There's an anecdote that comes up in software about people working on missile software not caring about memory leaks because it's going to explode anyway before that becomes an issue.

Who cares about bugs in your software if it's a hobby project that's going to blow up anyway.

Also, including Claude doesn't inherently mean vibe coded, it can be for writing tests, small components, or debugging.

Using an LLM to write tests and small components is still vibe coding.

Wikipedia says:

Vibe coding involves accepting AI-generated code without reviewing it,

If you are using LLMs to write e.g. small components, then you are typically understanding the structure of the program, and reviewing it.

[–] AnyOldName3@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

There's nothing inherent to small components to suggest that you have to review them. If they're small, it's easier to tell yourself that the LLM probably got them right and you're justified in not checking.

Listen to me. I do code for a living. Nobody want to write HTML

spoilerBecause Australia is Australia I'll preface this with: this is a joke. Any depictions of high profile/high net-worth individuals in my area are strictly fictional and any resemblances are merely coincidental.

Anyone got some high profile/high net-worth individuals in my area?

just go to a junkyard and get some dead cars if you just need something to blow up.

[–] Zozano@aussie.zone 8 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

So do I put the CEO's inside the cars?
