There are two camps in this industry and I have the chance to meet both.
- There are those for whom coding is a hobby, an art project, an identity. These are the people who debate tabs vs spaces or use Vim.
- There are those for whom coding is a way to build things. Their dopamine comes from the end product and seeing people use it. They couldn't care less about tabs vs spaces.
I'm in the second camp. Vibe coding has removed all the shitty parts of coding. Like I hate figuring out how to do this esoteric thing in this library. Wading through docs and hitting the CI constantly - its a pain. Not fun.
