a couple of months ago i asked about this one of local Forbes editors and they explained this phenomenon as "because it is expected to code by hand but managing to vibe anything is amazing". i decided not to continue this conversation because that's fucking stupid

    “because it is expected to code by hand but managing to vibe anything is amazing”.

    I don't think it's wise to stake the future of computing on "It's not that the bear dances well, it's that the bear dances at all."

    It's not really stupid. Things that are unusual are more noticeable, and garner more comment. We've grown used to devs tirelessly doing what they do, to the point most people don't think about where their software comes from, but a machine sort of doing it (poorly, so very poorly) is novel, so people talk about it.

    Currently, software mostly working as it should is the norm, so people don't talk about it much. When the wave of slopcoded disasters starts to grow, people will talk about it, because software is suddenly not working as it should.

    and yet no one is celebrating a piece of software well done
