No one is promising anything. It's just a giant experiment and the author explicitly tells you not to use it. I appreciate those that try new things, even it it's possibly akin to throwing s** at a wall and seeing what sticks.

Maybe it changes how we code or maybe it doesn't. Vibe coding has definitely helped me write throwaway tools that were useful.

After listening to Yegge's interview, I'm not sure this is accurate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuJyJP517Uw

For example, he makes a comment to the effect that anyone using an IDE to look at code in 2026 is a "bad engineer."

Hyperbole is very common.

No, he threw up a hyperbolic warning and then dove deep into how this is the future of all coding in the rest of his talks/writing.

It’s as good a warning as someone saying “I’m not {X} but {something blatantly showing I am X}”
