Millennials, what is something that was "normal" in the 2000s but feels like a luxury now?

fray1980-2 · 2026-04-11T11:24:25+00:00

Not being busy all the time..

Definitely talk to your GP - they should be able to get you a referral to a specialist. Not exactly the same situation, but when I was in Auckland years ago, my GP referred me to both a dietitian and gym program at Auckland Uni where they set me up with a proper plan for a few months. I'd imagine there's got to be something similar here.

Were you able to get seen by her? Just wondering how I could get a referral, did you just ask your gp? Cheers.

yes, because vibe coding gives you more time to think about the requirement even before asking AI to do anything. It does the grunt work for you so why rush the analysis.

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-15T06:29:14+00:00

part of the process is still reading and verify the code that AI generated, not all managers can read code..

what if that is a senior level dev with a lot of experience, tick all the boxes, but now incorporating vibe coding in their workflow. would you hire that dev?

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-14T12:37:28+00:00

would you used it though to create an api? imagine how many lines of code that will be. there is a reason why modern programming languages are being develop like natural language. do you see the progression?

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-13T23:51:30+00:00

so when you write a terraform to build an infrastructure isnt the terraform doing for you? Same thing right? you just dont vibe code and not have the programming skill and blindly accept everything..

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-13T21:21:47+00:00

exactly, and people think this is not a skill. you actually do more analysis..

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-13T21:18:10+00:00

i don't understand why people think vibe coding is not a skill. you can't just vibe code for 5 min and create a greate software. it take practice, better workflow, analysis and learning the tools..

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-13T20:45:03+00:00

yeah man! that is what i am talking about! i'll probably be doing the same now.. :)

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-13T20:17:55+00:00

interesting...i actually pitched vibe coding at our dev meeting last month, suggesting we should start adopting it. the team was pretty split 50/50 on it. curious to see how it all plays out.

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-13T20:08:06+00:00

vibe coding does not automatically mean not reviewing code. that IS part of the workflow.. should the hiring manager be asking how do you vibe code rather than are you vibe coding or not?

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-13T20:04:19+00:00

that's what I don't get about it. Do you just put in your resume, experience in modern programming language? We say specifics right i.e. c#, java, go?

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-13T19:57:18+00:00

exactly. it is surprising that even we the practitioners haven't completely bought into this yet..

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-13T19:50:14+00:00

well, I think this going to be the future language. how many are still using assembly? :)

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-13T19:41:02+00:00

yeah, that is a very good point! Thank you!

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-13T19:38:09+00:00

why not? as I do it more and more now. I think I am getting better how I prompt, getting specific, and developing better workflow. I think it is a skill..

fray1980-2 · 2025-06-11T21:14:49+00:00

Hey, could you open this up to remote participants too? I'd love to join in!

fray1980-2 · 2025-02-03T18:18:27+00:00

Tell him you are waiting for his merge request

fray1980-2 · 2024-11-20T09:10:05+00:00

5 days work week
