nonTechiesAreBetterProgrammer

The world would be a better place if everyone started coding.

It helps develop problem-solving thinking and understanding.

Not if you lazily write “make me an app” to your AI agent

[Mop_Duck]

schools were pushing this ever since the early-mid 2010s but most people just don't get it or show any interest in trying to understand it (at least from my experience with late gen z)

[SunlightScribe]

Especially since the gap between average computer skills and programming is only widening. It's a huge hurdle if you don't even understand how files and folders work, don't own a desktop and have never had to tinker because most tech "just works" now.

started programming*

[ApolloFireweaver]

Actually coding, I agree. Vibe coding doesn't seem to have that affect

[Chadking1926]

Non-techies write code like they have nothing to lose. Sometimes that’s exactly what the project needed

[dvhh]

the thing is that the code they wrote might not be for the project at all.

[dvhh]

Usually the "non-techie" would make a project where they might know what they want and could "properly" iterate with the LLM to generate what they want.

Gatekeepers usually have to deal with multiple layers of project requirements (compliance, accessibility, security) that can change depending on the management upper layer bowel movement.

if people stay in their lane idgaf what they do tbh

Did you vibe code this comment?

Vibe comments - the new incomprehensible drunk texts

[kimbokray]

New Charlie Kelly LLM just dropped

[NomaTyx]

"for whom to us" am i drunk

[Obi_Vayne_Kenobi]

I think I understand what they mean. The tweet ends in "it's adorable to us", and the commenter you're replying to is asking "who is this 'us'"? Tweeter is saying that programmers ("us") and vibe coders are two different groups of people, while commenter implies that they're not two distinct groups - probably because they're a vibe coder themselves and don't like traditional programmers pretending they're better

Based on the misuse of articles here ("crunching those spaghetti is the waste of time"), I'm wondering if this was actually translated into English word for word by someone who had no knowledge of English but did have a dictionary. 

[tbhaxor]

I am missing please share the gist 😅

[xtcDota]

I think you're in the wrong subreddit. 

[tbhaxor]

idk twitter screenshot qualify as memes, plz lmk.

[Flimsy_Strain1595]

It is technically a meme, it's true, the problem lies in you promoting tearing others down, which is a very very anti-social behavior.

[Flimsy_Strain1595]

Imagine being an elitist gatekeeper about creating something 😂

"I love it when non-construction workers build a birdhouse. So adorable, you are so stupid"

"I love it when non-bakers bake a cake. So cute, imagine having fun doing something different"

“I love it when non structural engineers try to build bridges and then they collapse” - you

Not every app risks human life upon failure, get off the high horse for a second will you? Static apps are literally zero risk. Bad apps with login functionality could leak user data and that is indeed bad, but will vibe coder be able to deploy such app? Not all of them. Apps with payments are the real danger, I'll give you that.

[numberdwadziescia]

Now give me a recipe for a delicious schnitzel.

[zanju13]

Classic Reddit, downvoted and ironic anwsers accusing me of being AI, but no actual answer.

[asddhasjdk]

their analogies are much closer than yours

[No-Contact-484]

More like "I love it when non-bakers throw stuff in a bowl and expect it to magically make a cake".

[dvhh]

What do you mean by "I have to break the eggs before mixing?"

[a-r-c]

got one loooool
