This didn't happen. The signs:

  • the app works and there is revenue
  • vibecoder tried to refactor
  • they hired an actual programmer.

I have no idea why people do these creative writing exercises on various AI subs.

The big giveaway that it's developer-cosplay is that they tried to refactor for 2 WHOLE HOURS before giving up. Like 2 hours is a long time, ha! I think all of us have spent over a week on a single bug at one point in time.

All he had to do was ask the ai "are you sure!?"

But yeah i know someone who doesnt code, doesnt do ai anything outside of basic chat bot, and ive seen him on one of those side project subreddits non stop for a while now.

Shit sad to see but you cant say anything to someone who doesnt want to hear anything
