Know The Difference: Hobby vs Production

Content Raphael Ernani Rodrigues 6h Reproducing the bug in my local environment

Imagine raising TWO HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS to build your SaaS empire, only to discover your internal team slapped together the same tool in 14 days using duct tape and caffeine. The sheer AUDACITY of that excited developer on the left, proudly announcing they "vibe coded" a solution while the VC-funded founder sits there contemplating every life choice that led to this moment. Plot twist: that internal tool is probably held together by a single SQL query, three bash scripts, and pure spite—but hey, it works! Meanwhile, the $200M version is still in its third sprint planning meeting discussing whether to use microservices or a monolith. The real tragedy? The internal tool will become production because "it's just temporary" (narrator: it was never temporary). Fast forward 2 months and that vibe-coded masterpiece is now the company's core infrastructure with zero documentation, no tests, and the original developer just gave their two weeks notice. Godspeed! 🫡

Content OPS DUE BY Kelly Kochanski, Phillip Remaker and Alec Cawley upvoted 2h X Carey Aydelotte Follow humanish Sun Will software engineers ever stop being in demand? There are two schools of thought. Those with a background in business see developers as commodities and fully believe that programmers will program themselves out of a job field. The idea is that in some distant future, jobs like project manager, product manager, and marketing manager will still be critical but programmers themselves will be extinct as a result of the tools they created. The other school of thought is hard to understand because the programmers are laughing so hard they can't talk. 13.4K views View 964 upvotes View 4 shares WERE S You, Phillip Remaker, Michael Jorgensen and 7 more upvoted this 1 964 I G4 D 34 2 000
