"we took work that could have been used to pay a significantly more competent human and outsourced it to a machine instead! Is the result almost certainly worse? YES! Did we lose a ton of functionality in the process because we can't trust this machine to not cause huge security concerns? YES! Will anyone with half a brain hate us even more for doing this? YES!

Will we ultimately pay twice as much for the same thing when we have to employ a team who could have been working on other projects to come clean up the mess that some idiot executive thought was a great idea?

HELL YES!"

Everyone is cheering on all the vibe coded other software this past week. Wait you mean the reason they were cheering was simply because they wanted to steal stuff?

We were cheering because it was done by people as a form of "fuck you" against companies screwing consumers over and people who did it aren't multi million dollar companies which are able to hire best programmers to make the best product, but instead choose to save every last penny at the expense of your average Joe.

Oh and bragging about vibe coding, there is that too.

Check out this amazing kernel level anti cheat system we spewed out with AI and barely reviewed! Don’t worry, we included “make no mistakes” in every prompt.

Yes. We are extremely proud of this accomplishment. It stands as a testament to the hard work, dedication, and unwavering commitment demonstrated across our organization. This milestone not only validates our strategic vision but also highlights our ability to achieve meaningful outcomes through collaboration, resilience, and a focus on excellence. We are excited by what this achievement represents and optimistic about the opportunities it creates for the future. Shall I add more about the proudness?

I asked AI to write me a statement about being proud but it doesn't look ai enough.
