RE: https://social.coop/@cwebber/116348093202515122This is a good read. I haven't used a coding assistant yet. I've reviewed vibe coded code and I've reviewed code written by a senior engineer following a similar process to @mttaggart. The code for the vibe-coded software was abysmal. It mostly didn't work.But an engineer following a solid process even with safeguards still came up with pretty bad code. It was wordy to the extreme and it didn't have near enough abstraction. The code it created functioned but it was unmaintainable. PR reviews took legit three times as long.It's fantastic at generating a lot of code but generating code is not the only cost in software.RT: https://social.coop/users/cwebber/statuses/116348093202515122
