a carve-out in business insurance liability policies so they are not obligated to cover AI-related workflows. "That kills the whole system," Deeks said."Someone will be left holding the bag when slop kills someone, bankrupts a business, or causes serious damage. Insurers will make sure it isn't them.
