How To Be A Vibe Coder

Turns out the most advanced AI was just 700 people in a trenchcoat. Builder.ai allegedly sold "AI" that was actually just outsourced developers pretending to be Natasha the chatbot. The classic "artificial" intelligence that's actually just regular intelligence with extra steps. Next revelation: ChatGPT is just a guy named Greg in a basement with really fast typing skills.

OH. MY. GOD. This is the most SPECTACULAR self-own in tech history! 💀 Someone brags they "made an entire website with ChatGPT" (revolutionary, groundbreaking, Nobel Prize material 🙄) only to share their masterpiece via a LOCAL FILE PATH that only exists on THEIR computer! That's like saying "I baked you a cake" and then sending a picture of your refrigerator! The absolute DRAMA of thinking AI stole our jobs while not understanding how the internet works is just *chef's kiss* magnificent. Honey, if you can't tell the difference between a URL and a file path, programmers' jobs are safer than diamonds in a volcano!

Behold, the birth of a new species: the Vibecoder ! Doesn't code, doesn't read code, thinks JS is a "mystery," but somehow is still a "dev" with an app "in production." The mental gymnastics here deserve a gold medal. "Engineering and design and communication, just not coding" — right, and I'm a surgeon who doesn't cut people open but has great bedside manner. This is what happens when LinkedIn influencers evolve their final form. Next they'll tell us typing is just a social construct and Git commits are merely suggestions.

The traffic light is literally hanging by a thread but still functioning—just like that spaghetti code you wrote at 3 AM with 17 nested if-statements and zero comments. Sure, it violates every engineering principle known to mankind, but the unit tests pass! That red light stopping traffic is the digital equivalent of your monstrosity somehow preventing production crashes while your tech lead silently weeps during code review.

Oh look, it's the compiler we all secretly want but are too afraid to admit! The "AI C Compiler" (aicc) is basically what happens when you combine a programmer's desperation with their unwillingness to learn proper memory management. Instead of fixing your semicolons and memory leaks like a responsible adult, just throw your garbage code at ChatGPT and pray! "Will your code compile? Will it be fast or slow? Will it have memory leaks?" Who knows! It's like playing Russian roulette with your codebase, except all chambers are loaded and the gun is pointed at your production server. The best part? You don't even need to understand what you're doing anymore! Just make vague gestures at your requirements and let AI figure it out. Programming degree? Waste of money. Stack Overflow? Ancient history. Just whisper sweet nothings to the machine and watch it spit out code that's probably better than yours anyway.

Management: "Embrace AI tools to boost productivity!" Team: "Let's use AI to draft hilarious resignation letters!" Nothing says "our workplace is thriving" quite like your entire biomedical research team spending company time crafting fake pirate-themed resignation letters. The irony is just *chef's kiss* - they're technically following orders while simultaneously planning their escape routes. Corporate AI initiatives backfiring into a festival of fantasy quitting scenarios might be the most honest performance review feedback ever delivered.
