"Cry me a river" is incredibly jerkish, but vibe coding can be fun. The fun stops at a lot of places where people like to take it, but for personal projects that aren't shared, being able to vibe code a quick thingy can be quite satisfying compared to having to dig into the weeds and get pulled away from the bigger picture.

Like I had language models help me set up the build.gradle for a Minecraft modding project, and it made that build system a bit less scary to me, faster than I could've learned it from scratch. And it helped me focus on modding, rather than setting up boilerplate for nearly as long as I'd have needed to in the past.
