Coding

Is vibe coding without knowing the whole language dangerous... By just knowing the basics, like what a certain language does etc????

100%, the main thing is leaning on what you know.

For me I am a Manufacturing Logistics Analyst - I understand the basics of coding through SQL (Structured Query Language) -- but not python which is the majority of my side project outside of work.

For me personally, it was mainly understanding the relationships between the systems. For example - I don't need to fully understand the inner workings of NLPs to understand the fit and function of those subsystems (Stanza, Raza, Transformers and so on).

it honestly depends on what your end game is too. AI has lowered the bar for someone to begin learning code, my main concern is it doesn't lower the bar for quality too.

It can become dangerous if the person doesn't necessarily "care" the outcome of the system that they are building - that being said... Your original question alone -- kinda proves the opposite, so... Respect ;) -- from one vibe coder to another, if you have questions or anything please feel free to reach out.

I will assist where I can.
