Vibe coding will fill in more "new feature" checkboxes, faster, but the level of quality averages out, to something often mediocre, or worse (like all my OSS projects in which I experiment; because such projects are the training data). It skips liberally on maintainability, accessibility, security and privacy considerations.

Code is a liability, I want to have less of it at a higher abstraction level (for which natural language isn't a good fit due to inherent ambiguity). For products, simplicity and user utility is how I approach the problem when given wiggle room.

We are on HN, so there's bound to be many startup people that only need to bang out features to lure in users and then pass on that pile further onto someone else, when they cash out.

What I have seen however, are mid-managers+ that haven't coded in a decade or so, and now with LLMs they feel that they deliver equal quality results, whereas they have been so long out of the game and haven't picked up the modern skills on how to maintain and build applications.
