ok , rant time, from a guy who doesnt have a problem with llms
i hate vibe coding.
when it was first mentioned, i pictured people slapping somethjng together at hone for some weird niche use they have, that no one cares about. but no, rheu want to throw it upon the world and take credit for creating something.
they slam open source projects with useless commits so they can say "look at me, look at me"
In contrast, i have been professionally developing software for over 27 years and i have created stuff at home that i tell no one about. i have contributed to open source and told no one. (unless a groip of enthusiasts asked me to fix something).
i just dont understand the mindset of these people who use llms to say "please help me contribute to the linux kernel so i can tell people i did something"
It's truly confounding
